I get mail (28/9/2013)
I'm not sure how I got on this mailing list, but I received the following, sent as an image, not text.

To: Me and 70 other people (sender hasn't heard of BCC)
Subject: My Welcome to a New Season of the Enigma Channel

Mr Everard's web site is a throwback to the days of Geocities (including a block of text containing a large number of irrelevant words designed to attract search engines – the sort of thing that Google has ignored for years) and seems to be a representation of the author's chaotic mental state. You can download his free book here, but make sure you've got the Ventolin handy for the laughter-induced asthma attack and have one of those gel wrist pads on the desk so that you don't hurt yourself when you bang your head on the furniture.

Note: I've linked to the download on Mr Everard's site for two reasons: 1)  I'm not wasting my bandwidth on it, and 2) Mr Everard expressly forbids anyone else from distributing it.

[In April 2014 I found that Mr Everard was no longer providing a link to his wonderful book. Luckily, I had saved a copy so you can now download it from here. I'm sorry of this upsets Mr Everard because of his "no distribution" rule. Really sorry.]

There's this expression you often see on the Internet: "Batshit crazy". Sometimes it seems so inadequate.
