Sorry to double post, but according to their tracker, we’re the 5th highest referrer of hits, not counting their own site!! No wonder we keep getting these weasels here.

You want I should break their server’s kneecaps?

Seriously, I don’t know what I would do. But perhaps I could give it a shot. Hypothetically, of course.

If that’s the case and people must rubber-neck over there, please open another browser, start from some nondescript area. They can still track IP addresses but at least we aren’t giving them more ammunition to spam.

BTW, I have never seen such a shitty looking site for someone that wants to sell something so amazing \< choking on that\>. You’d think they would invest in a decent designer to prepare their site.

Heck I would do it…

I am cutting back on cigs so my fingers need to stay busy, so far I am half of what I usually smoke and been looking fondly at the two I have now, stretching them out before I have to make a run in the bitter cold to the store…

interesting. In his site he lists a MD address but the domain has a San Francisco PO box… Hmmm… I wonder if the toll free number is listed to an address elsewhere…

I just had an idea. I’ll send an email to the local DC area TV stations who always have news segments of stuff like this.
