Bit and Bitter

[Bit and Bitter are Ryan "the good, the bit, and the ugly" Hamilton and Ryan "festering canker of bitterness" Honaker]


You know that we never usually forward these things, but this one was too good to pass up! It's probably not true, but what if it is? Just read through this whole thing before you delete it. Please don't be mad at us for sending you this. We need the money they promised. Our recent investment in the Diana Ross and the Supreme's reunion concert went sour and Amway just hasn't been panning out like we had hoped. (By the way, if any of you need some of our great high-quality products, don't hesitate to ask us about the new Amway summer catalog.)
