the gmail chronicles


Rocky The Gangster (c) Warner Bros

"give me an invite and no one gets hurt." that was my friend john turned Gmail-mobster. the triumphs and pitfalls of the Gmail-haves and have nots... harvard professor n. gregory mankiw got it right: the cost of something is what you give up to get it. here are some of the things people are offering in exchange for a Gmail invite -- h****** account, password included; pms-free marriage; the great wall of china; the chance of a british title; a hug from holland; a picture from brazil; a kiss from romania; a postcard from japan; and the pink flamingo outside someone's window. in my case, the cost of getting Gmail in a 100-megabyte webmail-society is the sacrificed opportunity to have continued getting spam.
10 invites for the taking -- just click on the bible verses:

But the plans of the LORD stand firm forever, the purposes of his heart through all generations. --
Psalm 33:11

The eternal God is your refuge, and underneath are the everlasting arms. --
Deuteronomy 33:27

The earth is full of goodness from the Lord. --
Psalm 33:5

Your Father knows what things you need before you ask Him. --
Matthew 6:8

I will never fail or forsake you. -- Hebrews 13:5

Fear not... I will strengthen you... I will help you. -- Isaiah 41:10

You O Lord keep my lamp burning; my God turns my darkness into light. -- Psalm 18:28

I can do all things through Him who strengthens me. -- Philippians 4:13

Jesus looked at them and said, 'With man this is impossible, but with God, all things are possible.' --
Matthew 19:26

Come to me all of you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. -- Matthew 11:28
