Once upon a time, a blonde became so sick of hearing blonde jokes that she had her hair cut and dyed brown.

A few days later, as she was out driving around the countryside, she stopped her car to let a flock of sheep pass.

Admiring the cute wooly creatures, she said to the shepherd, "If I can guess how many sheep you have, can I take one?"

The shepherd, always the gentleman, said, "Sure!"

The blonde thought for a moment and, for no discernible reason, said, "352."

This being the correct number, the shepherd was, understandably, totally amazed, and exclaimed, "You're right! O.K., I'll keep to my end of the deal. Take your pick of my flock."

The blonde carefully considered the entire flock and finally picked the one that was by far cuter and more playful than any of the others.

When she was done, the shepherd turned to her and said, "O.K., now I have a proposition for you. If I can guess your true hair color, can I have my dog back?"

Good day.
First of all, sorry for inconvenience. I have decided to put one of the best jokes to each of my advertising messages. I promise you to choose one of the best jokes each day, hope it would decrease your irritation of my messages. [snipping off the actual spam, it was actually a decent sales pitch, and literate O.o ]

Well it did have its desired effect, I don't think it will affect my future opinion of his spam.

Now hafoc can tell me if I used affect and effect correctly...

Yah, much better then... "H 3llo recip1ent. Y0u w@nt D rug$???".

You effectively have used 'affect' in the correct context :)

The affect/effect thing I generally get correct as long as I don't think about it. If I stop and think I end up stalled for a bit.
