a love letter to Hans
i received this touching email this morning:
To: avisionthing@gmail.com aka Hans
From: nova_kazanova@03.ru aka Maria B
Subject: Hallo...
Hello, Hans
I am writing to you with a hope in my heart to find in you my love that I have been looking for!
I have just parted my ex-boyfriend because I realized that we were a nice couple but nothing more.
He was not my true love so I decided to keep on looking!
So, maybe I will take a chance on you? What do you think? Maybe we should be together?
If you are interested find me here http://sweetheartsdating.com/mylove/
and we could start our virtual relations!
see you later....
Marie B.
how lovely. hahaha. spam is the funniest invention ever.
watched Two Weeks Notice and A Very long Engagement last night. the latter made me cry, i was surprised it did. this one part, i just... it was overwhelmingly good, and incredibly touching. katherin, have you seen it? Manech and Mathilde were engaged, so Manech used to carve "MMM" everywhere; Mathile marriee Manech, Macech marrie Mathilde. and he goes missing in the war and Mathilde is trying to track him down and then, on day in a coffee shop, a woman is eavesdropping on her conversation and then get up, goes over to the chalkboard where the menu ws written, and wipes off everything but the beginning letter of three words. it says "MMM." and i gasped, literally. and tears. it was really intense. "elle l'a regarde, et elle l'a regarde, et elle l'a regarde...."
anyway. off to classes now, be back around 2.30. katherine, hope you're settling in okay and you get internet up soonish. ("i will love you soonish" haha.)
EDIT //
i dont mean to keep editing these entires, i t feel like a doof.
but im having far too much fun with spam. this one came with about... oh, id say 65 little scroll boxes, each with a fragment or word or name in them. i put them in their own sentence, but each little bit was in a tiny scroll box, for whatever reason. haha. pay attention around te middle, it switches not-so-subtlely from garbeldygook, pseudo-compehendable randomness to... the Da Vinci Code?

Stunned, Langdon. collapsed in a chair. He sat for a moment. utter bewielderment. Gradually his eyes. were drawn to the. blinking red light. of his fax machine. Whoever had sent this. fax was still on the. line waiting. to talk. Langdon. gazed at the blinking. He felt like a paleontologist. Langdon's eyes. were locked on, the brand. Illuminati. he read over and over. His work had always. been based on the. symbolic equivalant. of fossils. documents and historical. . but this image before him. was today. present tense.
i was really moved. it seemed to hold some kind of deeper meaning, something beautiful under all that spamity-nastiness. i thought about the subject line... {Spam?} and i tought of how appropriate that was. was it spam? was it something else? who knows? did the spammer know what he could have possibly been doing when he sent this? who is steve? i pondered my life, the spammers life, and God. Henry Beckett. Ben Trotter. Kathryn Gerhard. Omar. Olga. Stan. who were these people? why had fate brought them so abruptly into my life, if i wasnt to ever meet them? where was destiny taking me now? was i ready?
then i saw this:
ViagraSoft $3.66 CialisSoft $3.78 Levitra $4.90 Viagra $3.00
and my hopes for a depper meaning were shattered.
and i just remembered what it was that sounded vaguely similar to that last email, and it's this:
Shaw: Prison.
Everyone: .....
Riley Poole: Albuquerque. See I can do it too. [pause] Snorkel.
