If this doesn't really happen I will weep.

Re: Oh! mr_yeti November 12 2004, 06:32:40 UTC

If what doesn't really happen?
i hardly think the pen would be good for the shark.
the email has already been sent, if that's what you're referring to.
there are some things i left out, like the fact this email i sent was forwarded to many people in my company with the following text:

Okay,
Someone in my office kidnapped my pen and I'm not happy about it. I'm asking for complete cooperation in bringing my pen back to my desk safely. As far as the ransom note goes, I don't negotiate with terrorists. If anyone hears anything mentioned, ple
ase contact the police, FBI, or call my extension as soon as possible.

amusing.

I mis-read. I thought you only planned on sending the note. Now I see the line where you said you really sent it. This is good, because I didn't want to come to work all red-eyed and sniffly.

Also, for some reason, I couldn't stop laughing at that shark image last night. I went into fits.

Re: Oh! mr_yeti November 12 2004, 15:43:12 UTC

no, i misspoke. the sentence you refer to contains the qualifier 'how much fun i could have,' which does not imply that the email had actually been sent.

i'm glad someone else sees the humour in sharks.
also, here is a follow-up email, sent 15 minutes after i left work yesterday by my friend steve. the email is entitled NON COMPLIANCE:

WE NOW KNOW THAT YOU HAVE DECIDED TO SCOFF AT OUR DEMANDS. CLEARLY THE KNOWLEDGE THAT YOUR PEN IS IN MORTAL PERIL IS INSUFFICIENT TO MOTIVATE YOU TO TAKE THE PROPER ACTION. FOR YOUR INSOLENCE YOU MUST SUFFER A PENALTY. THE PRICE FOR YOUR PENS SAFE RETURN NOW STANDS AT 1 AMERICAN DOLLAR AND ONE UTAH STATE COMMEMORATIVE QUARTER. ANY FURTHER DEFIANCE OF OUR DEMANDS WILL RESULT IN SUBSEQUENT PENALTIES TO BE EXACTED UPON YOUR PEN. CONTINUED NON-COMPLIANCE WILL CONSTITUTE THE ULTIMATE MISTAKE!! ANY ATTEMPT TO LOCATE YOUR PEN IS FUTILE AS OUR KNIGHT MOVES ARE INDECIPHERABLE. THINK CAREFULLY AND CHOOSE WISELY FOR THE SAKE OF YOUR PEN, YOURSELF, AND INDEED YOUR COUNTRY!!

Re: Oh! mr_yeti November 12 2004, 15:44:19 UTC

i should also note that the 'KNIGHT MOVES' is a clue.
my desk is a knight's move away from this person in our chessboard of cubicles.

Hilarious.

Re: Oh! hotshotrobot November 12 2004, 23:55:58 UTC

I thought maybe that was a clue that the pen was being hidden behind a Bob Seger CD, but then i remembered that the song is spelled "Night Moves."

Re: Oh! mr_yeti November 13 2004, 00:28:16 UTC

all things are hidden behind bob seger cds, which would not make that a very good clue.

Re: Oh! saaramyrene November 12 2004, 16:49:34 UTC

Steve! Please kiss Steve for me.

Also, hey - I saw the humor in the shark. I was just busy being shocked by the other stuff.

This entire thing is fucking brilliant.

Re: Oh! mr_yeti November 12 2004, 16:59:38 UTC

kiss steve yourself, woman!
i have a delightful and inky conclusion planned for all of this. stay tuned.

Fine. saaramyrene November 12 2004, 17:02:17 UTC

Bring me Steve, and I will kiss him.

Re: Oh! blchandler November 13 2004, 03:20:59 UTC

I am forever delighted.

Re: Oh! mr_yeti November 12 2004, 17:11:05 UTC

what other stuff are you talking -- OH, that other stuff.
gotcha.

Re: Oh! saaramyrene November 12 2004, 17:13:11 UTC

Chad, Chad, Chad. Often, you can be so very slow.
