Spam. Dontcha love it? For some reason, I've been getting daily imprecations to buy septic tank and diesel valve components, which must mean my account has ended up on some really weird lists. Like everyone, I've got quite good at running my eye down the inbox and throwing away most of the stuff before having to open anything, but about once every century there's something that just says "Open me!"

Like today. I have no idea who sent this, what they want or why, but I hail them as exponents of desktop surrealism, and thank them for bringing a touch of unexpected weirdness into an otherwise dull morning.

Hello,

I am offering $50,000 2003 US dollars for the below equipment:

1. The mind warper generation 4 Dimensional Warp Generator # 52 4350a series wrist watch with z60 or better memory adapter. Or if in stock the AMD Dimensional Warp Generator module containing the GRC79 induction motor, two I80200 warp stabilizers, 256GB of SRAM, and two Analog Devices isolinear modules, This unit also has a menu driven GUI accessible on the front panel XID display. Or perhaps you have some reliable all in 1 units available?

2. The special 23200 or Acme 5X24 series time transducing capacitor with built in temporal displacement. I need this with complete jumper/auxiliary system

3. An age stopping finger ring if available.

VERY IMPORTANT: All equipment must be original in sealed closed casing of it's time. No old imitation electronic parts or materials are accepted. Please send photos of the above items so I can verify you have them available.

I will offer you $50,000 2003 US funds total for everything with the ring if you can teleport to me in the Boston area within the next 48 earth hours to conduct business in person.

Business in person is greatly preferred! If business cannot be conducted in person, I will send you a deposit only after proof you have them available, and then the remaining funds upon delivery of the time pieces.

Please send a (SEPARATE) email to me at: Jbrown0112@aol.com

Thanks
