2nd today: Confusious without subtlety

After recently ingesting some Chinese take-out, I opened my fortune cookie to read, "You are about to become $8.95 poorer. ($6.95 if you had the buffet.)"

Imagine if Chinese fortune cookies came with every consumer service...
GAS STATION: "You are about to give our CEO a new Lexus."
POST OFFICE: "You'll never get a confirmation of this package being delivered, because it will be stuck under a conveyor belt in our Des Moines facility for the next 2 years."
IRS: "You're screwed."
TOLL ROADS: "Just wait til you see how many potholes are in our road next time."
INSURANCE COMPANY: "Get ready to choose a new family doctor next year, because we have no intention of paying your claim."
CREDIT CARD: "You're such a valued customer, your interest rate just went up to 30.99% APR."
CABLE COMPANY: "Tough luck. There's STILL nothing worth watching."
DOCTOR: "You have the sniffles? Ohh. Looks like we're gonna have to do a rectal exam."

Ooooh, what a feeling!

Hey MI,

Glad to hear you are taking more time for song writing! I wanted to let you know that I've been putting the word out locally to musicians that might want to sell their CD's in the 'Homegrown Music' section my store and the response has been great...

So, it only makes sense to also extend that offer to you!! If you have (or will have) any CD's of your music and are interested in putting them up for sale at Superfly on a consignment basis, let me know!! Would love to give you some exposure.

Take care,
Sublime
