Pretty amazing.  More amazing that a kid from Uruguay made it for $300 and now has a $30M check from a major studio to make a feature.  Rock on.

“While spammers will often alter their messages to look different, some are remarkably consistent. The table shows the top message FROM/SUBJECT line pairs over the last five years. We have also included our estimate of how many of each message was sent Internet-wide.  To give you some sense, assuming an average message storage requirement of 4KB, over the last 5 years the total storage requirement imposed on the Internet by just the spammers sending the top-20 spam campaigns was over 2.5 petabytes.”  WOW - Research from Project Honey Pot on spam.

Good news is that I truly out did myself this year with my Christmas decorations. The bad news is that I had to take him down after two days. I had more people come screaming up to my house than ever. Great stories. But two things made me take it down.
First, the cops advised me that it would cause traffic accidents as they almost wrecked when they drove by.
Second, a 55 year old lady grabbed the 75 pound ladder almost killed herself putting it against my house and didn’t realize that it was fake until she climbed to the top (she was not happy). By the way, she was one of the many people who attempted to do that. My yard couldn’t take it either. I have more than a few tire tracks where people literally drove up my yard.
