RBCP, have you ever received odd e-mails? Complaints?

[afreak]

I figure that you must have some strange e-mails from running this place. For example: did our friend, Melissa in Toronto ever e-mail you about the PLA voice-bridge showing up on her CID after someone had orange boxed her?

There's a page for old stupid ones, but I think it'd be cool if Brad would dump the cream of the crop here periodically.

That's the page where a lot of my old nutty emails are.  But just a couple days ago I got a bizarre one that doesn't make a whole lot of sense.  From someone who's spent 20 years in a Canadian prison apparently.  Here it is:

 A plea from The Great White North(not pole)!!

Hey,you know where a guy asks "where ya been, in a cave for the last 20 years". Well shit yeah I've been courtesy of our fine Canadian Penal Est. So here's the deal, back in the day and I do mean back pranks and goofing on Joe&Jill citizen while enjoying some fine JA export was the cats ass. Now that I'm a fine(my opinion) member in standing or laying around when i try to introduce myself to ya'll, that's American right? this great technology with this new invention the Internet is giving me BAD mood. So help this wayward dumbshit me find the rightous path into the light. Ok  I need real friends the ones I had for the last 20 years weren't so upstanding. The site looks great I can't wait ,thanx

That's definitely the weirdest one I've gotten this year.  I get emails that are pretty weird and stupid that I don't post anywhere, just because I try to be nice and answer them.  I try to share the extra crazy ones though.  I also get occasional emails from people wanting to tap their spouse's phone line, which I've started posting here:

I'll try to keep this thread in mind for future emails I get.

Holy shit...I think I know what he was trying to say, what did you send back to him?

What is the telephone code for america?  Since you have experience, I was hoping you could give me some clues as to what you look out for.  A little advice would go a long way right now.
I am very grateful for your help.  Thankyou,
Frank

Hi,
What taxes do you pay when you  buy a house in bc?
I was thinking that your advice would be very helpful.  I know you must be very busy so any pointers would be very much appreciated.
Any info much appreciated.  I am very grateful for your help.  Thank you,
Cindy

I've never owned a house in BC. I can tell you about renting here, though. Cindy and Frank must be husband and wife!
