[Bombast] Re:Unsubscribe

Lee Robertson pleaded....
>Please unsubsribe me from this list

Here's an easy way to un-sub.

Please read these instructions carefully
before beginning.

Tools needed: one hammer, one screwdriver, one pair of pliers, one
heavy-duty pair of wire cutters, one bucket of saline water, a box of
sani-wipes.

Step #1: Stop payment on any checks that you may have sent to your
Internet Service Provider (GOD).

Step #2: If GOD is unresponsive and you are still receiving mail from
thislist, you will need to find the "mailhost". This is a machine
usually located in a locked office. Every day around noon, the mailman
will deliver a box of diskettes with that day's mail messages, including
yours from this list, to this machine. Typically, only a handful of
people have keys to the "mailhost". The reason why this machine is
locked up is because this is typically the best, fastest, most powerful
computer at your facility and the people with keys don't want to share
it. If you must, break or pry the door down with one (1) hammer (you
did get all the tools needed?).

Step #3: Find the ON/OFF switch for this machine. Using the pliers, set
the switch to the OFF position by tugging downwards until the disposable
plastic switch breaks away from the computer casing. Discard the
disposable plastic switch in an environmental-friendly manner. This
will alert the mailman to not deliver the diskettes with the messages to
the "mailhost" not unlike the little red flag found on mailboxes. This
should resolve your mail problem immediately.

Step #4: You may experience a recurrence of mail within 72 hours.
If this should happen, you will need to disable the "mailhost" once
again with more forceful measures. Repeat Step #2. Don't be suprised
if there is a sturdier door in place than the one you destroyed
previously. This is due to the fact that the "Have Key" clique found out
that someone has seen their private stash of computer equipment.

Step #5: After you have once again regained entry into the
"mailhost" room, open up the back of the "mailhost". There may be a
large tv-like device on top of the "mailhost" You will need to remove
this first. Take your wire cutters, and cut any cables binding the
tv-like device to the "mailhost". Set the tv-like device to the side.
With your screwdriver, remove each and every screw that you can find on
the "mailhost". Once this is done, the "mailhost" should break away
into two or more pieces.

Step #5: Find a large box with a fan attached to it. It will be clearly
marked with the following labels: "Danger" "High Voltage" "Do not open -
no user-servicable parts". Don't worry, these labels are merely in
place to satisfy OSHA requirements and you are not in any danger at all.
Take the bucket of saline water and pour it into any vents or ports that
the large box may have. Any extra water should be poured directly into
the computer chassis, be sure to properly soak each and every component.

Step #6: In the event of fire (OSHA has been known to be right on
occassion), douse any flames with the sani-wipes.

This solution is provided without warranty. It is not bio-degradable or
fat-free. In the event of sudden death, contact a physician
immediately.


or .... as mars explained , it could be easier at Yahoo.
