thanks to you, it's working!
Valued Readers:
Well, I've threatened and beaten you up enough for one month, I guess.
As a consolation, I took great pains today to cook you up a tasty batch
of SPAM! You know, it just beats the hell out of me why spam filters
filter on the word "spam" -- as if spammers are going to announce
themselves that way. Other spammers, that is. And while I'm on the
subject, I am getting real fucking tired of corporate "decency" bots
returning EGR undelivered. Look, if you work for a corporation that
can't handle perfectly good words like fuck, shit, piss and goddam, then
fuck, get off the goddam list! Of course, the poor bastards working for
these cocksucking Family-Values-type outfits will never get this
message. They don't even know they're subscribed to EGR anymore, as they
haven't actually received a send in years. One of these days I'm going
to have to write something so tame that it actually makes it through to
everyone. Maybe I'll include a stealth message for the management
fuckheads who decided to treat Their People like six year olds. Hmmm,
maybe something like this:

And before I give you the spam, let me just say this about that. If 13
of you buy one of these books -- which is about average for you lot -- I
figure I'll be making about 29 cents an hour for the time it took me to
do the markup. Plus, if I figure in how long it took me to pick out this
weird shit, my take drops below a penny a day. So no fucking whining out
there, OK? This is nearly everything I've bought from Amazon in the last
three or four years. Don't ask me why, I have no idea. And no, there are
no "reviews" or "annotations" or other suchlike crap. But there *are*
little pictures you can look at.

I was inspired to blow off any serious work today and take on this
monstrously difficult HTML job as a result of looking at my Amazon
Affiliate revenues for the last six weeks. I took in barely more than
100 bucks, which isn't even enough to cover chuck steaks for the crocs
in the moat. What kind of operation do you people think I'm running
here? Maybe you think I'm doing this for my HEALTH or something. What
health? I'm going blind from writing and coding and hoarse from all the
yelling you hosers make me do. I'm down to my last sioux and Custer's at
the door. I've got the palsy, the bloody flux of Lombardy and I'm hard
of hearing. Eh? What's that? You didn't really *want* any spam? Oh, fuck
you! Where did I put that URL again? Here!

And after everything I've done for you. Why, I oughta...
Stop.
The Management
