so after a long hiatus, my brother finally got back online again. thought i'd share an excerpt from an email i just sent him:

"..i'm so glad you're back online, cuz half the time i wanna write someone, you know, really write someone...(not the stupid, dumb headed mass forwarded, cheesy 'scroll down the page and get the answer to a joke that some stranger wrote and isn't even that funny, and don't go feeling special, cuz i sent this to everyone on the face of the earth..friends, acquaintances, even people i don't really know or like for that matter, and open at your own risk cuz this could be a killer virus disguised as a cute little kitty riddle sent by evil al qaeda underground terrorists' kind of email)...you're on my list.

so, anyway..heard any good jokes lately?"
