That's "e-mail", as in, "electronic mail", which is sent over THE INTERNET.
As many of you know, I have a penchant for slight sarcasm and occasional humor. Here are some
examples I dug up from the CPF archives:
"Issue!" -- I taunt a KPMG newbie with some unorthodox answers to his silly question.
"Vegas" -- the world-famous "your nuts" e-mail thread.
"Capriles Captures Worsman Title" -- just like it sez.
"Letter of Resignation" -- as Phil Collins would say, 'no reply at all'.
Vegas!

No, I think she actually was expressing a latent desire to cuddle up
with "your" nuts...she must have heard stories from Shashi.

Snap/Zip,
Was this a Freudian slip????
I think she meant "you're" instead of "your" but I could be dreaming.
Wake me up,

Capriles Captures Worsman Title

Arlington VA (AP) - In a landslide victory, KPMG Public Services
manager Amir "amil" Capriles easily won worsman honors for the week
ending April 5th. It is Mr. Capriles' first win of the year.
Capriles came out of the gate strongly, abandoning Brian "Player of
the Year" Lowe for a scheduled 4/4 tee time. It is believed weather
may have been a factor in this decision.
Compounding this action was Mr. Capriles' assertion that he planned to
attend the Capitol City Bar Crawl with fellow colleagues Daniel
Hernandez, Jeff Kolar, Werner Watschke and Shashi here. Sources close
to the story acknowledge that Mr. Capriles' intent was to balance the
forces of evil (Hernandez/Kolar/Watschke) in their attempts to corrupt
Shashi here with day-long bacchanalian activities.
In exchange for his absence at the festivities, Mr. Capriles proffered
similar activities--though markedly less libidinous--could take place
later that evening during a musical celebration at the Clarendon Grill.
It appeared as if the parties were in agreement for this settlement.
However, in a move that likely sealed the victory, Mr. Capriles'
whereabouts that evening were equally unknown. With present parties
enduring a 40-minute wait outside the venue, battling chilling
elements, Mr. Capriles was nowhere to be found.
"He is the worsman," cited Mr. Hernandez. "Only such a worsman would
tool his friends, no doubt for some beeoeeeyatch."
Others in attendance concurred.
"What's up with this guy," questioned fellow grill-goer Brian
O'Rourke. "Doesn't he realize this could seriously affect his ability
to challenge for Player of the Year honors?"
Despite Mr. O'Rourke's concern, experts claim that few events short of
Armageddon could preclude Brian Lowe from again self-proclaiming
Player of the Year kudos.
