If there are any preferences for foreign characters or diacritical marks in the upper ASCII character locations, let me know. If there are any unusual idiosyncrasies in the handwriting not captured by the text below, then include samples of it.

Please provide all samples on white, unlined 8.5" x 11" paper. Black ink is better than blue, but blue is OK if that's all you have. Include a phone number or other way to reach you in case there is something missing or if I have questions. Expect a turn-around time of about 1 to 2 weeks from the time I receive your samples.

Send handwriting samples, along with a check for $99, to:

the quick brown fox jumps over a lazy dog
A yellow Hertz taxicab, not khaki, is the norm.
Khrushchev will openly vanquish the junta in Iraq.
I will zip up a xerox of a virtuoso raj.
A yoga guru will hew the yucca with a hacksaw.
Six deaf Navajo reject stiff tax bills.
The keynote pharaoh did drop a shoe in Cuba.
The cottonwood canoe has a hotrod motor and room for a broke rabbi.
You hope havoc and chaos will ebb when you tattoo a kiwi at a zoo.

The somewhat worthwhile offbeat project employs an eloquent cowboy. It is 
a biography and bibliography of a clubhouse jobholder who eats offensive 
toxic cabbage and frozen crocodile meat, and drinks booze. Lack of alcohol 
prohibition caused bluebook cohesion fibrosis. He must then escape a downpour 
by entering the weatherproof townhouse. A sojourn in an aboveground turbojet 
whirlpool ends with a dozen buckshot croquet balls.
