    I wish I got good spam like that. Best I have is titled: "Madonna hired buttscratcher", which I apparently sent to myself.

    Dear Sir/Madam Jesus Diaz


    I am from internet too. To me it is to upset me reading you to insult this limited time offer. Many from the internet are accustomed to be writing in this style. It is to be difficult these days and times to be communicating with those around the world. We are now depending on the programs that drive the internet and that are the ones that do the translating.

    There are many of those that could find this exciting offer to be of indisposable use. You are the one who is making light of these dangerous times in which we are living. On the behalf of the peoples of the internets I am to ask you to stop insulting the hard work of those that are to do the translating from the one language to the another language and to act now on this exciting offer.

    It is not of the often that one is to hear about an opportunity to import and to manufacture the bullet-proof car. The bullet-proof vest is not to be the subject of the insults.

    Please to refrain from the insulting of the bullet-proof merchandise. We welcome to hear from you to inquiry of us. Your response will be of appreciation.

    Well, you don't have to worry about that anymore with the all new, Kevlar hair extensions, the latest innovation from Ghetto-Tec! Made from the same cutting edge, space age polymer fibers as Military bulletproof vests and helmets!

    Dispite the fact that some idiot shot at his GF for breaking up with him (way to take it like a man there Juan), I cant stop laughing at the story. Its funny in too many ways.

    And yet, I'm sure she lives a very secular lifestyle or otherwise I don't see how she could've ended up in such an obviously dangerous relationship if she was a spiritual person.

    Religion does not always equal good relationships. There are many people (women) who believe in God and might still be abused.

    @philibuster: I don't think you got the memo, being a Simpsons snob is a waste of effort, the general quality may have diminished somewhat since the early years, but the new eps are still totally worth watching.


    The mark of a real Simpsons fan is their encyclopedic knowledge of quotes and references from the show, not an elitist opinion regarding when the show "started sucking".
