} Dear John:
}
} Thank you for the opportunity of an interview with your company.
} I've enclosed a resume to give you some idea of my background and work
} experience.
} Since I already know you wish to arrange an interview, I will
} stop by your office today, at 1:00 PM. You already have a have a dental
} appointment scheduled at that time, but I would not be concerned.
} Your dentist will be involved in a two car collision at 12:10 PM,
} after spilling a cup of Dunkin' Donuts coffee in his lap while rushing
} back to his office. He will suffer only minor injuries to his lower
} back and right shoulder. His nurse will cancel your appointment at
} 12:50 PM.
} I look forward to meeting with you, and discussing the work
} of your company in greater detail. Better answer the phone now; it's
} an urgent call from your wife.
} Sincerely,
} O.

} my neice, lying on my fleece, fleecing the unfleecable, creasing the
} uncreasable, greasing the skids, thrilling the kids, policeing the
} police, balancing the books, looking the looks, walking the walk,
} talking the talk, shuckin' the jive, stayin' alive, wondering the

}
} I also do windows.
}
} _Oracle at Delphi_; beginning of time to beginning of Usenet

}
} Dear John:
}
} I am including this follow-up letter now, since I already
} know that you've decided to hire me. I am flattered that you consider
} me partnership material, although I am a bit dissappointed that you
} will try to start me in a sales position to see if I can work well
} with people - and to save money. Most of your employees think *you*
} are the one who has an ego problem, with the exception of that cute
} secretary you've been boffing on the week-ends.
} Unfortunately, I must decline your generous offer. Although
} you think the angry call you just received from your wife is another
} one of her meaningless threats, you are wrong. She fully intends to
} seek a divorce. In fact, she hired a private investigator to catch
} you and the secretary "flagrante delicto". She has many compromising
} photographs. In color.
} Due to this sad turn of events, your company will close its
} doors in 3 months. After the divorce proceedings, you will find
} yourself penniless and without a job. Do not be concerned. You will
} be subsequently hired by Borland Inc. as a new account salesman.
} You will travel the Pacific Rim market extensively.
} Better answer the phone now; it's an urgent call from your lawyer.
}
} Sincerely,
} O.
