About Chad
FOUND by Briana Newton in Venice Beach, Los Angeles, California
When I was hanging out at this beer garden right on the beach, I looked down and noticed this on the floor by my foot. While the 3 people I was with continued their conversation, I read this to myself, amazed. Finally I had to interrupt them to show them my find. I think it was the "wife is Scottish" that really won me over.
Feeling in coherent
She may be Scottish, but can she make a haggis?

Almost sounds like a "should I date him" list of "pros" until you get to the wife, which Scottish or not, would usually constitute a "con" (and being Scottish, she may weild a nasty claymore!) I mean, "loves cold beer" and "just had a vasectomy" might be pros for some girls.

Mind you, some of my female friends prefer married men! They actually prefer the fact that there won't be any permanent ties involved.

@Feeling...haggis are caught (when in season), not made.

I think this is a character sketch for an aspiring book-writer. That's the only way this makes sense to me!

So you're saying haggis are a disease?

umm...Chad is living a double life. His Scottish wife does not know he is having an affair with Josh, who wrote this note.

Well, I think it is always good to let Chad know what is going on...don't want to leave him hanging.

(couldn't resist that one)

All's well in the end
Nah. Relax. He had a 'vascectomy'. It's not the same.

This list is in the wrong order -

Should be

Wife is Scotish
Father of Four
Just got a Vasectomy
Works hard for the money
Active Social Life
Loves a Cold Beer

but quite possibly could be

Works hard for the money
Active Social Life
Loves Cold Beer
Wife is Scottish
Family of Four
Just got a Vasectomy

Not dat in g Chad
It almost sounds like a business networking card (Important Things to Remember about Important Clients), but why the vasectomy would be necessary on that list, I don't know.

Hmmm....I theorize that Chad's out of work, embittered, and trying to psych himself up for the long week ahead of job hunting--you know, reminding himself of his good qualities so he can get pumped and find that job!

yeh my first thought reading this was that Chad is the writer. Don't know why but the wringing style and the tone just seems male to me and like VermiciousK said it's like he's reminding himself of who he is!

I have an answer! Chad is my best friend. I was with his sister-in-law when she met a guy who sings a little telegram to anyone you want if you give him some facts about their lives. This was on the Venice Boardwalk at a bar called On The Waterfront that has an open air beer garden. How's about THAT!

Jose! You ruined it! I wanted to see how long people would wonder about this. Oh well...the cat is out of the bag. Yes, I am Chad's sister-in-law and yes, along with my fiance and 2 other friends we had Bill the Singing Telegram make up a song about Chad and call him to sing it to him for $5 a song. These were the important points we wanted him to include in his song. We had Bill call Chad just as we knew he would be picking up the kids from camp hence the note on the back. (Bill did a great job) I wouldn't be surprised if you find more pieces of paper like that at the Waterfront. Bill spent the whole day there drinking beer with the locals, making up songs... and just like Chad.. working hard for his money!
