My philosophy about putting your angry rantings into writing is
a.) It's GOING to get you into trouble with someone.
b.) It MAY get you into a lot of trouble with someone.
c.) If you can write it all out once, erase it, wait a week (although allegedly this guy waited a year before he spewed), and then still want to write all the angry shit you wrote in the heat of anger, then maybe there's something to it.
Chances are, though, that your second draft will look drastically subdued and more well thought out than the original, if you even find it worth writing to begin with. From personally writing stuff like this author wrote and then regretting it, I see this as very possibly a major blunder.
Also, I stopped reading about here:

Cool story, bro. Shouldn't it be "or whenever"? Not nitpicking an artist or anything, just saying.Your company is stuck in the year 1850 or whatever, when ships came from England with books to sell to the New World.
