Spam Email...

[Tom Schindler]

I have had my email adress for about 9 year now and I get spam all the time. I have been using a program called mailwasher and it does't eliminate spam, but does give me control of it.



Some of those "Adult toys" spam I get are all nothing buy embedded HTML text and stuff, but I do sometimes read the words that are arranged like sentences that make absolutly no sense at all.



Sometimes I read them for laughs. Here is a some quotes from it.

A light bulb near a chain saw, a shabby spider, and a paper napkin are what made America great!

...and here I thought it was the freedoms we enjoy, silly me.

A turn signal over a particle accelerator is load bearing. Indeed, an obsequious satellite negotiates a prenuptial agreement with an oil filter.

...I was not aware an oil filter was that wealthy to need a prenuptial agreement.

Furthermore, an elusive polar bear laughs out loud, and an almost skinny grizzly bear hardly seeks a scooby snack for an insurance agent.

...OK..maybe this one makes sense. Dogs eat Scooby Snacks, and insurance agents are dogs so that might mean something.



I am bored. I am insrtalling new seats in my EGT, but it keeps raining on and off, so I come in the house to dodge raindrops.

Ahh, sort of like the PGT only older. Some of those EGTs were pretty peppy.

It is the last year made...1996. In that year, of all the Escorts made, about 1% were GT's. Mine is pretty peppy, but alot slower then the 1992 I had. That could do 15.9 seconds compared to the high 16's the 1996 does. I can feel the difference that the OBD-II system in the 1996 is inferior to the MEC system in the 1992. The feel of the engine is different too.



Too bad the 1992 rusted out or I would still be driving it.
