I gave up a week ago. I've got 300 signatures to sign off and 100 are "delinquent". It's go time when I get my "you're fired" letter. Till then it's Oprah and The View baby.
That sounded gay.
I've taken to screening out anything that is labeled "Broadcast mail"
I figure it it's important enough, I'll hear about it.
May the force be with you.
