To All: I broke out my Tucows software that enables me to read anyones E-mail (you can download it free at Tucows). I thought I would see what I could find out by raiding a few accounts. Since everyone is so twitchy about this I am going to disguise the company CEO whose E-mail account I raided and the identity of everyone involved. Dear Mr.----- It is really good to talk with someone who really understands business. When I first contacted you about having our press releases put out over the internet by you I was concerned. Some of the companies we had contacted were truly difficult to deal with. They came up with all sorts of problems saying our business model could not possibly support the 5 billion dollar growth we were saying we expected and that we should show we could sell anything at all before we made such claims. It was a breath of fresh air to contact you. Your saying you didn't care squat about what we said was music to my ears. I loved your comment you learned all you needed to know about business from the movie 'Deliverence'. That still cracks me up. I shared that with all the boys (I guess they are my company officers now, but I still think of them as the boys). You are the best in my book though. So I will give you a tip, keep an eye on the companies we contact you about setting up press releases on. We are getting better and better at them. The last one tripled, we don't care if you want to scrape a little cream off the top if you know what I mean. I am sorry you had that trouble with the phony release those pimple faced punks pulled off on you. I guess they did make you look like the butt end of a donkey. I think you got the right idea though, check with your lawyer to see if it can be done. I used to have some contacts who could really deal with this right but we are legit now so I am sorry I can't help you like I once could. ------CEO -------- Enterprises Dear Mr------ I received your letter regarding those "*** * pimply faced punks." I think your plan of action is not realistic. To begin with they are not young teenagers as you seem to think. Therefore they do not have a parent in the house to "take their * * computers away from them" and giving them "a couple of boxes of condoms and tell them to forget the computers and readjust their attitude toward life" is not realistic to begin with. Since you decline my advice as your attorney to simply forget the incident where they used your service as part of a hoax, I do have some ideas we can pursue. I am afraid however that your idea of "Repealing that stinking free speech amendment" is not realistic even if you are willing to "kick a few bucks in that direction." If your clients had to answer for claims they make you would I think suffer catastropic losses. So repeal would be counterproductive for you. However we do have legal recourse though not a prayer of winning. If you really do want to "* *** **** donkey deep in those *** ** punks" and you don't care "what kind of a * ****** * * jackass I have to be to *** do it. Then we can sue them simply to force them to suffer legal costs. Let me know your decision. Sincerly -------- Attorney at Law

To All: Another 'private' E-mail courtesy my Tucows software. I have again omitted all of the names involved, except of course Tastes Like Chicken since he has posted on the Flame thread before so deserves a reaming. Dear Mr. -------- I am sorry you didn't understand the E-mail I sent you regarding the ID names used on the net. I will try to be a bit simpler in my explanation. My apologies for "making you feel like an ignorant dork" and let me assure you I in no way wanted to give you the impression that you needed a "***** dictionary just to read a *** E-mail from me." The name Tastes Like Chicken is a fake name of the sort many internet users assume. It does not indicate he is dressing 'like some kink in a chicken suit' or uses this as a disguise in public. Likewise I think you can forget some of the other meanings you came up with for him using this name and simply assume it is an alias. It is likely he does not 'have a short cousin' for you to 'sue the fillings out of'. This would be simply another fake name he uses. While you had trouble figuring out "just what the *** he was posting" it would seem to be satirical in nature. The form he used does not indicate "his cousin is damned near illiterate" but is an aspect of the satire. I do agree though that these "* * ****** * *** internet posters are *** popping up everywhere." I am attempting to follow your directions to deal with them but I cannot assure you that another "***** mule faced * breathed ****" won't come out of the wood work in another location. Sincerly ---------- Attorney at Law
