Ok well , my bad if I didn't understand it as a joke. You guys must be
telepathic or something. I dont see how an email containing 49 exclamation
points in 14 sentences can be interpreted as a joke. I might have understood
if there was SOME sort of hint that it was a joke. I.E. smiley face or
something. I have NO idea how everyone seemed to understand it as a joke...
