Spam, spam, spam, spam, spam, eggs and spam. And Dusies.

Which is about the ratio of comedic nonsense to quality thinking I get as Comments on this blog. And, if others’ experience is anything to go by, I am actually doing pretty well.

Once, when I was living in NYC, then mayor Ed Koch, who was famous for his outspokenness, pulled new bicycle lanes from the streets. These had been installed at great taxpayer expense just weeks earlier and were, of course, promptly disregarded by all and sundry. When asked why, he famously replied: “When I make a mistake, it’s a real Dusie!”.

The reference is to the Dusenberg company which made its most exotic, most expensive car in 1932 – coinciding with a little something called the Great Depression …. bankruptcy followed.

Anyway, check the last little piece of childishness, a real Dusie, in this priceless collection, added today, which gave me some innocent amusement which I know you will share. The writer? Yes, another honorable member of the spam list or, if you prefer, the Monty Python Collection.

So, after months of experimenting I am so confident of my new spam tools I hereby challenge all spammers to try to break the system and encourage their efforts as, who knows, there may be some more little gems like this latest one to add to the list. And thanks, Ms. Mentally Bankrupt Spammer, for some great editorial material. I’m almost inclined to take your name off the spam list in the hope of some more priceless gems from you – not!
