Above Spam?  ABOVE Spam?  Have you been smoking crack?  Treet is Spam's poor
white trash cousin who escapes his trailer home and his housecoat wearing, Bon
Bon eating, Jerry Springer watching wife nagging him to do something about the
old Ford pickup whose bed is rusted out up on cinder blocks in the front yard
by coming over to Spam's house and leaving an oily, dirty stain on the
furniture and carpets.

As an aside, I once lived with a guy who insisted on cooking slices of Spam in
a broiler-toaster.  The whole place would small like burning tires for hours.

And actually, you may be paying Treet a compliment with your characterisation. ;) (...) (24 years ago, 8-Dec-00, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build)
