Interesting article. I knew the time would come were Spam would have to fight against the usage of the word "spam" for unwanted, solicited junk e-mail (and posts...ha!)

Spam saved my life...
When I was 16, I was surfing at Halfmmoon Bay.
Knowing that I would not be able to leave the enormous swells, not even for a moment, I decided to take my lunch out with me (Spam on rye).
Suddenly, as I was waiting to catch the next wave, I noticed a large dark shadow lurking beneath me.
Right then I knew that I was on the menu of a great white shark.
So I paniced... and I did what any sensible 16 year old would do....
I threw my spam sandwich about 15 feet away... Now everyone knows that spam is the number 1 food of chioce for GWS's (and surfers for that matter).
So, while the beast was going for the potted meat... I had enough time to swim back to shore.
Whew.... I was lucky that day.

I'd send that story in to Hormel. Might be worth a free can.
And to paraphrase Adam Sandler...
 Respect to the Spam-ma

I believe you, really.

LOL.
Actually, I think I said "There ain't no Tiki in Cleveland"...
...and while I am tempted to say it's true for N'awlins too, well, YOU'RE there, PJ. Maybe there are no Tiki Bars in the big easy, but your cool pendants and frequent TC postings remind us that the spirits haven't forsaken the swamps of the south entirely. There is Tiki in New Orleans as long as you are there.

Um, yeah...that's what "paraphrase" means.
(And actually you did say something similar about N.O.)
But thank you for the rest, my skirt is chock-full of sunshine now.

If there ain't no tiki in New Orleans, then there definitely, positively, abso-forking-lutely aint no tiki in Toronto.
Well, except for that giant pink Moai...
