Mysterious Spider Email
From News.com.au:
THE man whose attempt to pay a bill with a drawing of a spider became an internet sensation says he is a serial prankster who believes the web should be a playground.
David Thorne, who runs the website 27bslash6.com, said the “spider drawing” emails became so popular that his site crashed under the strain of hundreds of thousands of visitors last week.
The emails, in which the prankster tries to pay a bill with a drawing of a seven-legged spider, are just one of the jokes posted to the website – and Mr Thorne says they are all real.
