BBspot Mailbag

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.


BBelievers

Some people on Digg thought our story on the RIAA changing their mission statement was real ...

Oh, so they are in it for the money. I'm glad they made that crystal clear now.

Our story about Sony bundling a Wii with every Playstation 3 snagged some BBelievers too...

Wow if this is true, then this is VERY important and has set a new precedent!

And...

To me this site is like a national enquirer, but who knows.  Sometimes the most off the wall reports are true.  I have no fricken clue.

And...

I guess it's true that Sony would not allow the PlayStation to fail this generation.

And...

I don't think they can do that can they. No, I'm sure that Sony can't manufacture Nintendo products.

And...

Is this guy stupid ? If your just using the Ps3 as a doorstop , why spend a extra 450 ? Am I the only one not getting that , very weird indeed, too bad I didnt hold could have gotten a free Wii

It's hard to tell if this guy BBelieves the Daylight Saving Time story or not...

Subject: Families Work Less Act

Hi Brian:

I just saw your article about the Families Work Less Act. It is the first time on your site. This is super. I am giving a speech for Toastmasters tomorrow and was looking for a topic. Do you have any more info about this great idea? It is a hoot!

I hope he mentioned it in his speech.

That should hold you BBeliever junkies for another week.


BBook Ideas

One reader had a suggestion for a BBook title...

One title you over looked could be

Countdown to the BBig One: The Brian Briggs Story.

It could outline the various accidents and discuss how soon the bbig one was likely to occur.

I don't think BBspotters will be happy until the BBig one happens.


Weekly Limerick

The winner of the 2003 and 2006 Geek Limerick contest has volunteered to write a weekly limerick for BBspot. I haven't decided where to put it yet, so this week's I'll put in the Mailbag...

From: Seth

Though Gonzales won't cop to the deed,
he Dumped lawyers without pro-Bush creed.
We See emails that prove
That he planned for this move
,
But he lies so fast, folks call him "Speedy".
