Seriously. The most universal word/salutation/whatever ever. Even better than "Seacrest OUT!"

But yeah. As in:

Mike,

Didn't get that spreadsheet yet. Please resend, Bob is looking for a reason to fire you already.

Cheers,

Flambeur

And no, I'm not British, but they are geniuses for inventing it.

I started doing this, because in the sciences, it seems like everyone uses it as an email sign-off, and I'm not even corresponding with British scientists. I think it works since it doesn't feel overly familiar or formal.

I've started doing it since living in the UK for a few years.

I still occasionally feel a little odd about it.

With the economy the way it is and imbeciles from Americas past like former president Carter reemerging into the limelight, I am reviving another formerly lime lit imbeciles sign off line.

Courage.

I love using "cheers" when the body of the email is quite aggressive. It always gives me a good laugh.
