I just received this e-mail from my brother-in-law's Blackberry:



By the time I reached him on his cell, The Boss and Bossess had left the joint. I told him, "Bruce has been known to speak to fans on people's cells! You didn't even try for an autograph for me or snap a pic?!".

He says, "I don't like approaching people - although they looked really friendly - and your sister was too shy." This is my same sister who approached Chrissie Hynde (the most unapproachable person in the world) for an autograph for me before I'd met her.

I can't believe it!

I will do everything in my power to get you an autograph if you send me pix of you in the nude.


orgnote me.

I don't even care about an autograph! I just wanted to let him know how much I appreciate the two albums that everyone else seems to disparage (they are profound and the people who don't get them are fools). I also really like his wife's work.

What does "snf" mean?

Is this some crazy title bestowed on the Boss that we don't know about?

It's fast Blackberry typing for "and".

In this context, "erognixed" also means "recognized" and "have" means "gave".

Ace said:

How can it be faster...it's got the same amount of letters.

Ace said:

I wondered about those too. I thought it was some kind of Canadian hipster slang.

applekisses said:

Yes, but when you're typing quickly on your Blackberry, sometimes you make mistakes.

Ace said:

My brother-in-law is an incredibly intelligent guy and a genius businessman, but proof-reading his Blackberry texts to me is not his forte.

Ace said:

Oh, I thought you meant it was some sort of Blackberry short cut thingy...you know, like "brb" means "be right back"

Ace said:

Liar

And my sister used to be a Bruce fan (until the mid-'80s when she made a bad turn and ended up in BarbraStreisandLand).

This would make me mental. Not only did they not approach Mr. and Mrs. The Boss...the typos!!! Thank you for the translation.

awww.. you poor thing *





























*Who are Bruce and Patti?

It gets worse. From a Springsteen fan board:

Ace said:

Damn! Was Brad Pitt there too?

LleeLlee said:

If he were, I would have stepped over that doofus heel in a heartbeat to get to Bruce (Jerry, too, if need be ).

And my brother-in-law would've had an in because his sister-in-law was a producer on Seinfeld.

Ace said:

me to,, I dont even like him I would have stepped over him to get to erm...who else was there?

LleeLlee said:

With my luck, PJ Harvey, Elyse Sewell, Winona Ryder and Natalie Portman.

so did chrissy hynde give her the autograph?

i wonder what made your sister so shy this time around. sorry you missed out.

JasmineFire said:

Yeah, she did actually. She wrote it on a slick paper bag and it eventually completely faded away. Ironically, I met Chrissie years later via a friend.


Thanks. I didn't get all the details. Don't worry: I'll grill her when she gets back.

Ace said:

This is just not on, I think you should write a letter of complaint to Barneys!

I forgot to mention that my sister gabbed it up with Trudie Styler when her and my mother met Sting (an F.O.B.*, incidentally) when they were dining in the same restaurant a few months back.

*F.O.B.= Friend o'Bruce

I just might do that! I mean, the nerve!

You need to start eating at fancy establishments.
