Here's an interesting item that just showed up in our mailbag. Seems some freaks in Germany are convinced that Pigdog is part of the great Tellytubbie Conspiracy. I'm figuring that some WebCrawler ran across this wonderful old RatSnatcher article, and we ended up in some half-assed marketing daturbase. And the funny thing is that he insists that this is piece of SPAM is confidential information. No, I'm sorry Robert, if you want something to remain confidential with Pigdog, you ask us first and maybe, just maybe, we'll agree to let you be one of our sooper serkit confidential information sources. But don't ever tell us to do anything... like delete an email, or not copy it or even email you to unsubscribe us from your damn SPAM list. You unsubscribe us. Cause if you sending us unsolicited email - you should know, we're JOURNALISTS GODDMANNIT, and we'll publish WHATEVER the hell we want! Oh, and one more thing, Robert... Tellytubbies suck a big gooey wad of hate and I'm laughing at you because you have to deal with them all day long. Enjoy your small pathetic life, Robert.
