Odd Spam

In the mail this morning was a request for the following (paraphrased:)

  1. A Warp Generator wrist watch with attachments like induction motors and warp stabilizers

  2. A "time transducing capacitor with built in temporal displacement"

  3. "A reliable crystal Ionizor with unlimited memory backup"


There are very specific part numbers and such.

I suppose that if your time machine has busted stranded you in 2003, you might consider spam as the best way to get those hard-to-find components that haven't been invented yet, or at least revealed to the public. Though if I had them, I'd consider holding out for rescue (or stock tips) rather than the 5 grand the spam offers.

Very weird. On the subject of odd spam, I saw the following subject line in my mail today: "Achieve your companion in another terrain!" I assume it's the work of a Babelfish run amok.

OK, I'm stuck. Can we get an enumeration for that one?

No enumeration, but here's another from this morning:
