Sounds like a personal problem to me, but I know what a PITA it can be getting unwanted email. Being a fixed target - "my name @ my name dot com" - it ain't as easy as changing your username like an AOL account. I've had to employ a spam filter to fend off the 200 or so spams I was getting everyday. Still, I haven't fogotten how to hit the "delete" key. Quick, and painless.
I'm really a "stop me if you've already heard this" kinda guy, and don't cotton to the idea of telling jokes to a bunch of people who've already heard them ad nauseum. When I posted this file, I had no idea where it'd come from, and had never heard anything like it before. When someone mentioned Tastee Bros to me, I posted a follow-up link. A quick search located around five or so previous postings on TubeNet, none of which I'd ever seen.
Still, I can't help but think this might help...
Sorry to see you're agita about the whole thing. It *is* just a sound clip, after all. While not all would agree as to it being "in good taste" or not, a lot of people find it pretty GD funny, including me.
Ahhh, yes... public forums.
