    Gee, it's more exciting than the "Vigara" spam, too. Lucky you!

    Well, I'm disappointed their mph/kph conversion is off by nearly 28 kph. That a low grade of spam right there. I would like a higher grade of spam, please.

    I've seen a few of these recently. They're pretty entertaining compared to the typical spam comment.

    I wonder if that text is generated automatically. Back when it was still a hobby rag, BYTE Magazine published a program that made stuff like that. It would analyze a piece of text to figure out the probabilities of every n-character combination (where you tell it what value to use for n; 4 was good) and then generate another piece of text using the same probabilities. It made some surprisingly readable gibberish. (n = 4 made text that looked a lot like Jabberwocky. n = 7 made text that looked like this spam.)

    Not spam, but I got a very nice email from the folks at Chase today informing me that my Chase account had been shut down because of numerous failed password attempts, and they even provided a nice linkydink for me to click to reactivate my account.

    All of which would have been at least remotely interesting to me if I actually had a "Chase" account.

    Try again, silly Bulgarukrainistanians!
