my new job..

...involves deciphering what the hell emails like this mean:

Jeff,
can I call bdm252 from old250 ?

I tried to nslookup on old250 but it doesn't work in bash

Evgeny

WTF?

I mean seriously?

I have no idea what I'm doing.

je suis avunculaire

Welcome to the world Eloise! (named after the song by The Damned? I'm not sure.. but doubt it)

Mother & baby doing fine, father going somewhat nuts with the excitement and adventure of the whole thing.

Well done fishbro & fishS-I-L, the hard bit is over now - just 18-20 years of parenting to go..

Much love to all three of you.

PS I found the perfect gift! :)

griffin again

Claire mentioned to me at Xmas that she hadn't seen any pictures of the insane orange beast for a while. Just to show that he's alive and well and still kinda cute. Occasionally. When anyone has a camera out. The rest of the time he's a psychopathic bastard... Don't be fooled.

work emails..

EF: have you heard Cinema Dub Monks?

FB: I think you just made that up

EF: Not true.

FB: you know I haven't got teh interwebs at work so it could still be an elaborate hoax..

EF: Yes, that's right. It could just be an elaborate hoax.

FB: you've got so much time on your hands after all, who knows what you invent to pass the time...

EF: Most of it is indeed not safe for the easily offended...or confused.

FB: I'm confused.. should I be offended?

EF: Only if you find it easier.

happy new year?

Hang on a sec: no-one asked me if I'd finished with the last one.

Bastards.
