EMAIL Hell - Beware of EMAILs Called Drinkme

by Ferdinand T Cat

Bruce has many different EMAIL addresses, and for this reason we often receive multiple copies of any particular spam EMAIL. The latest one is called drinkme, and it is apparently being sent to every EMAIL address on the Internet in alphabetical order.

drinkme appears to be a discourse of some sort on religion. I was initially tempted to critique it, but it is extremely difficult to figure out what point the guy is trying to make. There is a statement in there about how cows share 96.5% of their DNA with humans, so eating beef can be considered a form of cannibalism. This is utterly ridiculous, because beef tastes great, while human meat is almost unpalatable unless it's heavily seasoned.

Anyway, you can save yourself the trouble of dealing with this nuttiness by setting your spam filter to block the EMAIL address ee@mhpea.org. Also, if you happen to personally know the guy responsible for this EMAIL, tell him to invest in a spell-checker. I mean, YIPES!

Respectfully submitted,

Ferdinand T. Cat

Hi -- I just got DRINKME and
found it puzzling. Mad
ramblings of a schizophrenic
mind? Or is there some
method in the madness, an
attempt to manipulate search
engines as puzzled recipients
such as myself seek clues in
the seeming gibberish.

I dunno. I'm still trying to figure out why he calls it "drinkme".
