Got this email tonight with several "fwd:" in the subject line. Sick & tired of damn spam from China or some third world country.
Great news to share!!! we have 2month old Demo machine .
Orignally USd 75,000 Offering now USD 55,000
Please let me know if you will be interesting and if i can visit your comapny to give you more infromaiton .
For your refference,
If you already have a Channel Bending machine, then you are probably thinking to buy Trim cap machine.
If you don't have any bending machine, you are looking for a right machine.
Here is the perfect machine for both of you.
MBM120-VB can make various style of letters including trim cap. and we are offering special price for this new machine!!
1. Is Orignally anything like originally? 2. I'm always interesting. 3. I have a company, not a comapny so I don't know what exactly you want to visit. 4. I don't know what refference is, can you reference it in a sentence? 5. Here is the perfect machine for both of you... I have a twin???? Awesome, I always wanted a sibling, being a twin would be extra special. This being alone in the shop all the time can get old. Or maybe the writer is talking about my multiple personalities when referenceing "both of you"
There is so much more, I'm ignoring the use of a instead of the, not capitalizing I, etc because it was just too mentally exhausting trying to read the first time.

I know what you mean....but those spelling mistakes are a sure sign it's spam!
Signmakers, it seems, aren't just "keepers of the craft" we are becoming "keepers of the english language - with slang and what I call 'shortcut-talk' taking over the next text-messaging generation.
Couldn't we all use a twin, from time to time?

Good one Rusty. To tell the truth though, that's upscale spam...I get some stuff in the original language.

A local school board member asked me if I wanted to buy a plotter. Went to look at it, and it was one of those Chinee cheapo's. I asked him if he had the book for it, and he told me I had to go online for all the hookup and operation.
Long story short, the web page was all done in Chinee (maybe), and had English (sort-of) subtitles. Many of the sentences, I couldn't read, even reading the English (use the word loosely). Pretty sad!!!!!!!! I told him I'd pass.
It was probably a piece of S--- anyway. It was very chincily (is that a word?) made.
