Dear Ms. Lavandulagirl,
We regret allegianceto inform you that your shipment of minions has been delayed due to a lack of control at Minion Depot . I assure you we are working on this problem as we speak. We appreciate your interest in minions, and we know that you have a choice in minions services and hope this small glitch does not lead you away from Acme. Also, we are developing an exciting new lackey service that you may find interesting in your drive towards world and universe dominance.

Dang, you can't find a good minion when you need one, and I'm on a schedule too. I think I'm going to have change suppliers.

Dear Acme -
I understand you are developing a powdered minion, to which I can simply add bottled water. At what point can this be expected to go to market? I have tried lackeys in the past, but found their allegience to be rather dicey. Presence of a water cooler often changed the power base, and email access created chaos. It seems to me that as long as I don't have concerns about any of my actions being indictable (as I will quickly BE the law), I will not need to use the Lackey program. I did recommend it to my buddy Alberto Gonzales, though, and he is making full use of your product.
Sincerely, Mistress Lavandula

I'll take a minion over a lackey any day. I decided to try out some lackeys once, and was NOT a happy camper. They kept waving a job description in my face and saying they didn't do work, they were just boot lickers and yes lackeys. When I threatened to fire them, they said that there were lots of jobs for lackeys in the Bush administration, Dept. of Justice, the CIA, and the military. Then they took off and left me with no one to worship me. I didn't even get a refund.

I hear Minion-Mart ™ is a good place to shop for cheap minions, though the minions tend to be from China. Peons are not as good as minions but better than lackeys IMHO.
I'm another dial-up slave.

Lackeys think the peons' name is a command... that's what makes the peons difficult to deal with - their perpetually wet trouser legs.
My minions are on backorder. I'm hoping for an August delivery.

Dear Mistress LG, We at ACME recognize the failing of lackeys as suitable for establishing world dominance, but were happy to fill the work order from the US Governement as it was a fabulous test bed for our lackey program. Sadly, we are seriously considering discontinuing the program, as some lackeys have escaped and are reaking havoc in other areas of society.
As for email access and water coolers, I beleive you have too lax in your discipline practices here. Lackeys, peons and even minions work best when generally given only that which they rewuire to function.
As for the powdered minion rumors, i can only confirm that we are working, in R&D on a powder that can be sprinkled onto unsuspecting others and turn them, temporarily, into minions. There has been great interest in this from Mother's Supply Company and Parenting Magazine. We will certainly keep you in mind when this product comes to market.

Dear Acme -
Is it possible to get on a list to beta test the powder? I have a set of homegrown minions who are completely uncontrollable. Obviously, I should leave the creation to the scientists!
Barring participation in your test program, is it possible to have the two sets of minion shackles shipped ahead of the minion order? Currently my homegrown minions are participating in a prison workforce program, but unfortunately that is unavailable as of June 12th.
Thank you. Mistress LG

Finally! I knew you'd love it when you saw it, Johno!
The rest of you all are just going to HAVE to do something to see this video. Sorry... but with the minions on indefinite backorder, you will have to fend for yourselves. I swear, if you pledge your undying allegiance, I'll bump you to the top of my to-do- list once I achieve world domination! ;D
