Updating Every Weekday Unless Something Horrible Happens to Me

Animals probably get bombarded by senseless, random duck calls a lot less than we do.

(update by Simon) Come to think of it, we must know exactly how those animals feel about animal calls every time we open our inboxes. On that note:

Spam From Aliens

We've discussed nonsensical spam before, but here are a couple emails we got recently that we're convinced were sent by aliens who are trying to lure us out of our homes. The first starts out happily enough.

Well that was a tease. A promise of celebration details, only it results in "eat about cloud." Why would I want that? That doesn't sound nearly as fun as most parties I've been to, before finger or after. I haven't tried calling those phone numbers, as I'm afraid they're die-in-seven-days type of things.

Here's spam from an alien who's pretty openly trying to kill me:

	
	Subject:          Windows XP + Office XP = $80. assassinating averring
	From:              "Joseph Keith"

	Page view list, short new. Each sky, boat. Represent, said road.

	No and, pick result, near for fall. Us, long round bit, here.

	After, pull group thing leave. Stood said letter. Distant

	contain I, better, class. Between cow oxygen, egg change spring.

	Type six brought or see. Clear been kept dictionary south

	divide.

I was thinking every sky should have a boat. Represent! And between the cow oxygen and egg change, I wonder how much paint thinner they've been inadvertently drinking before this made sense to the person sending it out. I mean, it's not like they're making it clear what the hell they're advertising. Sure, the subject line says Windows XP, but heaven help you if you want to find out just where to buy these from. Somewhere dictionary south divide is my guess, but that's only if it's starting to kick in, dude.

Try to assassinating me, will they? They're in for a rude pull group surprise.
