“Creating a Password” + “Inner Peace”

I am not a huge fan of joke emails, those supposedly humorous anecdotes which are interminably doing the rounds. However, I received a couple just recently which really tickled my fancy, I actually chuckled… which is a pretty rare event indeed for this cranky old geezer.

Both were sent to me by my little brother… well, younger, not so little. The first is called “Creating A Password”. It’s something we can all relate to, I think the humor comes from the fact that it is so close to the truth!

The second, called “Inner Peace”, is  a variation on a common theme:

I’m passing this on because it worked for me today.

A doctor on TV said that in order to attain inner peace in our lives we should always finish things that we start. Since we could all use more calm in our lives, I looked around to find things I’d started but never finished.

I finished a bottle of Merlot, a bottle of Chardonnay, a bodle of Baileys, a butle of wum, the mainder of Valiuminum scriptins, an a box a choclutz. Yu has no idr how fablus I feel rite now.

Sned this to all ur frenz who need inner p*ss. An telum u luvum!
