Why Email is Like a Penis

Reasons Why E-Mail is like a Penis ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Some folks have it, some don't.

Those who have it would be devastated if it were ever cut off.

Those who have it think that those who don't are somehow inferior.

Those who don't have it may agree that it's neat, but think that it's not worth the fuss that those who have it make about it.

Many of those who don't have it would like to try it. (e-mail envy)

It can be up or down. It's more fun when it's up, but it makes it hard to get any real work done.

In the long distant past, its only purpose was to transmit information vital to the species.

Some people still think that's the only thing it should be used for, but most folks today use it just for fun most of the time.

If you don't apply the appropriate measures, it can spread viruses.

If you use it too much, you'll find it becomes more and more difficult to think coherently.

We tend to attach an importance to it that is far greater than its actual size and influence warrants.

If you're not careful what you do with it, it can get you into a lot of trouble!

If you stay on it too long your hands cramp up.

Wife gives you funny look when asked to kiss it.

If caught using someone else's; you better have a good reason.

Hard to sleep at night if it hasn't been checked in a while.

Sometimes you dream your using it, then wake up and realize you did.

The stuff you get from it is sometimes hard to swallow.

Here I am, half asleep this morning with a cup of coffee in my hand trying to wake up, and the title to this post hits me so hard I almost lost my coffee cup!! But I'm most definitely awake now! Really, really funny, Sherri :-)!!! I just sent it to some of my best girlfriends! Thanks for the wake up call. Hopefully I can go out to the barn now and milk without my "hands cramping up" on me!!

VERY FUNNY. And so true, in many cases.

Gonna miss this stuff; I will be out for two weeks pretty soon. My wife is due for child birth any minute now (every phone call makes my heart skip a beat), so I will be out of the office.

Great sendoff for me, I am printing this for my wife, who's interest in penis right now is akin to Lorena Bobbit. PROTECT YOURSELF AT ALL TIMES! :^o
