APRIL FOOLS!
No, ladies and gentlemen - I am not now the Mr Whipple of Wachovia.
I am not sure if I enjoyed the letters of congratulations or the lengthy multi-paged screeds on the evils of Wachovia and how I am a major sell out.
Or even the little walks down memory lane – from April Fools 5 years ago when I managed to convince many of you that I was now a motivational speaker for Lockheed Martin and would be opening for the Charley Daniels Band at the Paul Wolfowitz theatre in Langley, VA.
This time around, I managed to fool some of the smartest people I know. Zoinks!
I think my favorite might have been my own entertainment lawyer writing me asking, "What do you mean you need an entertainment lawyer?!"
Someone told me they had read it out in the blog-o-sphere first. HA! I have trouble traversing the Chandler-o-sphere – so I will just imagine that part to be true.
OK OK. If any one of you had written me to say you asked a question in Barack Obama's town hall meeting – I would have bought it.
Maybe I would have bought that anyone of you was becoming a spokes person for Wachovia. Where my BULL SH@#%*! Flag would have gone up is the fact that Wachovia Bank would hear our concerns and start investing in neighborhoods.
Now that IS a Whopper ®.
Well, in any event, I felt a second E-Mail is in order. Feel free to reply.
OK OK - I promise not to bug you guys with two E-Mails in a row like this often. I really try to make this strictly a once a month thing. I really do appreciate your kind words and thoughts.
I am going to wait to unsubscribe those of you who did so until after tomorrow – in the hopes that this note will at least change some of your minds.
I won't bore y'all with another newsletter - other than to say
THANKS for all the responses.
I swear the people on this list are the absolute coolest folks on the planet!
And since so many of the coolest folks on the planet have asked -I
will give you a few highlights of what is really going on.
