Saw posted a vw motor 20bucks could be 1500 or 1600 but whatever 20bucks and turns by hand still  wouldnt be out much if its dead

http://portland.craigslist.org/mlt/pts/305366989.html

so I ask the normal questions
Do you still have it and where you located

this is what they email back

"WHAT PART OF "IF YOU SEE THIS AD YES ITS STILL FOR SALE" DONT YOU UNDERSTAND YOU bleepING MORON?"



so in conclusion

1. Motor is stolen
2. another reason teens should not be allowed on the net

So I responded back... couldn't help it.

Hi,
 
Is the engine still for sale?  Does it have a flywheel?  Would you take $19 for it?  When did it run last?

Hey, he said "no BS" you #$%& Maroon.  That must be the new internet chat speak every one is talking about. It's all the rage.  Perhaps if you were "fly" like me you'd get it.  Well, I'm just kidding you know, but you never can tell who is on the other end of an ad.  Some folks are like that I 'spose.  What sucks is the engine is in the cargo area of an old Bus!!  It just ain't right I tell ya.  You guys are too much.

(P.S.  I will have to credit Bugs Bunny for the "Maroon" bit.)

Wow... That is quite rude. No fun to end up with an email like that.
