Angry e-mail fun

Just received quite the hostile e-mail from a reader. Responded with this …

Doug:

I know that’s you! Funny!

Jeff

PS: Are you playing hoops on Monday?

We’ll see what happens from here.

On that note, I often need to remind myself that the best way to respond—to all e-mails—is kindly. It’s hard, when someone kills your work, your effort, your motives, etc. But it often results in either rewarding or downright funny outcomes.

Stay tuned …

PS: The above photo was taken via my iPhone. One of the saddest sights ever. Took my kids to see the Yorktown Stage production of Willy Wonka. Went into the bathroom to piss—this is what greeted me in the toilet. Dear God—Nutter Butters?!
