At last, a spam with real worth and appeal! I could do with one of those things, thanks. Partially because my dern garden grows wild and free in the time I take deleting all the needless, crass and nonsensical spam I get forwarded so incessantly, but largely because right now I feel like snipping important (if meager) soft and fleshy appendages off your body. I don't need to draw you a diagram.

So CLICK HERE if you wanna be Bobbitted quick smart with this sleek, robust, serrated saw. Or perhaps blunt scissors.

It won't hurt a bit. It'll hurt a LOT.

Fellow Investors, What has defined winning investments you've had in the past? Many will agree it was good or perfect timing. There are people who bought IBM back in January at $120 and they are losing money right now as IBM currently trades in the low $70's!! There are also people who bought small and microcaps in the same time period and are making money!! Why? Because they had good timing, that's why. Today's featured company, Indiginet just recently started trading on NASDAQ's Bulletin Board under the symbol, "IGTT". You may feel after doing your due diligence that it represents good timing for you, right here, right now!! ( Source for Price Info:Yahoo Finance Historical). This reference to past performance is specially selected to be referenced based on its favorable/unfavorable performance.

This is a list of eighty-eight constellations, all-up, visible on Earth, up in space's vacuum.

Astronomers in ancient Greece, Arabia, Mexico and Asia, and exploring Caucasian mariners observed, mapped and gave each star group arcane names - mercurial superhuman heroes, mythological creatures and various curious animals.

Polaris to Arcturus to Spica to Southern Cross; a complex panoramic circle. Our opus excludes pure spiral nebulae, quasi-circular galaxies, ubiquitous pulsars, unusual quasars, major planets or uncommon moons.

Spurious astrologers, vacuous gurus, paranoiac psychics, and manic mediums loudly murmur, as usual, auspicious star signs or particular unusual conjunctions, can exactly predict, ruin, or cure our capricious lives or mess 'em up. Many peculiar accuracies occur.

To whom related, or by whom begot;

'Tis all thou art, and all the proud shall be!

Whether awash in plaudits, pull, and loot,
Or so abhorred that no one gives a hoot;
Lo, ye then have a drab and awful doom;
Oh, hello! Welcome to the restful tomb!
