We invite you to examine an e-mail invitation we received today:
Check out the recepient line: yep, it's addressed to jewsthatareseniors@pobox.upenn.edu. Well, no use beating around the bush, huh? He says it's not real, but it makes us wonder what other overly honest listservs lurk on Penn's servers. Gingersbutweprefertobecalledredheads@pobox.upenn.edu? Halfasians@pobox.upenn.edu? Legaciesthatpeakedinhighschool@pobox.upenn.edu? The possibilities are endless. But keep in mind the possibility of overlap -- for example, Murrayhillleases09@pobox.upenn.edu would most certainly be redundant due to the existence of the aforementioned jewsthatareseniors list.
