Default The new forbidden word for colored water

I had to be careful and creative in composing the header for this
message.

I learned that * ink* is now a word banned by my ISP in message
headers. I had attempted a personal reply to a message from a member
of this group. It got deleted, and I was sternly warned by the
Symantec robot that I had attenpted to send out "illegal content."

Upon checking with my network administrator, he replied that they have
banned
* ink* because of gthe spam ads for ink cartridges.

I replied, "How about if you let those through, in exchange for your
banning all the ads I receive daily for viagra, penis enlargements,
and anything from Nigeria?"

No answer, yet.

So now I guess I can only refer to the fluid as colored water. But
then, if I were to mention orange colored water, oh my, that might
sound too kinky!

Ummmm. . . try "writing fluid." That's what some of the manufacturers used
in marketing their inks.

Maybe he didn't think viagra and all that stuff is spam? Bet he placed some
orders, and now is going, "WHAT? That stuff was spam?!!?"

that might sound too kinky!


HEY!! leave my hair OUT of this!
