Don’t know why, but this reminds me of Simon in the Land of Chalk Drawings.

Every now and then, I’ll get a broadcast email from one of our customers for no other reason than the fact that I’ve corresponded with them and so am in their address book. Eh, it happens, and usually it’s just PR or marketing info.

Today, one of my customers decided to send out a message to her whole address book about why everyone should vote for McCain - not something I’m going to agree with under the best of circumstances and her logic was… a little off. Ok, no big. Into the bitbucket it goes, and I’m on with my morning.

Only, no - that’s not the end. Someone in her address book takes exception to getting the note, and hauls out the drama lama. She flings the drama lama right back at him, and now I have two strangers slogging it out in my inbox. This is when I stepped and and emailed only the two of them, and politely asked them to refrain from hitting reply all. Hopefully, that will be the end of it.

Though it’ll be interesting the next time she calls up to place an order.
