I receive a ton of e-mail spam, I hope it enrages you just as much; the world is sometimes too happy a place. One of the worst examples is the shameless solicitation of my Alma Matter the New Mexico Military Institute. Granted being on the mailing list is entirely my choice, but how else would I get the notifications of the Annual Valentines Sweetheart Dinner or the Spring Support the Cadets function to share and laugh over with my fellows from RAT year?
After recently joining New Mexico Muskie Inc. I got a piece of mail that just happened to come in right on top of something from the Institute, instead of clicking something interesting I was instead rewarded with a rather somber 'Abq Chapter Member Facing Medical Issues', that was just depressing.
Recovering from that mishap, and being the responsible person I am, there was no choice but to immediately blame NMMI for changing their acronym to so closely resemble NMMI's. As an aside I'm also rather surprised that NMMI hasn't yet discovered the acronymic synonym faux pas and become indignantly litigious with NMMI about it. Overall I can call it a win as my RAT and PT gear now has new use, and I am proud to be a member of both NMMI and NMMI.
