That was just for effect!

Knowing the final word, and enjoying to see how everything leads up to that final word.
Bjørneboe never completed his autobiography. After his death, when the manuscript was found, they also found the last word, Butterfly. Everything he wrote for his autobography should lead up to this word, butterfly. That can set you thinking. The final spoiler - 'butterfly'.
A great story: literary legend ? Source ?

Well, he can't have been a very good writer -- that's a highly discouraging name for a sled.

It's the thing that happened in times past before everyone worked from home.
Now, it is difficult to tell work from leisure since they both occur at the same place.

There is something strange about the link? It seems to point back to the same message.

Hi all,
After getting Office 365 Business Premium I have now access to Exchange Online, which allows me to use disclaimers to add signatures to all my outgoing mails (from the android cell phone, laptop...).
This is wonderful as I have the same signature for the mailbox (being able to use Active directory fields to build a nice signature for everybody in the company effortlessly), but it has a drawback.
Before I added easily a signature under each message (outlook signatures), but now the disclaimers appear under all the mails, which ends up being a list of mails and at the end a list of stacked disclaimers.
I've seen there's codetwo and exclaimer which are tools that supposedly allow you to add the signatures under each mail, which would be the desired behavior...
Is there any option to get a signature under all mails avoiding getting the stacked disclaimers without a 3rd party software?
Thank you very much!

This is what I had before... it works well, very well, but you can't have it in your android cell phone as, I don't know why, they are not capable to add HTML in mail signatures in that OS...
I wanted to go with disclaimers (which seem the used method around) to avoid this.
Thank you though.

One of the joys of being a contractor is that I rarely have to bother with signatures (esp. the thirty-line long company ones). I just type my name at the bottom (which I can often manage to do without typos).

That's all you need, especially if you know the person and work with them regularly. The only time I use a signature is if someone does not know me. It's completely obnoxious and also a pain to receive chain emails with a signature on every dang one of them, having to navigate to between the email heading and signature to read the "Thanks!" embedded in it.
