    *mic feedback*

    Struggling Comic- Hey is this thing on?

    Crowd- Your thread sucks!

    Struggling Comic (sweating)- Um Um...mailbox... no...OK, so a waitress at Hooter's brings me my order and says, " Um..See how fast I brought your chicken?", I go, " Yeah but um how fast can you choke one?"

    Crowd- Your thread still sucks, even though it took you another 10 minutes to type this skit!

    *mic feedback*

    Struggling Comic- So I um...flew in here today and boy...um...um....good night!

    did you post this to get material for a new bit?

    could be worse... you could be Henni Fa-Fa, Iraqi Comedian...

    "Hello, I just flew in from a suicide bombing in Isreal and boy are my arms gone!

    I was asked the other day if I knew Bin Laden, I told them I knew he's Bin Hiding...

    I am the only comedian in Iraq... the others are in Guantanamo and Abu Grhaib!

    Take my wives, please!

    My cousin told me he helped build pyramids, I said, I didn't know you had been to Egypt, he said, I didn't go to Egypt, I was in Abu Grhaib prison!"

    Alright, I'll bite. I hate it when I come up with something clever and it gets ignored, also.

    I've got three mailboxes.

    1) Work
    2)Yahoo
    3)Ragingbull; though I think this sites Email finally crapped out.

    I check spam once every couple of days.

    I had no idea I could resort my files. I'm a computer idiot.
    (I'm always reminded of that skit from "Working" where one co-worker has changed another coworker's voice-mail to say "You've reached John Smith..... Moron." When a baffled collegue asks "Why don't you change your voicemail back?" The coworker yell's "I DON'T KNOW HOW!!" :D

    No return receipts for me. I wouldn't know how to do that.

    Haven't opened a penis modification email yet. No need to.;)

    I enjoy getting email from people that actually WRITE me. Typically once every other week. My friends and I rarely correspond this way.

    I send most emails to HotRussianBrides.com. No responses yet.:(

    1 mailbox, thru my company. It scares my IT guy that I wouldn't have a private one too.

    Don't have a spam folder. We got a spam filter recently though I never had a problem with spam before. Now, it eats all my emails from friends and family.

    I switch my filtering as needed, though it is usually by date. That's easiest.

    Return receipt is the exception.

    I don't get penis modification emails for whatever reason. Probably anything with that in the subject gets eliminated by the spam filter (which might explain why friends' emails get lost).

    I suppose my wife is the answer to the question of who I like to receive from most and who I write to most.

    How many do you have?

    Overall, probably 50 different aliases that come to me (most client related), but only really 3 actual boxes.

    How often do you check your spam folder?

    Never. It goes right to the trash without even notifying me.

    Why is your mailbox organized by date when there are so many other options available (type, address, subject)?

    I use Entourage and, at the moment, it doesn't have any way to group emails in threads like a BBS. I wish it did, but it doesn't. Date makes it easier for me to track through customer emails. But, I do sort all my emails into individual folders for clients or specific personal stuff. My inbox rarely has more than a few emails in it at a time.

    Is "return receipt" the rule or the exception?

    Definitely the exception. I know only a couple people who actually use it.

    Do you open mail that mentions penis modification anywhere in the subject?

    Only long enough for my hand to reach the delete button. :)

    Who do you enjoy getting e-mail from the most ?

    My wife, potential customers, and a couple friends.

    Who do you send the most e-mail to?

    My wife and Clutch (since we work together).

    I have at least 6 mailboxes still functioning.... Hotmail has probably cut off the other 3 or 4 I had for spam crap.

    I only check my spam folder once or twice a year.

    I organize my emails by date, cuz otherwise I'd be too lazy to sort through ALL the freaking email UT sends (and has sent) me to find the newest ones

    Return receipt??? Does anyone actually use that?

    Considering I don't have a penis, no, I don't open those emails... Or the ones with VIAGRA in the title either.

    People actually send other people email? Holy cow. I gotta find a person like that. All of my email is school related.

    I email my mom the most. It's the only way I get to talk to her sometimes.

    I have three email boxes - sbcglobal, gmail, and hotmail.

    I check my spam folder every day on my sbcglobal account, because I fear it's eating my families email.

    I sort it by date, so I don't have to scroll through the entire box to see what my new mail is - if I could set it up so it would jump into my main box, then automatically get filed off after 24-36 hours into sub-categories by who sent them - I'd probably do that.

    I don't believe I've gotten the "return receipt" more than once.

    I don't get penis enlargement or p*rn ads. I get offers to get prescription drugs for cheap, and offers to lower my mortgage rates - Sometimes I wonder if the spammers know I'm a man. I mean, I wouldn't order it, or go to the p*rn sites but just a little reinforcement that - yeah, we know you have a penis - here's something to make it huge and nekkid women to stare at.

    I enjoy getting mail most from my mother, sister and girlfriend.

    I send the most mail to the aforementioned three.

    How many do you have?

    4 - 1 Home (RR), 1 Work, 2 Personal (Lycos & Yahoo)

    How often do you check your spam folder?

    I sent them to trash without looking.

    Why is your mailbox organized by date when there are so many other options available (type, address, subject)?

    Mine are arranged by date, it's just more convient that way. Very seldom would I ever have the need to look back at an email (except at work of course).

    Is "return receipt" the rule or the exception?

    The Rule at work, always need to know if the receipient even bother to read my email. A co-worker at one time actually claim that I never sent him the info. for a meeting, I calmly forward the "read receipt" to my manager.

    The Exception for all others.

    Do you open mail that mentions penis modification anywhere in the subject?

    The very first time to see if it was a joke a friend played on me.


    Who do you enjoy getting e-mail from the most ?

    Used to be those subscribed joke letters, but don't have time to read them anymore.

    Who do you send the most e-mail to?

    Other than co-workers, my brother.
