[Vision2020] what can I do about this spam attack????

[Carl Westberg]

Speaking of baseball.....what do Tim Lohrmann, Doug Jones and I have in 
common?  Quite possibly one thing. We're all wondering what the heck is up 
with the Mariners.......it's May 13 and you can stick a fork in them.  And 
darn it, Bill, I was just about to order some of that stuff from you.
