*** Airplane Warranty ***
This was posted very briefly on the McDonnell Douglas
Website by an employee there who obviously has a sense
of humor. The company, of course, does not have a sense
of humor, and made the web department take it down
immediately (for once, the "IMPORTANT" note at the
end is worth a read too...)

IMPORTANT: This e-mail is intended for the use of the individual addressee(s) named above and may contain
information that is confidential privileged or unsuitable for overly sensitive persons with low self-esteem,
no sense of humor, or irrational religious beliefs.
If you are not the intended recipient, any dissemination,
distribution or copying of this email is not authorized

Unless the word 'absquatulation' has been used in its correct context somewhere other than in this warning,
it does not have any legal or grammatical use, and may be ignored. No animals were harmed or molested
in the transmission of this email, although the kelpie next door is living on borrowed time, let me tell you.
Those of you with an overwhelming fear of the unknown
will be gratified to learn that there is no hidden
message revealed by reading this backwards, so just
ignore that Alert Notice from Microsoft.
However, by pouring a complete circle of salt around
yourself and your computer you can ensure that no harm
befalls you and your pets.
If you have received this email in error, please add
some nutmeg and egg whites, whisk, and place in a warm
oven for 40 minutes
