This "spam" thing is getting out of control. Pop-ups too. For example, yesterday I was dutifully emptying my mostly-useless Hotmail inbox when I saw an email with a normal name and the subject line of "hi". So being the smart guy I am, I opened it and I found the most absurd line ever in a spam email. Here it is, exactly as it appeared:

CONGRATULATION

You have won FREE Dinner for two, from a lucky draw we conducted sometime back.


guh? Quite possibly the worst spam email ever. Though it did make me laugh quite a bit. Thusly, I am saving it, and have already made it my screenname in the Windows Messenger. "...tell us where to send your dinnercard." How about I tell you to eat my ass?

Hi, I'm Ehren. Welcome to my website.

I am a straight-shooter with a heart of gold and balls of steel. I coach a hard-luck peewee hockey team full of working-class misfits. My sweat is considered currency in developing nations. I once appeared nude on a Wheaties box. I operate a greasy-spoon diner on the outskirts of humanity. Also, I'm afraid of clowns and small children.

    It hasn't been tested for compatibility with Kate Beckinsale, but I have a hunch the two would hit it off.
