Carla refused to acknowledge this, but I think it's worthy of
consideration. You can even post it on the home page.

Dear sweet Carla, Harvard wh--e,
"Oh, sadness...sadness..." you whine. Without you distant, Carla,
my life is a black cloud of fear and depression. Connie connie connie
connie is better. I miss the scent of your lovely rhubarb perfume, my
dear vegetatious-headed one. Rhubarb's smarter. Roger Da Silva is a sex
god that rocks my world because he's stupid. Ohh....and so are
you...mmm...yeah.
With deep regret and sorrow,
James Chen and Kevin Murphy
I win.
Oh, and get my name of the list as "loser," and send your real
address so it isn't a pain to reply.

I hate to be the curmudgeonish one, but as I get 60-100 email messages
each day I really don't need another mailing list dropping me ten
messages between when I start a problem set and finish it.
Anybody who removes me from their cc: field gets my transitory
gratitude. If enough people do this, my name will attain extinction --
nirvana, non-being.
You will note that I am only sending this message to people who have
sent mail to this list recently; I am trying conscienciously not to
clutter anybody's mailboxes with mail they haven't asked for. Take this
as an example.

[reply: Don't worry Grant. I'll take you off of the lists and deny you
access to the homepage and the chatrooms, along with all of the other
wonderful services I'm providing for us. Thanks for the appreciation

my dearest nappi,
my sadness expands to infinity at the thought of your sorrow.
"oh piteous spectacle, oh woeful day." --(Shakespeare)
mon petit chou [my little cabbage], you are what makes my coleslaw good
and
the rabbits envious.
i am trying not to take it personally that you consider my account space
conservation attempts...."snotty." (sniffle, sniffle) but we are all
entitled to our own opinions and maybe i'll get enough negative points
that when I reach negative infinity i'll cross the line to postive infinity
and win.
anyway, i may never recover from your attempts to flame me with
potatoes. but PLEASE LEAVE KEVIN OUT OF IT. (hey, it was my message in
the
first place and i think i solely deserve any ramifications thereof).
i'll just have to quit my occupation as a student and make billions selling
french fries to some transnational fastfood corporation.
well, i'll go wallow in my sorrow and expos paper....
see you tator,

feel
tingly all over....do it again, james, do it again...

carla
p.s.- your message has moved me to the point where i have foregone the use
of capitalization.......find a way to supply me with some sort of
chocolate,
and maybe i'll reconsider....
