What if
... the only way you had to get paid was taken away from you?
...the only way you had to maintain friendships without having to pick up the phone and initiate conversation was taken away from you?
...the only way to receive daily reminders about how you should sign up for "Classmates.Com, Microsoft Office, and Cialis" was taken away from you?
...you were never ever ever able to receive chain mail that said, "If you don't send this out to atleast 20 people you will not...
- have your crush kiss you
- receive $1,000 from Bill Gates
- help Sandeep in Calcutta receive a new kidney and elbow
That's what happens when you lose e-mail privileges
My website has not been letting me send e-mails from it for the last 2 weeks. Horrid, I tells ya. Damper Pamper on all my plans. I called tech support and "David" offered to help me.
"Sorry David, I'm sure you're great and all and you probably think you know what you're doing. But I'd rather talk to Davesh or Davinder. Someone with an Indian accent so thick that just talking to him raises the terror level alert."
Just wait til they start charging for emails like they do with letters.
"For 37 cents you can send that e-mail out to a loved one, complete with Commemorative Elvis Emoticons!"
I was in line at the post office, and I overheard a lady complaining about the price of a stamp. First off.. it's 37 cents. Any time you can still pay for something in copper? You win. If you could buy a car with pennies, we'd all show up at the Honda dealership with our piggybanks.
"Throw in Onstar and I'll crack this baby wide open!"
I think we complain about the price of stamps because the price is permanently fixed on there. Right in the corner "37 cents USA". I think we'd all second-guess any purchase we've ever made if the price was permanently labeled on there.
"Twenty-five dollars for an I Love Clay Aiken T-shirt?"
What if the sad thing about that last line was that it was true?

I would rather show up at the Ford or GM dealership and buy something that left dead trees and squirrels in its' wake. A few extra days of summer doesn't bother me any! Pennies and nickels make great washers when a hole is drilled in them. A zinc washer is about seven cents at Home Depot.
Are we suppose to comments about your post or just make random weird ass comments. I am cool with doing either, just let me know. I am just somewhat confused because I originally thought we were making comments that tied into your entry, but tombotts comments seem to be completely random and have nothing to do with your blog whatsoever. If you have a preferance for either of these styles of comments, let me know.
Oh, I guess the part about paying for a car with pennies was someone elses post. I'll try to watch it next time.
No you are right, he did mention paying for cars in pennies. But most of your comments seem to be off topic and totally out of the blue. Which has left me confused.
