Funny, funny, HA, HA

The saga continues, the guy is actually funny...like a clown! Here is his response to my professional email about photographing his scrotum. I'm sure there is no need to reiterate my response, since he so tastefully quoted mine. Enjoy!

Well Reena, I’m sorry. Sometimes I let my humor get the best of me, and this time even I feared I may have gone too far. In my defense, you emailed a real estate broker to advance your career and assumed that you had reached a hotel. What may have seemed like a normal email for a hotel to receive was quite unusual for us as we are only interested in selling condo hotels, not art. I also noticed that you did not provide a phone number. Rather unbusinesslike, don’t you think? Had you, I might have picked up the phone and simply told you that your inquiry was misdirected. You got to admit that it was thoughtful of me to give you any response at all considering the nature of my business and your inquiry, huh? I mean I did tell you that I don’t have the contacts you wanted, so give me credit for that.



I’ve got to tell you that you’ve given me the best laugh of the day, and for that I thank you. I love this opening line. “I am neither interested in your failed comic career or your scrotum.” Classic! Of course, if you got to know me better, you might care to here some of my better jokes. J



Now, allow me to address some of your other comments:



You said, “I wrote a serious email to an organization with a reputation and many possible business endeavors.” What do you know about my reputation? It happens to be one of being a sarcastic, wiseass who gives timely responses. I’d like to believe I lived up to that.



“I was appalled that a grown man would write to a complete strange women like that, unless you are used to talking to women that way.” Again, forgive me, but I did not know you were a strange woman when I wrote to you. I’m only getting a feel for that now.



“As for you stage fright at the urinal, that sounds like a serious personal problem that you should seek help for.” Good advice. My therapist said I should channel my energies into my writing. Maybe I should replace her.



“but if you would like to have your "scrotum" hanging in a a well established museum, I would be glad to photograph that for you...for a nominal fee.” I’d like to know what your rate schedule would be for such a request, and is it based on the scrotum as a hole or per inhabitant? Could you tell me what your competitors charge so I can shop rate and compare artistic presentations.



“You have presented yourself as a perverted old man who can not take business seriously and I hope this is not the way you treat all business endeavors.”
Old? 42 is the new 27, and I won’t reach that level of maturity for at least another 8-10 years, so stop name calling.

His Response

Seriously, I was just having a little bit of fun with you. Wasn’t trying to be disgusting, but I admit I went a little too far. On the other hand, I find it hard to believe that you can offend anyone who surfs the net these days with an indecent reference. It’s not like I attached photos.



I’m sorry, but at least my reputation is still in tact.
