“well we have a spam and a tango but I can't ever remember whether a person or troll by the name of tang was ever seen here”

“you missed them HOI , they were both really hot too”

“There's nothing quite like a steaming mug o' Tang.

Spam... I just don't know, LOL”

“Does anyone else remember "Space Food Sticks"????”

“Any one remember Pop Rocks?

HOI Where have you been? I hope you've been hiking. Happy holidays!”

“somebody at work had pop rocks not too long ago,,,,it was the first time I had seen them in years”

“on a school trip i spilled half a bag of pop rocks on the carpet in the hotel room. So we dumped a glass of water on it and watched them pop. We didn't make too much of a mess.”

“I remember Space Food Sticks, BWD. My Mom use to get them, and I'd chow down on them like they were going to be discontinued. Little did I know they WOULD be dicontinued.”

“do y'all remember?”

“Pop rocks Rock!

“I thought they took Pop Rocks off the market. I liked the grape ones. Yeah, I remember Space Food Sticks. The peanut butter ones were the best. Seems like they were taken off the shelf about the same time that NASA's missions to the moon fell out of favor.”

“Instead of using the common store-bought variety of Orange Tang.... I have been making my own concoction using prunes.....
I find that proon-tang goes a long way !!!

“fried spam sandwiches, with mustard and lettuce..................yummy”

“fuchsia and chartreuse

SPAM© and Mountain Dew©!”

“This just proves again that backpackers can survive -- and probably be goofily happy -- anywhere.

We were able to get the Chinese version of both while in Chengdu -- Wu Can Rou was the name on the Spam lookalike. Came in a red can with a cow on the side, and the first time we though we might be buying corned beef, though after the first time we were never convinced it was really beef and not pork. When the meat in the open air markets was looking iffy and we got tired of tea smoked duck and rabbit, it was old home week with some pan-fried sorta-Spam.

The Tang was really Tang, but was being marketed to the Chinese in lichee flavor along with orange. In Chinese, the word for sugar or sweet is pronounced "tang" so it was really truth in advertising.”

“what is it with the Chinese and lichee?? I was in the Coca-Cola museum in Vegas, they serve other Coke products from around the world. They had a Chinese Lichee soda in there... tasted surprisingly like dishwater”

“Spammer ducks for cover as details published on web

By JUHA SAARINEN New Zealand Herald

A New Zealander who sent millions of junk emails out every day has shut his business after his personal details were posted on the web.

Shane Atkinson - whose business is known as spamming - said the barrage of abuse made him worry about the safety of his children.

His identity as the man behind millions of spam messages promoting #&%!$ enlargement pills was revealed in a Herald article last week. Mr Atkinson said that on a good day he and his associates would send out 100 million messages.

He said that since the article was published, anti-spam activists had been "having a field day". He had received more than 20 phone calls, five of them obscene.

His personal information, street address and phone numbers were "plastered all over the web", he had been subscribed to a gay-dating site and his email address had been added to "tons of email lists".

"I have already banned my 5-year-old from answering the phone," he said.

The article also led to rackshack.com, the US web service that hosts Mr Atkinson's servers, being entered in the Spam Early Warning System list, which many networks use for blocking email traffic.

Rackshack gave notice that it would shut down two of Mr Atkinson's servers because of the listing, forcing him to move the servers to a different network.

Mr Atkinson has decided to get out of the spamming business, citing the "negative feedback" and saying that he "never intended to break any regulations". He has asked affiliates to stop doing the work for him.

"I sort of feel good now about stopping this," he said.

"I'll just stick to search engines and web sites - that's still plenty of fun and money."

Internet group InternetNZ has said it will file formal complaints against Mr Atkinson with the Commerce Commission, the Ministry of Health and the Privacy Commissioner.

New Zealand does not have specific anti-spam laws.”

“Get 'im!”

“So WHAT'S HIS PHONE NUMBER?????”

“Need your pills?”

“This is the best story I have read in a long time.”

“Hey look, a group it's okay to hate.

Spammers!”

“Spam sucks!!!!!!

“I still get teh same amount of spam. Tsss!!”

“Maybe one inch wang turned him in!”
