To get the full effect, this should be read aloud. You will understand what 'tenjewberrymuds' means by the end of the conversation. This has been nominated for the best email of 2005.

This reminds me of a call I made to AOL last month.
Yes, that's a call to our help desk.
Good one! :-D
LOL Ping!
Here's one I just got. LOL
Donald Rumsfeld is giving the president his daily
briefing. He concludes by saying: "Yesterday, 3
Brazilian soldiers were killed in an accident."
"OH DEAR GOD NO!!!" George W. Bush exclaims. "That's
terrible!"
His staff sits stunned at this display of emotion,
nervously watching as the president sits, head in
hands. Finally, the president, devastated, looks up
and asks, "How many is a Brazillion?"
ROFLMAO!! That is funny!
Tenjew!
Very funny!
ROFLMAO!
I don't believe that this was an actual call, but it's still hilarious.
ROFLMAO
Oh, I needed a good laugh today!!!
Thanks!!!
MM
LOL This is not good now when I hear an accent like that I"m going to start laughing!
Probably not - but its all posted all over the internet under tenjewberrymuds. Can't find it in that paper though.
Every time I order food from this local Chinese Rest. As soon as they start repeating my order back to me... I just about pee my pants!! ROFL
MM
I sent it to one person in my office and we sooo want to send it around but we dare not!
I think it would be appreciated by a lot of your co-workers!!
MM
We have a few oriental and Indian co-workers. But I do work for an internet company and they are pretty open here. But you never know with co-workers how they will react so I'll just delete it from my system. LOL but I sent it to my personal friends.
Reminds me of a telephone conversation I had this morning with someone who shall remain nameless...
I don't get it.
You know, room service is expensive. The conversation could end with:
That weel be pipty-pi dollars.
