Yep. Not like as in "I'm a clown, I amuse you" but generally I'm funnyish

I haven't blogged b/c my system got destroyed. But I have like 20 in my head. So I'm trying to bang them all out.

As part of the system crash, when we reconfigured my computer, it pulled a years woth of emails off the verizon server and dumped them into my inbox. I'm in process of deleting.

But I saw this one in there, and, finding myself uber clever, decided to save it here...

Subject: One of those silly chain mails...A little procrastination for you
