(This was written at a time when email was still relatively new.)
1. What the heck is email?
2. Well I guess I’m going to have to get onto this email stuff.
3. Wow! Email is fantastic. How did I ever live without it?
4. Yes, dear, I’m still up. I just have to send a few more emails. I know it’s 2 a.m. I’ll come to bed in a little while.
5. Hey Charlie. Guess how many emails I had waiting for me when I fired up my computer today. Go ahead, guess. Come on, guess! Okay, okay, I’ll tell you. I had 22 messages in my inbox this morning. Twenty-two. I couldn’t believe it.
6. Hey Charlie, listen to this joke I got in an email last night. It’s a dandy.
7. Hi everyone. Ran across this great story the other day about a little girl and her bunny rabbit. It brought a tear to my eye. Thought I’d share it in an email with you all. Hope you like it. I have another one I’ll send tomorrow.
8. Sorry dear, I can’t cut the lawn this morning. I’ve got too many emails to reply to.
9. Darn, I haven’t answered those emails I got last weekend. I’d better get at it.
10. I wish people would stop sending me so much darned junk by emails. How do they find the time to send all that?
11. Dear Friends: Sorry I haven’t been replying to your emails lately, but I’ve been very, very busy.
12. Why the heck did I ever get email?
