Years ago, I used to put a different signature on my work email every day. I drew from a few books of quotations, and I would spice it up with amusing song lyrics now and then. My employer asked me to stop when I included a lyric from the Barenaked Ladies that went, “When she was three, her Barbies always did it on the first date…” Someone found that offensive (which I found even more amusing), so I had to call it quits on the signatures.
Every now and then, I run across a song that makes me wish I was still doing the daily sigs, like today’s upbeat shout of a chorus:
“C’mon baby, let’s separate
C’mon baby, let’s separate
I paid my dues, you’re makin’ plays
I’d do anything to get away…”
Gotta love that. Comes from The Blood Arm‘s song “P.S. I Love You But Don’t Miss You.” (No, that’s not a message to Erika in any way – the song is just hilarious.)
