It's going to be a week of odd spam, I guess.

One that came in this morning had the subject line, "Muscle craps"

So many possible responses to that:

the standard, "Nothing good can come of this"

"I'm Mike Rowe, and this is my job*."

For want of an "m," the Charley Horse was lost.

Is it "muscle" or "mussel?" Because that second one can be fixed by just letting them sit in clean cool water for a while will, um, eliminate the problem.

Or maybe it's what happens when someone on Muscle Beach tries to lift to heavy a barbell...


(*I actually like this one as sort of an all-purpose comment on dealing with stuff in life you'd rather not deal with....but then I have kind of a tv-crush on Mike Rowe.)

I have actually considered, as a joke, putting "Mike Rowe For President" somewhere on my blog. But who would he pick for VP?

No idea. I suppose Bear Grylls is out, because he's not U.S. born.

But how awesome would it be, on January 21st, for him to get up in front of Congress and start off with, "I'm Mike Rowe....and this is my job."
