This means war.



One of the few things I did accomplish when I was on vacation was (sort-of) cleaning my home office. It it was only when I got to the "shred" pile that I realized the sheer volume of junk mail that I get. The picture, although not my own, is a pretty good representation of the amount of credit card and other solicitations that I had received during my two week hiatus from work. Then it dawned upon me: I am ALREADY on the "Do Not Call, Do Not Mail, Do Not Look At, and pretty much every other "Do Not" list that's out there.

So now, just to make myself feel better, I mail back the empty envelopes. If I'm really motivated (a rarity); I enclose a genuine handful of Sluggo-brand shredded paper. Because, as we all know, me mailing back these envelopes, will SURELY bankrupt these massive credit card companies, who then will leave me alone.

Somehow, I doubt it will work. But it does keep me amused.

Dude, that's a good one! I'm going to try that myself! :)

If only there were a way to express my disdain in that matter through E-mail...
