I'm sorry, the weasel is in Nevada. He left last Tuesday so he could marry that coyote he's been seeing for the last three months. Apparently her father's not to happy about it, not that I blame him. How would you feel if your only daughter married a weasel? If you want to get in touch with him, his e-mail is TedtheWeasel01.at.yahoo.com.

From: Brian

I see. Don't be late again or I will physically harm you, and to make matters worse, while you're in the hospital recovering from the severe beating, I'll steal your wife and run off to Europe.

From: Tom Sorrell
To: Brian
Subject: re: answer

You can have my wife, I have the gnomes to keep me company.

Just so you know, while you were gone yesterday, I'm answered the phone like this: "Bob's Country Bunker, Bob speaking."

The guy from compliance was not amused. Expect to hear from him ny the end of the week.

--

From: Brian

That might actually make sense if your name was Bob.

FUN WITH REAL E-MAIL.

From: Linda
To: Tom Sorrell
Subject: Fax

Tom, did that fax I brought down go thru yet?

--

From: Tom Sorrell
To: Linda
Subject: Subject: The Lord of the Fax, Part II: The Two Pages

In our last episode (LOTF, Part I - The Fellowship of the Fax), Linda the Blonde, a wise Sales Assistant, walked down to the cage of doom and attempted to send a fax. When the fax would not go, Linda received help from Barb-o the Old, and Thomas Sorodo, a young wire hobbit. After several tries, the fax still did not go through.

Linda, having quite a bit of work to do, had to retreat back to her desk, while Barb-o the Old made a trip to the bathroom, thus the fellowship was broken. The task now rests solely in the hands of Thomas Sorodo. It is his duty to see that the two pages of the fax make it safely to the good people on the other end.

Along the way, he will face many perils, including the ops manager, the fax machine itself, and the busy phone lines of the receivers.

The quest he has undertaken will be long and perilous, but he will prevail. The fate of Middle Building depends on it.

Coming soon: The Lord of the Fax, Part III: The Return of the Fax (...to Linda because it transmitted successfully.)

Why didn't you shave today?

Because I'm sick of the gnomes...

From: Brian

subject: re: Tom

What? Gnomes?

--

From: Tom Sorrell
To: Brian
Subject: re: Tom

The gnomes that live in the storage room. Every time I go back there, they bum rush me and pin me to the ground. Then each of them take turns rubbing my face and telling me how smooth it is. When I don't shave, they leave me alone.

From: Brian
To: Tom Sorrell
Subject: re: Tom

Is that all they touch?

--

From: Tom Sorrell

From: Stephanie
To: Tom Sorrell
Subject: Taco Bell

Are you and Eric going to Taco Bell for lunch today???

--

From: Tom Sorrell
To: Stephanie
Subject: re: Taco Bell

Yes we are, but I'm not getting you anything.

--

From: Stephanie
To: Tom Sorrell
Subject: re: Taco Bell

WHY NOT!?

--

From: Tom Sorrell
To: Stephanie
Subject: re: Taco Bell

Because I don't want Eric's wife to get hurt or die.

--

From: Stephanie
To: Tom Sorrell
Subject: re: Taco Bell

WHAT??????

--

From: Tom Sorrell
To: Stephanie
Subject: re: Taco Bell

Eric's car doesn't have any cupholders so when we come back from Taco Bell, I have to hold both sodas so Eric can drive. If I get YOU something, that means I have to hold your soda with my feet. If I hold it with my feet, it will likely spill, and let's not forget that it's about ten degrees outside. So, if the soda spills, it will freeze on the floor of his car creating a spot of ice that will be invisible to the naked eye. This means the next time Eric's wife gets in the car, she'll slip on that spot of ice, hit her head on the door, and suffer a concussion. Then, Eric will have to take the time to drive her to the hospital, but the doctor will read her chart wrong because he needs glasses but is too stubborn to admit it and he'll send her into immediate brain surgery which he'll screw up (because of his need for glasses) and then she'll die and Eric will be alone.

Do you REALLY want Eric to go through all of that!?

You freaking sadist...
