Dear autoresponder (Steven K. Horn)

Congratulations on your promotion! WOW! Imagine being in a director-level position ... with jurisdiction over our President's e-mail! He must get a lot. How many people do you have working for you?

Anyway ... thank you also for the e-mail addresses for the Vice President and First Lady (Go Hillary!).

I'm sending a copy of my letter to both of them as well. Is there anyone else you think I should mail my letter to? Just so you know, I'm also posting a copy of this e-mail on my web page. My web page is located at:

http://users.aol.com/jimwriter1/index.htm

Go there and read it if you want. I think it might be a federal offense if you do though, so you should maybe check with your boss first (just knock on the oval office door, I'm sure he won't mind -- this is important stuff!).

Thank you sincerely,

Jim Etchison
(address and phone number followed.)

P.S. And, by the way ... if you go to my web page, make sure you check out my poetry and stuff ... and also make a posting about what you want on your tombstone, okay? I need more of those!! [For the reader: This is not a veiled threat. I used to have a section on my homepage that allowed people to say what they wanted on their tombstone. It failed miserably so it's gone now.]

Here's the letter:

(From here I posted my original letter).

Read my next letter.
Or to return to innocence, close this window or go home!
