Oh, I get mail
At my job, I manage four e-mail accounts. One of them seems to be a magnet for junk mail of all kinds. There's your "Nigeria charity" letter and its mutations, invitations to join Web sites staring naked women who really, really like farm animals, adverts claiming to...er...enlarge me or my money back, ways to market my porn...er, products over the Web (hmm..I wonder if spammers read someone else's spam) and other inbox cloggers of that ilk.
Just when I think I've seen it all, something pops in to my virtual in tray which makes my cynical Internet heart just go a-flutter in amazement. I got this today and, well, see for yourself.
Hello,
If you are a Time Traveler I am going to need the following:
1. A modified mind warping Dimensional Warp Generator # 52 4350a series wrist watch with memory adapter.
2. Reliable carbon based, or silicon based time transducing capacitor.
I need a reliable source!! Please only reply if you are reliable. Send a (SEPARATE) email to me at: (address omitted by me)@email.com.
Wow, I'd hate Christmas shopping for this guy. At least he isn't picky. You can get him a carbon-based or silicon-based capacitor (I'm thinking Radio Shack has the silicon variety in stock). But then again, it sounds like the guy is in a hurry. Trans-temporal beggars can't be choosers, I guess.
Okay, If you happen to be a time traveler, drop me a line and I'll forward you this guy's e-mail to you.
And if you can let me know who wins the NBA Finals next year, I'd be ever so grateful.
