Please make it stop

I posted an ad for a small, low-value job to losangeles.craigslist.com, asking people to send me URL examples of their work. I have an idea for an anti-Kerry bumper sticker.

I get 63 frigging replies.

That wouldn't be a problem, except now I gotta sort through all these goshdarn HTML-formatted emails trying to differentiate between the artists' URLs and the spam URLs inserted by their mailing software. I did a grep for http, but I'm sure I didn't get all the URLs. So, I need to search through each frigging message.

Once again, Tim Berners-Lee should be sent the bill for all the productivity lost courtesy of his "brilliant" idea.
