Where's Sanford Wallace Now?

capt.Hij writes "There is a story at Fosters about Sanford Wallace who is described as once being the 'King of Spam.' The story describes how he made lots of money in the early days of the internet but got tired of fighting the spam fighters. He is now the owner of a night club in New Hampshire. Here is how he describes his life now: 'Back in the day, I used to make lots of money surrounded by computers. Now, I make lots of money surrounded by beautiful women.'" If "Sanford Wallace" doesn't ring a bell, you need to read some old stories.

    Sure, he made a lot of money on spam. And now he's surrounded by drop-dead gorgeous women.

    I also understand that he's incredibly handsome, hung like a horse, rescues puppies, and can cure leprosy with a mere laying-on of hands. He's on the Pope's short-list, can beat Kasparov in any chess match, and walks on water. Further, he is the inventor of a working perpetual motion machine, has single-handedly saved a small third-world nation from disaster, and loves his mother.

    He is not, of course, a habitual liar.

    And guess what - you DON'T NEED TO WEAR A BULLET PROOF VEST... (quoted from Fosters about an event at the competition, 360 nightclub, Saturday Oct 11)... "a gun had been fired on the property" ... "He fired one round" ... You don't need to worry about gun fights at Plum Crazy! People come to Plum to dance and have fun, not to get involved in attempted first degree assault and gun shootings!

    Damn, I'm always seeking out the hot "first degree assault and gun shootings" scene...

    Plum Crazy nightclub on Route 11 in Rochester NY burned to ground in an overnight fire. The structure was a total loss. A statement form Rochester Fire Chief, Floyd Madison, "We have ruled this fire suspicious in nature. Perhaps the most bizarre thing is the number of charred cans of spam we found".
