The Men's Scrapbooking Club

We received a letter from you in which you requested an email address for “Tim Rogers 473 W 9th”. Unfortunately this email address is already taken, however, the following options are available:

-Tim Rodgers 473 W 8th

-Jim Rogers 437 W 9th

-Tom Roger 347 W 9th

Would any of these email addresses be acceptable?

Also, to address your reservations about “email”. We do not issue tracking numbers to emails from GMail so you will be unable to determine their progress in this manner. There are no hidden surcharges for sending emails on a Sunday, but there may be in the future as that is a great idea.

Hope to hear from you soon regarding your choice of email address.

Thanks,

Katie Malkin

But I’m confused. Without an email address, why did you send it to teneightfour@gmail.com and how did you know that I would get that email even though I don’t have an email address? Since your previous email was in no way computer generated, I have a hunch that answering this email should be a cinch.

I’m enjoying our correspondence, let’s talk more often.

Sincerely,

Google

We only hire the best searchers at Google. Our employees are pros at easter egg, scavenger, and photohunts. I used my pro search skills to find a fascinating article about underground statues you wrote on examiner.com. At the end of the article you invited your readers to send you an email at teneightfour@hotmail.com and give suggestions for events and art articles.

I actually emailed your teneightfour@hotmail.com email address but it appears that you have two email addresses, teneightfour@hotmail.com and teneightfour@gmail.com! You should tell your tech savvy bridge club friends, they would be so impressed!!

Have a wonderful week!

Oddly, A couple months later I get a packet in the mail from Google. It includes a response letter, a folder, decals, and an American Apparel tuxedo T-shirt.

 

And Then There was the Email I sent to Microsoft:

QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS

Message: I am a playwright and have so many files that I wrote on an old computer in Microsoft Works. Now I have a computer that runs Windows 7 that only came with a limited trial version of Microsoft Word, so I run openoffice, which doesn’t read .wps files. I opened and added to a file in Office Starter and did not realize it only opens in read-only (what?) and lost about two hours of work. I have spent more time than i care to admit dealing with the problem that is the .wps file format, and struggle with it to this day.
