Best Email pwnage

[Jassi]

I was cleaning out my inbox and came accross this email exchange. I knew I kept it for a reason. Anyways, I have some religious friends (not of my faith) who used to send emails out to everyone on their list in the hopes of saving them. I think this is what stopped the practice.

So here is the email that i received as a part of a huge mail list and the response to it by the person's own family member

The email in question:

Two Boxes

God's Boxes (I hope I get this back)
Please Keep it going. This has been going since Dec. 1, 2000
.......please
send it on.

God's Boxes

I have in my hands two boxes
Which God gave me to hold.
He said, "Put all your sorrows in the black box
And all your joys in the gold."

I heeded His words, and in the two boxes
Both my joys and sorrows I stored.
But though the gold became heavier each day
The black was as light as before.

With curiosity, I opened the black,
I wanted to find out why,
And I saw, in the base of the box, a hole
Which my sorrows had fallen out by.

I showed the hole to God, and mused,
"I wonder where my sorrows could be!"
He smiled a gentle smile and said,
"My child, they're all here with me."

I asked God, why He gave me the boxes,
Why the gold and the black with the hole?
"My child, the gold is for you to count your blessings
The black is for you to let go."

We should consider all of our friends a blessing. Send this to a
friend
today just to let them know you are thinking of them and that they are
a joy
in your life.

A ball is a circle, no beginning, no end.
It keeps us together like our Circle of Friends.
But the treasure inside for you to see
Is the treasure of friendship you've granted to me.

Today I pass the friendship ball to you. Pass it on to someone who is a
friend to you...

And the reply sent to the entire mailing list:

My Dear ____,


There's one more "box" I want you to think about and that's my "inbox", it
doesn't have a hole, so please don't send anymore gay things like that.

Thanks.

Got any of yours to share?

Hahahahah. I've got nothing like that but I've responded to my fair share of dumbass Craigslist scammers who all use the EXACT SAME email body.
