No.  This is.  If this moron offends you, send this to his mail box.

and the spam can comes full circle, but without my initials on it :).
I'm pretty sure I had an "(FL)" on it the first time I posted it, so
it's not my fault.  maybe I should have hidden it in the shading...

I've still got a first edition Felix Lee 'Spam' complete with its
original jacket.  It must be worth quite a bit, now...

That's odd, mine doesn't have the ()'s in it. I also added a bit of text on the
side, which makes it quite useful to email back to spammers (note the C&S 
reference sneaked in there :> ):

At first, I thought "Why is that FL there? It looks kinda dumb..." and was
about to replace it w/ =='s, when I realized- "Oh, that must be the signature!"
BTW- does anyone know how to spell [oh-vi-zheez]? It's on the MP sketch, but on
the Final Ripoff version, not the original (i.e. it's not the same in the book,
either...) -it says that after "shallots" at the end... <shrug>
L8er...

that might have been from a later reposting.  I've been changing the
way I sign my stuff.

hmm.  maybe I should find something that doesn't look dumb.  ("fL"
looks even dumber.)  or else move it to a better place..

Oh, you mean "overshoes".  You need to steep yourself in Boston-talk before 
you do this, tho.
