To whom it may concern
My friend sent your mail on to me and I was immediately intrigued by your words, I mean – not since the seminal “Top Gun”, have I heard anyone use the word “mach”…
And sometimes, when I was about 10 years old, I used to avidly watch Airwolf and wondered what it meant when I sometimes heard Stringfellow Hawk say to Santini; “ Dom! We’ve got a Mig on our tail! I need to get us to Mach 1!!”
I even used to get scolded by my school teacher when I drew Airwolf pictures and wrote speech bubbles where String would be yelling “Get to Mock One!!” (since that was how I thought it was spelt). She used to say; “ Allen, you may not mock anybody, it is not a nice thing to do…”
Anyway…to follow your advice, I purchased a sling-shot while waiting in traffic at an intersection this morning and when I got to work, instead of writing the usual mails to colleagues, I wrote down all my emails on individual pieces of paper and crumpled these into the smallest balls I could.
I then snuck into the sales office and loaded each “mail” into my newly acquired sling shot and fired my communiqués off to the intended recipients, everyone looked up at me very startled by the volley of paper projectiles skewering the air towards them, especially Stephen whom I hit between the eyes (his eyes are very close together, so theoretically, I hit in both…)
Well, at the end of it all, I suppose they DID get the message…but Stephen has taken the day off to go and see a doctor, I felt bad so I just sent him a regular e-mail to his Blackberry…
Maybe you should just put a disclaimer in your marketing ploy here, people can get injured all too easily I’ve noticed…
Regards
Allen
