**Thanks Everybody!** This really means a lot to me…I’m honored that y’all would trust me enough to help me (and my co-conspirators) with this project. Love, Tracy ---

I’ll call you! Hey, if we sell pictures, I’ll be able to make up for going overbudget on this plan! 😉 I’m sorry but no prank is worth the $43.25 I’ve spent on this one. I wonder, could I write it off on my taxes? 😃 ---

Can you take a tax deduction for cyber-torturing someone? I’ve never seen any info on that! But sheer joy will be your reward once it is all over! (Or a quick and painles death!) ---

But maybe some people have been tortured with the suspense? I’m sure everyone is gald to have sent you all these things! All _four billion_ of them without the slightest clue about what you are doing with them! But not that they’re bitter or anything… ---

But don’t you think that they’ll be glad they did it in the end? Or is my idea totally lame? Maybe I should just send everybody back their sigs, info, ect. and give up…yeah, I think I will…they wouldn’t want to see this anyways… ---

But either way I’ve lost my $43.25, and how much is my time really worth? According to my boss, not too much! Nah, I think I’d better quit while I’m ahead…😉 ---

Hoo boy, tatertot. You’ve got a few chat addicts to deal with. Silver\_Fire, queen of chat. Falcon, who’s been to 10 dopefests. And me. I’ve been to 3 (two unofficial) but on my buddy list are no less than 54 dopers. And I’ve talked to others who AREN’T on my buddy list (too lazy to add them to the list I carry on email). And THEN you’ve got chat. And email. All told, I think I’ve talked with, more or less, about 75 of you. Tater, you could probably write off the aspirin you’ll need on your taxes. And if you need help I’m here. I just finished a 5-page paper. I am that bored. ---

My list will be fairly short…oh wait, you said we don’t have to necessarily tell the truth, right? Well, then, I’ve slept with all the female dopers, even to gay ones. Just go ahead and fill in that info for me, would you? Thanks. insane/TS will be on the way momentarily ---

It’s really not been that bad, and you know why? My two key words: Organization and Automation! Plus, I’m planning on hopping to BubbaTot’s office tomorrow and whining until he fixes it for me…I maded a booboo. ☹ Lucky for me, BubbaTot is a database thinger extrodinaire and if he has time, I will have the hoppinest database in the country. If not, I shall have to just make a big 'ol chart using crayons and construction paper. Either way, IT WILL BE DONE. That’s the Victory Corps motto, that is. Or maybe it’s IT SHALL BE DONE. I forget which. And if you haven’t mailed me for a preview, do it!
