I’ve found it hard to know what to say when signing off in an e-mail, so this article discussing different ways to do it was quite helpful. They discourage the use of “sincerely yours” though, and I disagree with their reasoning. I think it’s a perfectly valid way to end an e-mail. Of course it always depends on the author and the recipient, so it’s nice to have a few to pick from, but I see no reason to discount “sincerely yours” entirely. In any case, I typically use my name or “Cheers” so to add some variety here are a few options:

Later
Bye
Yo
Ciao
Check it
With esteem
Take care

An article about a whale jumping onto a boat ended up talking about how often rare things occur. It’s hard to believe some of the stories in the article really happened.

The best one I know of personally is a family with seven children who had three boys born on the same day two years apart. In other words, they had a boy, then two years later (to the day) had another boy, and two years after that, on the same day, a third baby boy. The father called MIT to get the odds but I don’t remember their response. It was probably something to the affect of, “Will you please buy me a lottery ticket?”
