Dear readers: Some of my best or worst material (depending on your taste in humor) originates unexpectedly from e-mail banter at work. It usually happens on Fridays and long afternoons when, I guess, my coworkers and I unwind a bit. For a few years, I have saved a lot of it, in case I could use it later. Most of the e-mails during the day only go so far as a few little give-and-take exchanges, but some evolve into really absurd essays. The following e-mail exchanges are such examples.
