For many years the author has, like most computer users, been receiving spam emails that he used to bin straight away - until one of the more outrageous ones caught his eye. Then he began to read them more carefully and, over the course of six years, selected outstanding examples of 'scam' literature.The author was especially attracted by the inventiveness of the senders, their very particular use of the English language, and the variety of the scams on offer. This ebook scrupulously presents those emails as they were received in terms of layout, vocabulary, and spelling. The author's only intervention has been to rearrange them in eight thematic chapters and for obvious reasons, to disable their various 'links'.Having worked on this project for years, the author discovered that a fair amount of people actually had taken the bait and been duped by these mails. Needless to say, the author did not send the replies that you are about to read. They have been added to serve as a light-hearted warning against tricksters, fraudsters, swindlers, et al, who seek to extract often significant sums of money from the unwary.

The World of Gilbert & George, released in 1981, is the only feature-length film made by the pair and was the culmination of the film and video works they had produced during the previous decade. Wide in its range of imagery, moods and themes, it functions as a statement of their beliefs, as a summation of their work to that date and as a kind of blueprint for much of the art they were to make over the next twenty years. The World of Gilbert & George: The Storyboard publishes for the first time the complete text of the film, including all instructions, as well as the 900 or so drawings visualising every scene and every shot in the film. This extraordinary publication takes the reader on a picaresque voyage through the artists' world, above all their immediate environment in London's East End, as seen through their eyes and as constructed in their imagination. It is a world of extremes, taking in the beauty of nature and the urban landscape, sex and eroticism, religion and spirituality, drunkenness and degradation, fear and human aggression, raucous humour and poetry. The drawings are reproduced as a continuous frieze along the top half of the pages of this large format book, with the relevant text - be it voice-overs, dialogue, directions or simple descriptions - printed immediately below.
