Gae drown ye in the raging sea or hang on the gallows-pin

Last night, I received spam for "gallows conservation" from Lazarus Copeland.

(The other really good one was for "bizet and accreditation," which [livejournal.com profile] fleurdelis28 and I agreed must have been advertising Certified Public Toreadors.)

I kind of need to do something with this . . .

Lazarus Copeland? Didn't he write "Stygian Spring"?

The gallows wear out much more slowly when the recipients rise from the dead afterwards...

I don't know, maybe the gallows get healed, too. Write to Lazarus Copeland and ask him how it works... :P

Does that mean that my shoes will never get holes if I spend equal amounts of time walking forward and backward?

Only if you walk on beatified streets.

With all the urban renewal in this area, those should be easy to find.

Incidentally, "beautified" is spelled with a U.

And 'beatified' is spelling without one. :)

Evidently...

Sigh. Wordplay is wasted on the . . . um . . . unwordplayiscious.

Some of the spam I got today had bits of Hitchhiker's Guide in the text. :)
