I think MBFFB® just blew another artery. I don't think Louie uses the Internets; otherwise, he would've seen all the lovely spam, wonderful spam he could sink his teeth into.

Is "spam" really an Internet term? I've always heard it with regard to e-mail, and apparently it's also used in MMORPGs (my sons talk about "spamming" within World of Warcraft).
