e-mails

I thought we could have a thread where we talk about emails from the past. Recently I have been research the etymology of the 'No Pants' craze of '05. Here are some tidbits I have found:
Could the mysterious origin of this phrase have something to do with these cartoons:9/1/05 Schlop: Lord of the Pants
Optimism - the glass is half full
Pessimism - the glass is half empty
Schloptimism - the glass is half fuzzy and has NO pants
9/2/05 Schlop & Nibs
Schlop out - s now pants.
9/7/05 Schlop is O.D.O.R.O.U.S.
Lee: Schlop, no pants
Dave: Inappropriate!
9/9/05 Filter test
Does your email filter remove emails with the following phrase:
x-rated
Schlop no-pants McGee
?

Schlop stayed up half the night trying to figure out what the Eagles/Falcons game had to do with American Tale. Then he got distracted thinking about CHEESE and no cats and no pants... and well, he fell asleep.
9/28/05 HORDE HAS LANDED ON SCHLOP
Schloptober coming soon.
No pants.
9/2805 A quick message from Shnoodles
Shnoodles just wanted me to pass this along:
Whenever he refers to himself with the 'no pants' addendum, he will also add the clever phrase: In The Shnood.
For example:
Talk to yous later!
Sincerely,
Shnoodles - no pants (in the shnood)
9/28/05 A Schlop for every season
Do you think Schlop can come over today to watch Lost with me and the bears?
There is one ice cream sandwhich left and he can have it.
Maybe he could bring Nibs frozen tail also.
Shnoods out - no pants (In The Shnood!)
9/29/05 A Sea Monster Ate schlop's Ice Cream sandwhich!!!
Dear Schlop - Lost was ok - didn't really move the plot forward very much. Snowy was good though!
I've read on Neil's blog about people who want him to draw on them and then they go to get the drawing turned into a tattoo. Which is kind of strange since he was just a comic writer and not the artist.. Me and the bears are looking forward to hearing all that he talked about.
Ok, have fun at wicked. Are you taking Schlop along. Don't squeeze him to hard or he will lose his outer-most layer of blubber.
Shnoods out - in the shnood with no pants.
10/5/05 Re: DJ finished his frosty pancakes
Ok, DJ just solved the 12 step one - but it was lame - it just said congratulations but nothing happened. I thought it would be like the other one where all the things worked together to do stuff - but that guy that came from the ladder just stood there, and the egg monster just stood there, and that was it. Did DJ do it right?
Lost today was really good! There was polar bears!
When is thanksgiving? Is that when wicked is showing? Can we get backstage tours and everything? Will Schlop come? Will he be wearing pants? Where's Petri? Have you read Duddles' favorite book? Who's Anthony? Can Duddles come to the play? Will you make DJ turkey pancakes?
Ok... shnoodles out.
10/8/05 Re: MR. SCHLOOP - COMMANDER BUNNY WANTS YOU FOR THE RODENT REVOLUTION!!!
No no no - it was Duddles with the pajama pants - DJ has no pants what-so-ever!
10/10/05 Oh Noes, Schlop ate Nips!
DJ pants out.
12/16/05 Hullo
Schlop is wearing flannel pajama pants. He wishes. Maybe you could
get him that for the Hannukah.
