Dear Emplyee (sic)

Got this in my email yesterday:

Yesterday was a sad day: Ed Mirvish is dead.

So it goes

Kurt Vonnegut, Jr., died yesterday at the age of 84. His novels were screamingly funny, sad, gloomy and thoughtful all at once. I’ve been a fan of his writing for longer than I’ve been an adult (thanks to a good English teacher I had in high school, who assigned Mother Night to our class). I’m finding that I miss him.

My favourite quotation of his is this: “Pretend to be good always, and even God will be fooled.”

You might also want to check out the drawing on his official website.

So it goes.

On a much more mundane topic: here’s some spam I got in my email today:
