Eid Stamp Response

Tuesday, Dec. 14, 2004 - 7:52 a.m.

The landlord dropped by yesterday to see about our leaky sink. He took a look at the problem, muttered something about how much it would cost, and disappeared again, but not before he said he would try and get a contractor there this week, and apologizing in advance if there was not a 24 hour notice.

Later in the day when the mail was delivered, the Tenant's Union handbook arrived.

I'm reading off and on about my rights as a tenant in San Francisco, and I'm divided between rolling my eyes and cackling with glee.

I think the next time the landlord is here, I'll let him see me reading the handbook.

The email below is making the rounds yet again:

Dear Fellow Patriotic Americans:

FORWARD THIS IF YOU DON'T FORWARD ANYTHING ELSE .....
...and, if we get any mail with this stamp on it, we will put "return to sender" and will not accept it!

REMEMBER the MUSLIM bombing of PanAm Flight 103!
REMEMBER the MUSLIM bombing of the World Trade Center in 1993!
REMEMBER the MUSLIM bombing of the Marine Barracks in Lebanon!
REMEMBER the MUSLIM bombing of the military Barracks in Saudi Arabia!
REMEMBER the MUSLIM bombing of the American Embassies in Africa!
REMEMBER the MUSLIM bombing of the USS COLE!
REMEMBER the MUSLIM attack on the World Trade Center on 9/11/01!

REMEMBER all the AMERICAN lives that were lost in those vicious MUSLIM attacks.
Now the United States Postal Service REMEMBERS and HONORS the EID MUSLIM holiday season with a commemorative first class holiday postage stamp.
I strongly urge you to REMEMBER to adamantly and vocally BOYCOTT this stamp when purchasing your holiday stamps at the post office. To use this stamp would be a slap in the face to all those AMERICANS who died at the hands of those whom this stamp honors. I also strongly urge you to pass this along to every Patriotic AMERICAN you know, whether by email or otherwise.

I've decided it's time for a response to this email. Try this on for size:

Dear Fellow Patriotic Americans:

FORWARD THIS IF YOU DON'T FORWARD ANYTHING ELSE .....
...and, if we get any mail with these stamps on it, we will put "return to sender" and will not accept them!

REMEMBER the CHRISTIAN crusades against the Muslims hundreds of years ago!
REMEMBER the CHRISTIAN persecution of Galileo!
REMEMBER the CHRISTIAN authorities who burned witches!
REMEMBER the CHRISTIAN religion of Adolf Hitler (Catholic)!
REMEMBER the CHRISTIAN terrorist, Timothy McVeigh!
REMEMBER the CHRISTIAN suppression of ideas and enlightenment during the Dark Ages!
REMEMBER the CHRISTIAN extermination of the Native American cultures!

REMEMBER all the HUMAN lives that were lost in those vicious CHRISTIAN attacks.
Now the United States Postal Service REMEMBERS and HONORS the CHRISTIAN holiday of CHRISTMAS with commemorative stamps!!!
I strongly urge you to REMEMBER to adamantly and vocally BOYCOTT this stamp when purchasing your holiday stamps at the post office. To use these stamps would be a slap in the face to all those people worldwide throughout history who died at the hands of Christians. I also strongly urge you to pass this along to every Patriotic AMERICAN you know, whether by email or otherwise.

I hope the point has been made. :-)
