This is TOO funny! It's tailor-made for bards...

Somebody sent this spam to my husband today. He nearly died laughing. 
The funny thing is (or is it sad?) that only a bard or folkie (folk 
music devotee) would have a clue as to what this is all about. 

Talk about a new twist on the old "Nigerian 419" email frauds! :D

for me and my milk cow called Derek. For the intrest of doing business 
please do not hesitate to contact MR DEREK GUERNSEY on 27-731-450-735
