To Whom It May Concern:

I am writing on behalf of a Canadian citizen who is currently working on a project overseas. He is currently unable to receive parcels from non-military sources, but has been persistently asking for copies of the 2004-2005 Toronto Maple Leaf hockey games. It would really make his day (and possibly get some peace and quite for the rest of us) if you could prove us with a quote on the cost of obtaining these so we can acquire them ASAP.

Thanks for your e-mail Jack. Unfortunately, the second coming couldn’t get you what you want. I suggest you tell your “friend” to hope for the best for next year.

Re: Fwd: Re: Attn: Brad Marshell!!! (was: DVD copies of 2004-2005 Toronto Maple Leaf hockey games)

Mr. Marshell,

A contact of mine (Jack) got in touch with you a week ago to request copies of the entire 2004-2005 Toronto Maple Leaf series. He was told that it was impossible to get them. I am bending every rule in the book to PLEAD AND BEG FOR THEM!!! [EDITED FOR SECURITY- US GOV 2345-W23]

Look, it’s bad enough that I have to deal with all that shit. Can’t you at least bend things for a guy who’s trying to save the universe?

Re: You really don’t know? (DVD copies of 2004-2005 Toronto Maple Leaf hockey games)

R.,

We’re not quite sure if you’re for real or not, but I’m a nice guy so I’m going to play along here.

I hate to be the one to break it to you man, but the season has been cancelled due to a players strike. No hockey all year. Like I told your friend, the second coming couldn’t save this season.

Sorry,

Brad Marshell,

Re: You really don’t know.

Look, why don’t you just say that you aren’t willing to get off your asses and send me the tapes? Hell could freeze over and us Canadians would be playing hockey on it.

Wankers.

Re: You made a grown man cry.

Several members of my team have attempted to contact you regarding some 2004-2005 Hockey games. I’d like you guys to know that EVERYONE ELSE on this team has gotten the item they requested. I guess Canada and this stupid whatever your called station can’t get your fingers out of your asses to hit record. He’s a good guy, and he just misses home.
