- I found this one in alt.tv.la-law (which is a newsgroup that has no
- excuse to exist in the first place). For your consideration

- Y'all can guess by now just what's wrong with this one. Idiotic Latin
- moniker, ascii rose, and mirror image message down in the lower right.
- The aesthetic use of tabs is quite intriguing, and Senor Santiago can
- obviously afford to use three e-mail addresses (but who the hell is
- Jake?). I particularly hate the border, which, for all it's alternating
- -'s and ='s, still comes off as insipid.
-
- Eat you? Sure thing, Sean. I think you would taste great braised in
- a white(space) sauce, with asparagus tips and a hearty Bordeaux.
-
- Let's face it, some .sigs are gaudy, some are simple. This is an
- essentially simple .sig trying to be gaudy, which in my eyes is the
- worst sin of all. Kinda like the difference between Elvis and
- Elvis impersonators.
