Now you too can enjoy my Inbox without the annoying spam. Every week I get some amazing e-mail. Some amazing because of the sheer cluelessness of the sender, some because of the time and energy that went into crafting them and some are just simply amazing.

Why you should get to know me: "Because I'm 36 and can still admit that I always make time to watch The Simpsons, Futurama, ST:TNG, ST:TOS, Firefly, Farscape, Babylon 5, Dr. Who, Monty Python's Flying Circus."
I have one thing to ask; will you marry me? I'm a guy so it could complicate things but America is pretty liberal these days, no?
Keep up the good work everyone at BBspot, the site has kept me entertained for years, often find co-workers looking at me as I chuckle.
Damn, if only I had waited to get married.
