Kind regards,

I hope this doesn’t mean that I have to start paying better wages or providing benefits, since I can’t afford to pay more than the $0/hr rate that my team currently earns. On the other hand, maybe this means I’ll have a better showing in the inter-blog softball league this year. It’s been hard to field a competitive team without any other team members.
By the end of this year, I will not be surprised if internet e-mail suffers a major meltdown, or if a new set of protocols finally emerges to require some sort of authentication of identity in e-mail.
