Most hilarious spam I have gotten in some time…

Read the email I got. This is too funny!! This is the response I sent her. Read the spam email before reading the response.

Dear Dolores,
First of all, I am really impressed with how smart you are. Not too many people with email ids janeczkadesrosiers@yahoo.com would make it easier for their readers by introducing themselves as Dolores. I come from a country of seemingly unendingly long names. We should have thought about that before.

I am glad that you liked my photos. And as you pointed out, there was a strong and reliable man in those pics. However, unlike your conclusion that he was behind the picture, I am pretty sure that he was in front of me – taking those photos, in fact. Although, I am a little confused how those new fangled selfies and selfie-sticks work these days. Maybe you are right.

You fell off the chair? You should have seen how I rolled off the floor!!

I have to say that I was most relieved when you referred to your errr… errr…. those “amazing” things. After the recent legalization of gay marriages, you can only imagine how worried I would have been if I had gotten this from somebody without those errr… errr… “amazing” things!!

I am also glad for you that your other “errr… errr… thing” is “something”. Personal experience has taught me that something is better than nothing.

Finally, regarding something interesting about myself… honestly, I am not that interesting. My first wife in fact called me “quirky”. I consider myself somewhat of a dumb guy. As an example, I cannot still figure out which one of the five guys in your “To” list were you talking to all this time.

Anyways, have a good day..

******************************************************

BTW, all of you readers, who are worried at my reference of “first wife”, RELAX. I am still married to her. I just don’t have any empirical evidence to conclusively establish that she is the last one. ๐Ÿ™‚

What’s up with Indian moms?

The new surgeon general of US – in fact the youngest one ever – is an Indian American. Looking at the picture of what seems like his swearing in or whatever they go thru to start on their job, I am reminded about a hilarious observation Sharmila had made once – “Indian moms never smile in pictures”. As incredible as it sounds – almost all pictures I have seen after that (especially if they are visiting the U.S.), that has turned out to be true!!! Good to know some of this truisms hold at the highest levels too!!!

That would require a major guess!!

This one comes from Anand Iyer who brought my attention to the remarkable escape of two inmates from a New York top security prison. The funny part was the proverbial Microsoft Support-esque comments from the New York State Police Department leader in charge of the workforce combing thru the area regarding the possible whereabouts of the fugitives – “They could be literally anywhere”.

The name of the leader? You can’t make these things up – his name is Major Guess!!
