Blunt Honesty about Email

I got this from my brother-in-law's brother:

To all my friends who in 2007 sent me best 'wishes',
chain letters, 'angel' letters or other promises of
good luck if I forwarded something,

NONE OF THAT SHIT WORKED!

For 2008, could you please just send money, vodka,
chocolate, movie tickets or gasoline vouchers
instead? Thank you for your cooperation.
