Welcome back. Photoshop sharks and pens together more often.

If what doesn't really happen?
i hardly think the pen would be good for the shark.
the email has already been sent, if that's what you're referring to.
there are some things i left out, like the fact this email i sent was forwarded to many people in my company with the following text:

Okay,
Someone in my office kidnapped my pen and I'm not happy about it. I'm asking for complete cooperation in bringing my pen back to my desk safely. As far as the ransom note goes, I don't negotiate with terrorists. If anyone hears anything mentioned, ple
ase contact the police, FBI, or call my extension as soon as possible.

amusing.

I mis-read. I thought you only planned on sending the note. Now I see the line where you said you really sent it. This is good, because I didn't want to come to work all red-eyed and sniffly.

Also, for some reason, I couldn't stop laughing at that shark image last night. I went into fits.

no, i misspoke. the sentence you refer to contains the qualifier 'how much fun i could have,' which does not imply that the email had actually been sent.

i'm glad someone else sees the humour in sharks.
also, here is a follow-up email, sent 15 minutes after i left work yesterday by my friend steve. the email is entitled NON COMPLIANCE:

WE NOW KNOW THAT YOU HAVE DECIDED TO SCOFF AT OUR DEMANDS. CLEARLY THE KNOWLEDGE THAT YOUR PEN IS IN MORTAL PERIL IS INSUFFICIENT TO MOTIVATE YOU TO TAKE THE PROPER ACTION. FOR YOUR INSOLENCE YOU MUST SUFFER A PENALTY. THE PRICE FOR YOUR PENS SAFE RETURN NOW STANDS AT 1 AMERICAN DOLLAR AND ONE UTAH STATE COMMEMORATIVE QUARTER. ANY FURTHER DEFIANCE OF OUR DEMANDS WILL RESULT IN SUBSEQUENT PENALTIES TO BE EXACTED UPON YOUR PEN. CONTINUED NON-COMPLIANCE WILL CONSTITUTE THE ULTIMATE MISTAKE!! ANY ATTEMPT TO LOCATE YOUR PEN IS FUTILE AS OUR KNIGHT MOVES ARE INDECIPHERABLE. THINK CAREFULLY AND CHOOSE WISELY FOR THE SAKE OF YOUR PEN, YOURSELF, AND INDEED YOUR COUNTRY!!
