E-mail from AChurch - Why!? WHY!?

It appears that I have been rejected. I'll see you guys later, I'm going to throw myself off a bridge now.

Quote:
Dear Louis,

I regret to inform you that you have been eliminated from further
contention as Mr. Right.

As you are probably aware, the competition was exceedingly tough
and dozens of well-qualified candidates such as yourself also
failed to make the final cut. I will, however, keep your name on
file should an opening become available. So that you may find
better success in your future romantic endeavors, please allow me
to offer the following reason(s) why you were disqualified from
the competition:


___ You live in Flippin, Arkansas. EDIT: She got the town wrong. So much for her touted information gathering skills!

___ You live in ARKANSAS!

___ You failed the credit check.

___ I'm not attracted to you in 'that' way.

___ My life is too complicated right now.

___ It's not you, it's me.

___ I'm concentrating on my career.

___ I'm celibate.

___ Three words: Size does matter. HOW DID SHE FIND OUT ABOUT THIS!?!


Sincerely,

Alecia

Some interesting information. The headers follow:

We don't need most of this, so let's chop it down to the relevant sections.

Now, idig.net is omniscienteyes.com's host. They sent the e-mail to Hotmail. They themselves received the e-mail from "koonzee" locally. In other words, a user named "koonzee" sent it through idig. The last part is what matters. Koonzee sent it via HTTP - in other words, a webform at omniscienteyes.com

Where is a webmail most likely located?

www.omniscienteyes.com/mail

BAM!

..but probably not in-game. Yet.

And it goes on.

Quote:

Louis,

You are correct I did get your city wrong. I had limited time to track you
down and got as close as I could. I am sorry for that slight mistake.

Sorry, I had a momentary flash of compassion. Fortunately, it's passed.

What is this, some sort of dork outreach program? You didn't think your
letters would spiritually move me did you? Oh you did. Isn't that sweet.
Your not going to cry are you?

I think this will be the last one I will send. I can not hope to top her response this time.

Quote:
Louis,

I admire your tenacity. It seems like you don't give up very easily, but
sometimes no DOES mean no. Are you some kind Submissive Freak? Recently
we have done research on a Philip Vector. I hear he's looking for a
submissive. Maybe you should email him.

Mos, these are priceless!

Good thing Alecia seems to have a sense of humor!

I hope she uses her wrath on him. I will gladly join forces with her for that one. Twisted Evil

I sent her this final e-mail, and I just got a reply. I think our relationship might be having problems. Maybe we should seek counselling?

First mate Louis of the S.S. Minnow,

I too am reminded of a book. Women are from Venus, Men are from Mars and
Louis is from Uranus.

Your poem burned through me like a hemorrhoid in need of some Preparation
H. Then I realized it was only indigestion from a burrito I ate at
lunch.


Fortunately I am quiet bored with you now. Go and fly away now before I
squash you like a bug.
