When Death comes Emailing…

I realize that just about everyone is wired nowadays. I’m facebook friends with people in their 70’s and family members I thought I would never see online are now stalking me too, but I never ever in a million years thought that Death would be online. I mean, you just assume some things will never go cyber. Until, you get an email from…

death

Death! Death sent me an email. I didn’t even know Death had my email address. When I saw it in my Inbox, I didn’t know what to do. Should I ignore it and send it to the trash without reading it? But you can’t ignore Death, right? Sooner or later you will have to face Death.

It makes no sense. I feel great, nothing is wrong. Why, Death?! Why did you email me?

I decided the best thing to do is face my fear, read what Death had to say. You can imagine the relief I felt when I saw the subject of Death’s email.death spam

Turns out Death is moonlighting as a spammer trying to sell me Viagra and other drugs! Times are tough, lifespans are increasing, and Death has felt the recession as much as anyone else.

I marked the email as spam and now I can’t be blamed for not getting Death’s future emails.

    Hysterical!!!  And, I guess, it made you open it– But Death must be desperate if he’s hocking Viagra–  Then again, I guess Walmart would never hire him as a “Greeter” so times are clearly tough 😉

    that stuff will kill you
    Interesting approach – are they giving up on using sex to get attention?
    Not that I miss it (actually got to hate it) but I don’t recall seeing the bathtubs-in-the-outdoors ad anymore.  Oh that was so dumb – and why two bathtubs instead of one?
    Death is a big downer so you are smart to delete it from your inbox.

    So Death sells Viagra on the side. You’d think business would be booming on the death side with all the wars and overpopulation stamping out lives by the thousands. Guess Death is just the ambitious sort.

    I guess Soma ( a muscle relaxer) and Viagra ( a muscle xxx) could put someone into an early grave or at least a Soma Coma Bo*ner.

    Maybe death is trying to tell you something… like those mobsters who sell insurance… “here, buy this and I’ll make sure nobody bothers you…”
