That's just bizarre and creepy. Whoever thought of that promo should think again. I could see it if the explanation came a day or two later, but more than a week? That's not nice! I would have freaked out the same way you did. In fact, I got freaked out just reading your story.
that is totally freaky.
Except now I want to mail someone a rock. With a date. Maybe I'll send a rock to Nova at work with our anniversary on it, if I can remember the date.
I thought my mom was sending you a message from the dead. That's her birthday! But that'd sure be a creepy thank you note, even from the dead.
Hmmmm.... pig vagina tutorial?? I'm a new reader, so I apologize for not knowing what that means. Any explanation you can give is appreciated...
jesus freakin' christ!! you had me on the edge of my seat reading this damn entry. Glad to hear that you are both alive, and yes the Hard Rock has rocks in their head for mailing such a thing like that!
(and yes I've thought about booking a room their for your gift basket... maybe when the red sox are in town 
)
First off, I LOVE the cop you talked to.
""Men are crazy and stupid," she said flatly. "They do all kinds of dumb stuff they shouldn't do."
I do believe there's a story there.
And pig vagina tutorial? How much do people need to know about those if they aren't a)a pig b)a vet c) breaking a few laws?
For an explanation of the pig vagina tutorial, read the entry from Sunday, March 21st.
Whatever yahoo thought up the idea of the rock needs to receive one in the mail later this year, not polished and in a grimy box.
Just to keep things interesting. 
ok..obviously some major issues for the cop..but a bigger concern is that you jump so quickly to the conclusion he was cheating!!got to admit it is a unique promotion..
rabbitt321 - how did you get the impression that I thought he was cheating? Maybe you should read this paragraph again, in particular the first sentence:
"Not that I thought he was cheating. Even if he had the inclination, there's no way he could work in the time to have an affair, and he even if he had the energy for subterfuge, he couldn't afford hotel room fees and dinners out. Besides, there's no woman in the world that's going to mail him a rock for that sort of thing. A rock? No way. It was nice to have the opportunity to needle him though, and I had the law on my side, too, which was always a plus."
I once mailed someone a box full of pepperoncinis. Not in a jar, either, just loose in the box. Ahhh college! :o
That was a great story! Isn't it great that the world just provides you with all of this blog fodder? Heh. That's a really clever promotion, though. They might have added the words "hard Rock" to at least have you not think it's a death threat, though.
Hahahaha...that was great. Alas, a Blog sent me over here, for which I'll be grateful forever.
Mailing pepperoncinics reminds me of my friend in college who used to write his friends' mailstop addresses on random things and send them through the system. He sent several bananas that way, and once a watermelon, which of course had to be kept at the mail office while they sent a little "you have a package slip" to the hapless recipient.
I heard that the campus mailing regulations were changed the next year to prohibit such tomfoolery. Glad we got in on it while we could.
It's a good thing the hotel wasn't named "The Sweet Heart Inn."
I was accidentally and temporarily given a rock once, by a friend of mine--in person, though, not through the post. His then-S.O. had given it to him with no other instructions than that it was "for Daniel," and so he figured that I would understand what it meant, but I was completely mystified. Eventually, though, he figured out that she had meant for him to place it on the grave of his brother, who happened to have the same name....
Bwahahahahahahahaha!! What great fodder for a book or a short story. I have never laughed so hard and it was extremely creepy. I was starting to worry for you. LOL
One of the funniest posts ever. I want to let you know that I almost never do what I'm about to admit to. Just so you'll know how funny it was. I was LOL while reading the exchanges between you & police and then you & Steve.
Which isn't to say that you haven't written some hilariously good stuff before. This just topped them all. The set-up, the build & the pay-off were perfect.
