As you’ve probably come to realise, spam is something of a pet hate of mine. Well, it’s a pet hate in the same way that I imagine being struck by lightning could be considered quite annoying. It isn’t without it moments though. Recently I have been receiving the same email, eight times a day, in Russian. Needless to say, I have been diligently ignoring them all. Until I noticed one from a Mr. Puncture D. Jealous…
Well, fight fire with fire I say…
Dear Puncture,

Eggleg, Shicago (the windy city)

Hi David,
This sounds like a problem…
I use a Mac which can be a problem sometimes in terms of testing things out. So far, on the Mac it all looks fine on Firefox or Safari, and running Virtual PC it seems to be okay on PC Internet Explorer 6.
It looks bad (as above) on a Mac with Explorer, which is no longer supported on Mac anyway, so who cares… but problems on PC Firefox isn’t so cool.
Hmm… I’m going to have to investigate this one. Thanks for the tip off David. Browser compatibility can be such a pain in the arse sometimes. 
And, yes, I did select the words. Although it’s a long list and I’m still working on them!

Hey Gregor, is it meant to look like this on Firefox - with the sidebar at the top and the posts underneath?
PS Did you select the words to submit below? They always seem strangely appropriate.
