Random
I get our company's info mailbox e-mail. So anything that comes from our website to info@url.com comes to me. I just thought I'd share the most random one ever.
Welcome to a new concept in manhole covers
Seriously? Its still round. Big deal, it has a hinge and a lock to make sure it doesn't go anywhere. But when was the last time you saw kids out in the street lifting manhole covers anyway?
If you're going to make a huge new announcement, make it worthwile. I know round objects are the only ones that cannot fall in on themselves, but give me something more creative. And did I mention that my company has nothing to do with manholes?

Dear Jay--
Stealing manhole covers and selling them for scrap is a major industry in the third world, especially South America.
It turns tragic when small children fall into open manholes and die. Apparently, it happens all the time.
Around here, we have thieves cutting down phone lines to sell the copper. Lame!

I would have never known. Thank you Mikey for enlightening me.
I still find it odd that I received the message, but at least it does make more sense now.
