I immigrated to the US many decades ago. A bit over a decade later, I
thought it was time to do the citizenship thing. I.N.S. gals TELLS me
I should change my name because it is just too long for the US.

You see my full name is composed of 26 letters. My initials spells BEST.

I respectfully told her I would only change my name is she could
guaranty I would be the only one by the name of Dino Ferrari. She was
not amused. Neither was I.

Impertinently Yours,
