Gouranga
OK, this was a new one to me. I recently received an email (from someone named Neateye incidentally). The Subject, "Gouranga hey" (along with the distinctive sender id) clearly marked this as spam -- but total nonsense spams often pique my interest, and I figured with a subject like that, the contents had to be something special.
I wasn't disappointed:
Call out Gouranga be happy!!!
Gouranga Gouranga Gouranga ....
That which brings the highest happiness!!
Now, I am sure there are many a seasoned web (and airport) traveller out there who grokked this immediately, but I was totally unaware that I had recevied the (in)famous Hare Krishna spam (If you follow the link check out the GTA reference, unbelievable).
Gotta love the internet.

Thoughts On: Where I've Been
Everything secret degenerates, even the administration of justice; nothing is safe that does not show how it can bear discussion and publicity. -- Lord Acton
