Sunday Edition - August 18, 2025

Good morning Member

Happy Sunday, GrayViners! I am back in your inbox and hopefully not taking up the entire page this time. About last Monday… Yes, I saw it, too. My name got so big it practically shouted at you from every corner of the newsletter. I promise, I wasn’t trying to make it all about me! But seriously, I’m very sorry for the error.

It got me thinking, though—mistakes can be pretty funny once the moment passes. So today I ask: What’s the funniest error or mix-up you’ve ever made? Maybe it was sending a text to the wrong person, baking a cake without sugar, or showing up a day early to a party. Share your story in the forum and let’s have a chuckle together.

Alright, coffee’s hot, Sunday’s looking fine, and I’ve got a fresh batch of stories ready for you. Let’s dive in.
