bizarre PM

Just had a rather bizarre private message from a "new user" called Jessie extolling the virtues of budhism.. and giving a web address?! Anyone else get it?

Re: bizarre PM

Yep,

I got one as well. I meant to tell him he was in the wrong church and pew, but I let it go. I am sure he is an interesting fellow, but he didn't seem to know squat about GT40s.

What happens when a Buddhist becomes totally absorbed with the computer he is working with?

He enters Nerdvana.

Very funny, Neal!

And when he turns on his computer monitor, he becomes enlightened!

This spam has hit several forums and only seems to go to members with low post counts. I guess he is trying to get to you before you become jaded by forum opinion.

And when I saw the title of this post I thought it was a joke about Gordon Brown

Re: bizarre PM

Ian,

Is that why you opened the thread, to read political humor? That is funny!

Maybe he'll come back in his next life as a Kia, a Nash Rambler or a politician. Now if that isn't bad karma!

Cheers,
Howard
