SPAM!

Does it count as spamming to transfer someone a penny to their bank account, but add an advert in the 'reference'?

So the statement'll show things like:
Sainsburies, 22.33
Shell, 39.20
*BUY YOUR VIAGRA FROM WWW.VIAGRA.COM*, 0.01 CR


etc.

It'd cost less than postage on junk mail...

Job opportunity

I'm almost tempted actually...

Thank MONTY!

I've just remembered how much I like Monty's Miniguns

Now you remember these enthusiasts for the barratt M82A1 with it's .50cal rounds?

Allow me to share with you the GAU 19/A
Yes, that's right, a rotary .50cal minigun.

OK, I still think the H&G grenade machinegun is one of the most evil ideas ever, but, it's hard pressed when faced with such evidence (11Mb).

That said there is a demo video of the GMG. It's not quite as much fun though...
