Generic greeting, I am undecided on whether the feedback from the first edition was positive or negative, so I will try again in order to gauge a more defined reaction from my viewing public. Don't get me wrong, I am not encouraging you to respond, but any response is encouraged.
First order of business, I am not ecstatically happy this week, which is a deviation from the norm. My co worker has fucked me in the ass yet again (figuratively, not literally, sorry to disappoint). She tells me when I get to work on Sunday that she is going away for the week, leaving me to fill her shifts. Although this may not sound like much, it is rather inconvenient as I had already made plans for my days off, and now will not be able to visit the "Early American Erotica" display at the museum or see "Highliner Fish Presents: The Drag Queen Revue". I have had tickets for it since June, and am not happy. The only good thing to come of this is that I can sell the tickets for three times what they are worth , to the raging homo who lives down the street from me.
Second order of business, I have decided to take up Origami, the ancient Japanese art of paper folding. The instructional video I got is not much help, it is in Japanese, but dubbed with english, and the actions of the demonstrator do not match what he is saying. Needless to say, my first few attempts have been less than successful, with the end result each time resembling a horrible car wreck. Hopefully I will improve with more practice.
Now I will move on to notable happenings of the past week. Another blood-filled incident at work. HURRAY! This was actually inside the store, and involved the cover of a florescent light crashing to the ground, brutally slashing someone's arm on the way down. Luckily, it was my arm, so no harm, no foul, whatever that means.
The second notable happening actually warrants a HURRAY for Jodi! I was visiting my favorite slot machine at the Sheraton Casino on Saturday and it was so happy to see me, it let loose with bar, bar, double diamond, depositing $50 directly in my pocket. While this is by no means a fortune, it will come in handy when my next heinous phone bill rolls in.
Mr Show shirts have been made! Although right now they are only taunting us with them, displaying them, but not yet selling them. Also, they only made 2 shirts, not 2 different styles, but only 2 shirts in total. I have already purchased both of them, so sadly, there are no shirts left for anyone else. I may decide to auction off the shirt I don't like as much. If so, I will let all you shirtless morons bid on the one I may sell.
Finally, my childhood comes to culmination. The Scooby-Doo live action feature film had been given the go-ahead. Mike Myers is going to be writing the script, and possible stars include Kevin Bacon, Gillian Anderson and Sting. But maybe I made up the Sting part. The best buzz I have heard so far about this movie is that it will have an NC-17 rating, as it will delve into the sexual aspects of Fred and Daphne's relationship. The only thing better would be to let Scooby in on some of the action.
I am implementing a new, semi-interactive feature this week. Attached to the letter will be a picture I have found amusing for some reason, and you will write a caption for it, and send it to me and I will pick some winners and maybe give them a prize, or just some praise, whatever. Also, I will pick the worst one and ruthlessly mock it. I apologize for the picture being so large, but my shrinkage skills are lacking at best. If for some reason, the file doesn't send right, let me know, and I will resend you the picture. You don't want to miss out on this exciting new game I invented.
Now, here is the place where I would write more stuff, but I am tired. So I will proceed with the Shout-outs. If you are unhappy with your shout out, I do not wish to hear about it. I am only one person, and cannot make everyone happy all of the time, so suck it up and get on with your life.

And this concludes the second edition of HURRAY for Jodi. As always, you can remove yourself from my list by replying with BOO in the subject line, but if you do this, be sure that you do not remove your preferences first, because then I will not be able to tell who the mail is from. I had one such instance last week, and was frantic with worry about someone getting an unwanted copy of HFJ this week. HA! You know who you are….
