Funny.

Alright, this is funny. This is a mail that I'd sent to Divey in reply to some random email that she'd sent about two years ago. She'd sent all our email ids to a mailing group. Although my mail was completely uncalled for, well, it is one of the most eloquent pieces I've ever written! I'm pretty sure I was reading Thomas Pynchon at that time. It should've been"The Crying of Lot 49 ", because I started "Gravity's rainbow" much later. The Acronym(which I'm inordinately proud of)is quintessentially Pynchonian a la W.A.S.T.E.(We Await Silent Tristero's Empire) and N.E.V.E.R.(National Endowment for Video Education and Rehabilitation). Also, notice the disclaimer on my subject line. Yup, I'm that scared of that lady! Of course, I made a few grammatical corrections in this version. I have included Divey's reply as well.

Divey,



I henceforth name you the Baroness of Indiscriminating-networks. Swear upon all that you hold dear, that you will remain committed to ‘who cares I need only the Contacts’ Code of honor and that you will endeavor to unflinchingly build the highest number of useless contacts with the most irrelevant of people thereby fulfilling the quest of the underground movement that you belong to –‘GOOSES’ (Group of Omniscient and Omnipotent and Securely Enmeshed Superhumans). Baroness Divey the world is now yours to serve…. :D…



Ps:and you’ve opened us up to a lot of uninvited, idiotic forwards that are definitely going to be in bad taste
