Coupla thangs

A friend and I were talking about the many speed traps that were operating around here Easter day. It occurred to me that obviously, the local police don't know the meaning of the holiday. It is a day of celebrating the life of Jesus - and a day to celebrate his death as a cleansing of our sins.

And speeding IS a sin. Right? Oh, I'm SURE they were just issuing warnings.

I had something else I wanted to write about here, but I forgot what it was.

My sister Kim was kind enough to send me a "money angel" via email yesterday. Isn't that sweet? Yes, until you read further:

This is a money angel
Pass it to 6 of your good friends and be rich in 4 Days.
Pass it to 12 of your good friends and be rich in 2 Days.

So far, it's like any other forward. Until:

I am not joking. If u delete it you will beg. Trust me!!!

So, let me get this straight. My sister is sending me something with a FW: in the subject line, (which she knows I will delete) asking me to forward it, (which she knows I don't do) or else... my financial ruination?

Thanks sis. ;)

That's a great pic you have there, of The Man hanging on! Funny.

I particularly liked the thing you forgot to write. I imagined it being so funny, I actually peed myself. I'm not kidding.

I always have funny shit I want to post on my blog, then I log onto the computer and forget what the hell it was.

Can you just feel the love? Don't take it personally. Just sibling rivalry rearing its ugly head.

There should be a law allowing you to file charges against people who forward chain letters. Unless it's your sister, of course.

What annoys me most with the FW emails is when those who send them actually believe they are corresponding with me. Watch my lips > NO. YOU'RE. NOT. <

They piss me off so much so that I have dubbed the FW emails as "FuckWit" emails and I attach that name to the sender as well.

Of course, I wouldn't go that far if it was sent by my sister - unless it was my SPECIAL sister.

I love the picture in this post!

I hate "FW" letters. Hate them.

The Jebus pitcute is pretty awesome though.

What sister? I never saw no sister. Was she hiding in the janitor's closet all during high school or sumpin'?

What, you mean that Easter is not about rabbits, chocolate, spring and eggs? Wow, I have been celebrating the wrong holiday...haha. Maybe the driver's were late to an Easter egg hunt?

Love the pic, that is so perfect for your post.

Hate the FWs too...mostly just delete them, although there are a few I have to correct so that my friends and family don't end up deleting necessary files off their hard drive and then sending it on to their entire address book to do the same.
