Anonymous Greeting Cards


Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, I'm here before you today to present the case of "Beautiful Anonymous Greeting Cards."

Let the picture above serve as Exhibit A to said case.

Yes, ladies and gentlemen, on the weeked of January 23, 2011 the Shutterfly package seen here arrived addressed to one April at her local Los Angeles residence. With every thing indicating that this was a soon-to-be-discovered act of kindness the individual procceded to open package with excitement and care. 

In this anonymous package, my client found a pack of 10 greeting cards (pictured above). Greeting cards are of beautiful design, featuring a crisp photo of 3 orchid flora with delicate whimsical lower right corner design, featuring heart-shaped centerpiece. Inside cards reads, and I quote, "Smile! A little note to brighten your day! Love, " with room for personalized message and sender signature. Spotted inside card, another whimsical design with heart.

Ms. April pleads surprised to the 3rd degree by this wonderful discovery delivered via the U.S.P.S. While she does claim a list of usual kindness suspects, she will release a statement to the public in the near future on how her private investigation to thank anonymous sender proceeds. Currently, she has made one public statement as she was recorded earlier saying, "By golly this is one of the kindest acts I've ever seen in my entire life. Wouldn't you agree, Buddy?" (Transcriptors note: Buddy is clients said pet fish.)

Your honor and members of the jury. I defend my client in her claim that this is act, done in anonymous nature, reveals that there are wonderful people around this earth. Police reports indicate that individual responsible for this act designed card, ordered through chosen web-based photo card producing company, then simply addressed to receivers address. Through preliminary investigation all indications point to sender intrinsically motivated by desire to spread good cheer to others. 

As representative of my client, our claim is for the sender to be measured to the highest degree by Earth Code 326549: Desire to Spread Good to Others.

Judge: Thank you, counsel. Jury, I leave this good measure to you and trust that you will accout for all evidence in this trial. Court will adjourn for deliberation and all parties presence requested in courtroom in 16 minutes.

Judge: Jury, have you reached your verdict?

Jury Spokesman: Aye, aye, Captain! Excuse me, I mean yes, your honor the jury has reached their verdict. This jury stands by their decision of Random Act of Kindness implemented to the fullest degree. Jury names the witness, Ms. April, to be the receiver of one very good deed and we honor her claim of priveleged and thankful many times over as a true claim.

- - - - - Judge, jury, witness, counsel, and members of the court observation section go wild. Loud cheers and hugs overwhelm everyone in the courtroom.- - - - -

Judge: (Pounds gavel) Order! Order in the court! I hereby prounounce this case of Beautiful Anonymous Greeting Cards is adjourned. Let the celebration continue!

- - - - - Cheers, hugs continue. "Oh Happy Day" music plays. Confetti drops from ceiling. Dance party ensues - - - - -
