Email from a close family friend-Subject Line: "Not a Bernie Note"

Bernie's response:

"Say, Everyone:


Each of you has known Bernie for at least 25 years and three months. (Emma is the lower bound here). All of you are familiar with his (1) not-quite-immediate grasp of things which is (2) amplified by his increasing propensity to hear words incorrectly, for some reason. (Get it? Amplified? Hear?) . The result: (1) and (2) are the perfect storm for this to be a Bernie note. I think I have never said this to you, Rich: your are wrong. This is, indeed, a Bernie note, or at least it has great potential for being a Bernie note. The only difference is that, if this were mine, the printing would be much neater."

HAHAHAHAHA

Reasons to love Bernie #44,444

The first Intro to Stats powerpoint slide thanks to ELM. Here's some advice: show up to class, do the Owl exercises, pay attention, ask for help, and don't make stupid excuses about why you missed an exam. 

Also, ELM IS ENGAGED

ELM has found a free-spirit-lovely Australian mate just like herself. I am hoping for a wedding in AUSTRALIA. Welcome to the family Lyndon! Finger and I may end up in Tazmania, or your mother's farm, JUST BECAUSE IT IS NOW A POSSIBILITY.

Updated Bernie lists

I would just like to point out that this 2010 update is essentially an updated note from 2009. I would like to (1) know what is in my savings account (although I will gladly forfeit all savings and interest to Bernie and Cher for emotional wear and tear, plus continued support; (2) the European credit card rebate is from like 2005; (3) the registration for Nice; hotel; and airlines is from at least two years ago; and (4) the haircut is done by Cher.

I LOVE MY PARENTS.
