Never Drink And E-Mail
12am and I’m slipping into unconsciousness in my nice warm bed when my Black Berry suddenly begins to vibrate wildly, jostling me back into cruel, vivid reality. I reach over and press the glowing pearl to silence the obnoxious clatter, certain that a “code red” emergency must have occurred at work, but upon inspection am greeted by the following e-mail from a co-worker:
Gentlemen ! Thanks all. We as a team(All) did what we always do ? Kick A– ! Remember ! NT Admin’s, not
team 1/2.. Game Ball goes to Bryan M. Awsome Man!!!
Also our Recon Marine(special forces) in CLT! Damm the reason fo dis email is this !!!BRETT FAVRE IS THE GREATEST QB EVER!!!!! And if your are under 30(with a few exception) YOUR COMMENT IS NOT RECOGNIZE OR RELEVANT.
a humble rada. fo fo y’all doin’ up way up in here?!?! hizzahhhhhFavREEE
Okay, this message gets bonus points for being the most entertaining e-mail I’ve received all year, but it also serves as a prime example why one does not mix alcohol and text messaging. It’s well known that Clark (his name has been changed to protect th^H^H^H ah…what the hell. His real name is Clive) loves his tequila. He also loves him some football. When you mix the two together then throw in modern technology you’re bound to receive some glorious e-mails, especially when his team wins a Thursday night game in overtime.

…and I’m still wondering why I didn’t get the “game ball” for the work I did during last night’s release.
