At first we were flattered by the notion that other people wanted us to post their links. It meant they really liked us and respected our website, and were hoping they too were worthy for inclusion.

Horse hockey.

It means they want free advertising and they think we'll fall for it if they beg enough or offer some sort of graft. Sadly, we're stupid and fall for it almost every time. Here then are some people who write to us, fishing for a link or trying to sell us something. They asked for it; here it is.

From Korin Tian on 14 July 2003:

Dear Sir or Madam:
We take the liberty to write to you and will appreciate your attention on this mail.
We have a foundry engaging in brake rotor casting. We have been in this field for
years and have gained the fame for our products step by step.
 
With the CNC lathe from Japan, we are able to keep the run out below 0.04mm and the
surface roughness to be 1.6.  

Now we export about 50 containers of brake rotor and other casting parts annually to
the US market,
but our ability is not fully used and we are now seeking for new buyers. 

Quotation by drawings or samples will be ok and we will quote in 3days after
reception of your inquiry.

You can refer to our website for details:
www.szautoparts.com and
www.bacoengineering.com

Well, it's a good thing you wrote! Because my Camaro has the Dread Warped Rotor Syndrome, and I've been looking for a way to economically buy about 50 containers worth of brake rotors for it.

The world's only source for Lister ground effects is Lister Components 
and Cars, formerly Lister North America.We manufacture the ground 
effects and wings for XJS from 1976 through 1996. Our website is pretty 
crude right now as we've got several other projects taking priority but 
the address is www.captainjaguarscathouse.com. We also supply parts at 
great prices for all Jaguars. Our business has been operating since 1973 
servicing Jaguars under Jaguar Services of Tulsa and we purchased Lister 
in January of 2001. We are interested in being added to your list of 
suppliers.
Hi John, be sure to set up a reciprocal link for us and we'll do it. Otherwise, this listing will have to do.

From Gerard van Wilgen on 12 December 2002:

Dear sir or madam,

I should like to draw your attention to a new site that might be of some interest to
visitors of neptune.spacebars.com.

"Majstro" (www.majstro.com) is a multilingual translation dictionary with a
vocabulary database that is based on more recent versions of the Ergane wordlists
that are currently used by Travlang. Since your site has a link to the Travlang
dictionaries I should like to propose that you add a link to Majstro as well. Not
only are several of the wordlists (including the one for English) significantly
larger than those used by Travlang, the Majstro dictionary also supports more
languages and has several useful features, such as:

- Virtual keyboards for entering characters that are not easily typed with a national
keyboard (including Greek and Cyrillic letters).

- The possibility to use SQL wildcards for searching words that match a specific
pattern.

- Recognition of alternative spellings (e.g. color/colour) and frequently used
mis-spellings (e.g. recieve/receive).

Yours sincerely,

Gerard van Wilgen (author of the Ergane dictionary application)
Gerard, once again, post a reciprocal link and we'll put you front and center.

From Gerard van Wilgen on 4 November 2002:

Dear webmaster,

I should like to draw your attention to the new on-line multilingual translation
dictionary Majstro at http://www.majstro.com. Since you have links to Travlang's
translation dictionaries on your site I assume that you might be interested in this
new dictionary.

It uses more recent (and in some cases significantly larger) versions of the
vocabulary files at the Travlang site, and the user interface is somewhat more
sophisticated.

Sincerely,

Gerard van Wilgen

It has a very large English dictionary with an integrated thesaurus.
It corrects your spelling.  It translates the correct sense of the word
to German, French, Spanish, Dutch, or Portuguese, with much
larger dictionary sizes than most online services.  It can be put on
browsers, mobile phones, and various wireless devices.

A request to evaluate our search engine to see if you find it worthy of reviewing, or
adding to your existing links to search engines, was sent to contacts on your website
last week by mistake.  A software bug in our system sent the email out to the wrong
contact list you are a part of, which had not yet been personally verified by me.

The original email was intended for colleges and other .edu websites we had
previously researched.  As a result multiple contacts on your site may have been
contacted prematurely before you were evaluated.

We have since taken the time to look at your site and found a link to another
meta-search engine at:

From Daniel Johnson on 17 April 2002:

Hi There!

I recently came across a copy of your resume. In case you're
back on the market, you can maximize your opportunities by
instantly putting your resume on all the best career sites at
http://start.resumerabbit.com - It really works!

You fill out one simple form and immediately you can be
seen by over 1.5 million employers and recruiters daily!

In about 15 minutes you'll be posted to all the major sites
like: Monster, Headhunter, Hot Jobs, Dice, Job.com and
more. It'll save you 60 hours in research and data entry.

Check out http://start.resumerabbit.com - I think you'll
like it. You don't even need a current resume. They offer an
easy resume builder so you can finish in minutes.

It's a tough job market right now. For the competitive edge
you've got to be in the right places at the right times.  So put
your resume where millions are searching daily.  You'll also
have access to millions of job listings you couldn't find in
any one single place.

Even if you do it by hand, give yourself maximum exposure
by posting your resume on as many career sites as possible.
That's my tip for the week!

Best Wishes!

Dan Johnson
Manager
danny_johnson@all-execs.com
So, lemme see if I understand the premise of your website correctly. For sixty bucks, you'll post my resume to dozens of job boards that I've never heard of, is that about right? I've got some bad news for ya, Danny, it won't be long and resumerabbit.com is gonna be resumerabbit.dud. I hope they're not paying you in company stock.

First,  you have an excellent web site.   THANKS for all the help.

You may take a look at:   http://cf.democratandchronicle.com/smartdog/
The Industrial Management Council of Rochester, NY has teamed up
with the Rochester newspaper (Democrat & Chronicle) to create the
web site:   "Smart Dog," which is an excellent job site for engineers,
IT, and other high tech positions.   You do have to register (free) to use
the service.   (Check it out, and see what you think.)
Compared to some of the hoons who've been granted internet access and use it to pester me lately, getting a link-beggar that I can coldly shrug off without a second thought is a nice change of pace.

From H. Nakamura on 21 January 2002:

Distributor wanted !

Please let us introduce our company ,LAC Corporation ,Tokyo as the manufacturer of
the color digital printer called Vehicle Art Robo. For more detail, please visit our
web site at
http://www.jade.dti.ne.jp/~lac/var
As you see in our web site, Vehicle Art Robo is a unique product which can print
directly onto the car bodies in the world. Vehicle Art Robo does not use the films.
So, it will make printing job at very low cost.  Then, its profit margin is big.
Vehicle Art Robo does not need such a special paint booth (Spray Booth) equipment and
its handling is easy. Using our special inks, the printed image allows for ease of
removal when graphics are no longer desired and coatings will in no way damage the
original body surface. Our Vehicle Art Robo will highly contribute to the owners of
Car Body Kits Shops, Car Body Styling Shops and Custom Made Car Shops in terms of
business opportunity and profit.
Now , we are searching for a distributor for our products. We would like you to
consider becoming a distributor or introduction of our Vehicle Art Robo into your
company.  Our e-mail address is lac@laccorp.com. Please contact us for any question
or requirement.
Thank you.

From Marggie Kay Probst on 14 January 2002:

Hi,

I reviewed spacebears.com and would like a link from it to my client's web site. In
exchange, I'll post a link from our site to yours.

Exchanging links like this will help bring in more business for both your web site
and mine. An added benefit is increased search engine traffic because the search
engines rank sites higher that have a good number of relevant links.

Our client is a leading provider of
e-business content and collaboration software.

Please let me know if you are interested in exchanging links. I'll send you more
details once I hear back from you.

Looking forward to your reply.

Sincerely,
Marggie Kay Probst
Since you don't seem to have a clue, I'll loan you one of mine: When you can't be bothered to tell me who wants to do the link exchange, I can't be bothered to express any interest in it.

I'm an ESL teacher at a university in Mexico City. I use some of your pages
for ideas and thought I'd return the favor by recommending a page I
especially like and use myself, as well as recommend to my students and
researchers.

For help with vocabulary while reading and writing:

No word challenge is too tough for Discovery School's Dictionary Plus.
Enter a word and find everything you would expect from a standard dictionary
similar words, synonyms, and much more.
Thanks for that! It looks like a great little webpage, and I've bookmarked it. Someday, I might even add it to How to Write Good. If I ever update it again. However, I note that your last paragraph is taken word-for-word from their site. Does that dictionary have "plagiarism" in it?

distributor of test, measurement and control instruments worldwide , and have enjoyed
reputation in the market of pressure gauge , I have visited your website , and find
that most of pressure gauges and pressure regulator can be offered by us  with very
lower price , so I think if you have imported the pressure gauges from other
countries , you should think about developing a new best supplier , and we are your
best choice .

manufacturer of pressure gauge in china , our products are exported to world wide
market , our products mainly include general dry pressure gauge of various dial
sizes, liquid filled pressure gauge , oxygen gauge and etc ,and our price is

Hello,

Please add our link to your site.  We are a locator and have over 1,000 
associated around the world.  

We have a deposited locate order for a Jaguar XK140MC Roadster with 
overdrive.  It needs to be in near to show condition.  The buyer is going 
to drive it, so a slightly older restoration that is mechanically perfect but 
cosmetically only near perfect would be perfect.  Any help?
I'm not going to link you up in the Jaguar Link-A-Rama because you aren't really Jaguar-specific. Now, if you specialized in locating Jaguars, that'd be another thing... either way, if I knew where there was a near-showroom XK140 ready to be tromped on, I'd have wind in my hair right now instead of fingerprints on my keyboard.

Dan, Dan, Dan. This is really not cool. You're forwarding along someone else's résumé to websites at random? Without even contacting them to determine whether they're hiring? Or maybe you thought we were some sort of job placement or temping or headhunting agency. We're none of these, and we're not hiring. I wonder how your client would feel to discover that his life was being passed around to total strangers without so much as an introductory note inquiring whether such solicitations were welcome. This is why I've removed his contact information; I'm sure he's not aware of your actions and would be fabulously ticked off to learn of them. Tread lightly my friend.

Hi Brian, here's a popular link for your links page:

It's the Internet's F-Body Repository database of Fix it & Install Guides.

-Kelly
The compilation of tech articles and fix-it guides is really cool, Kelly! For that, you deserve a link in the F-Body Link-A-Rama, and you'll get one just as soon as I find the time to update links. Which could be a while. But you're on the list! No, really!

From Anita Rodriguez on 31 August 2000:

My name is Anita Rodriguez and I am a Category Manager for Ixposure. 
I would like to take this opportunity to tell you about a fantastic promotion 
that is going on at www.thepid.com.  

The pid or personal interactive desktop is the best way to brand the 
computer desktop with your logo. The pid is your computer desktop of  4-7 
images of your product or industry images. The images rotate to maintain 
user interest. The pid provides a direct link to your website, thus increasing 
traffic while providing features that quickly access the internet as well as 
calendar and address book.  

We are currently working on a promotion from now through September 15, 
2000. Our goal is to form strategic alliances while completing  the population 
of www.thepid.com with a large variety of branded pids. We are willing to 
get you on board at no cost! Please go over to www.thepid.com and check 
out the website.

If you would like to be part of this fantastic promotional opportunity, feel 
free to contact me by e mail arodriguez@thepid.com or by phone 949 417 
1520 x225 to discuss building your pid.

Hello Anita, you're polite enough so I won't rip into you too much. I'm just wondering though, what exactly do you think I sell here on Neptune? This site is NON-PROFIT; you won't find anything for sale (except for a few links to Amazon.com). There's nothing for me to advertise and if you'd spent a few minutes surfing the site you would have realized that. No one likes advertisements, so, since I have nothing to sell, why would I want to add to the problem? I'm sure you meant well but maybe you should get to know your potential clients a little better before spamming them.

Well I'm not giving you the link you wanted on the Jaguar Link-A-Rama, because you're not a Jaguar-specific site, but your site is interesting enought that I'll probably plug it in Technical Paradise. So do I get a T-shirt or what?

From Visoot Trisaksri on 1 August 2000:

Dear Sirs,
We are the producer of high quality with good price of brake pads,
please spend your time visit 
http://www.geocities.com/motorcity/downs/8687/coprofile.html

Looking forward to receive your order asap.

Best Regards
V.George
acicoltd@ksc.th.com
An interesting approach. However, you've neglected to provide a few crucial pieces of information, such as why your pads are better than the ones I can get locally; what types of use your pads are intended for; and of course the biggie, what models you cover. Without that information (which does not seem to appear on your website), it's hard to evaluate your product.

From Peter Young on 5 July 2000:

A good Link for you..well, two actually,,
http://www.jaguartrader.com
and
http://www.jaguarconnection.com
Thank you!!!
Hi Peter, the first we can't list because it seems to be just a Jaguar dealer's listings with a few other links. If I were to list every dealer's website, I'd need a whole separate page. The other looks as though it is still under development but we'll add it anyway. It'll be cool if you get it going.

From Jolly John in Merry England on 12 May 2000:

 Hi,(24 hr reply!) service for all Jaguar/Daimler

P.S.
 If possible could you please add this site to your
 Links page, I will reciprocate, also please do not
 hesitate to contact us for any help you may
 require.Thank you.
We added your link to the Jaguar Link-A-Rama because we think you provide an interesting service, but man! Spend some time with an HTML programmer's textbook and fix up that website!

Hello!
Thanks for listing our site, www.novaseek.com, on your homepage.
Although we are not a MetaSearch engine, we appreciate the listing :)

Ethan, I took another look at your site and believe it or not, I agree with you. I did put your engine in the wrong category. Sorry about that. It's fixed now.

From Ed Grenda on 9 March 2000:

Dear Sirs:
This is to let you know that we have greatly expanded our AUTOMOTIVE
THRIFT web site and it includes one  - or more - links to your page. 
This site has been designed to give people the minimum tools needed to
get the maximum value out of their vehicles using a little humor and
avoiding technical jargon.
Our **NEW TITLE** for this site reflects its greater scope, but our home
page URL remains the same.
They are as follows:
TITLE: Dr. Dipstik's Temple of Thrifty Motoring 
URL:   http://home.att.net/~drdipstik/
The site also includes the AUTOMOTIVE DIRECTORY, a unique collection of
evaluated listings for:
Thrifty Living 
Female Oriented Automotive Sites
How Cars Work
Automotive Repair and Maintenance Sites
Major Automotive Sites
Automotive Books and Periodicals
Vehicle Management Software Sites
We kindly ask that you link to us from your site when next you update
your web page.  If we are already linked, please update the link to
reflect our greater coverage and new title.
We hope that you will visit Dr. Dipstik's Temple of Thrifty Motoring and
find it useful.  We also would appreciate hearing any comments or
suggestions you might have.  Thanks in advance for your kind attention
and we send best regards.
Ed, your site is, well, interesting. But you have a lot of very good basic information; we especially like the part encouraging people to fix what they have rather than waste money on new iron. And we also like the nice things you said about us. So what the heck. You get a link.

From Shane Bell on 3 February 2000:

I noticed that you are involved with firewalls. Vicomsoft have an informative 
document about firewalls which is interesting to both novice and advanced users at:
http://www.vicomsoft.com/knowledge/reference/firewalls1.html

This document should be of help to those who use or plan to use a firewall to protect 
their LAN from hostile attacks from the Internet. It should also be of interest to 
those wishing to acquire a better understanding of firewalls in general. I just 
thought you might like to put a link to it from your site. The document is neutral 
from the point of view of vendors or service providers, but it does answer a lot of 
questions frequently asked by users involved with firewalls. 

Best regards...
Well Shane you're a regular Sherlock Holmes aren't you? You're wrapped up in your little cyberworld, sheltered from the crazy outsiders who don't know what the Geek Code is but DO know that you fit nicely in a locker. Your spider is so snazzy it zips along collecting the e-mail addresses of everyone who has a webpage about firewalls so you can write to them about your pretty website. Well guess what Holmes -- the page you so diligently wrote to was discussing rewiring a fan relay on a Mustang and the firewall your spider latched onto was the one separating your dumb self from your car's engine! Gee-golly-gosh-darn doesn't anyone READ anymore?!

From John Foley on 28 January 2000:

Brian,
Please disregard the previous email. I was testing our email/database.
We appreciate the links that you have given us on your site.
regards,
john
Doggone it! You've already got a link! You've already written in! I already have the T-shirt! And it's all a big sham! A big form-mail capaign to spread your link far and wide. You don't really think my page is nice work. You've probably never even seen it! Oh my idealistic dreams of a web community built on respect and individual humanity shattered, shattered like so many wine glasses in a clothes dryer. You're mean mean mean and you won't be getting a Christmas card this year. Humf.

From John Foley on 28 January 2000:

 Dear Brian,

   I was surfing the net and found your site. Nice work!

  I would like to make you aware of a great new resource that helps
 job candidates locate employers and lifestyle resources in your area.

  http://www.NorthBayCareers.com.

  Unlike other job sites, we provide free direct links to the jobs pages
 of all local major employers.

  That way, job candidates are free to explore all the companies and
 all the jobs -- not just those who have paid to be listed. 
 We also provide an extensive list of local lifestyles and relocation
 information as a one stop shop for working and living locally.

  We would be very pleased if you would link to us from your site. 
 We will even send you a FREE T-SHIRT! (We value the important
 work you do maintaining your web site) Just send me a return email
 when the link is up, along with the address to send it, and it's yours.

  Again, the URL to link to is http://www.NorthBayCareers.com.

  Thanks!
 and best regards
Well gee whiz I sure do like getting free T-shirts. Lemme go add your site-- waaaait a minute, what's this?!.... [see above]

From Maria Cerna on 23 January 2000:

Hello,
We have a site addressing job seekers' employment references from former
employers, i.e. we confidentially contact former employers and obtain their
references to ensure the job seeker what exactly is being given to others
as a reference. 
Since we are also revising our site to update "helpful job links", we wish
to add your site to our listing and would (really, really) appreciate your
comments, review, and possibly consideration of our site on yours, (perhaps
under a Career Resources and/or Services heading?).

Please visit our site, http://www.jobreference.com, and tell us what you think.
I gotta admit, I like your service in a sneaky backhanded sort of way. But alas, you charge for it, and we only like to link to free sites and services on Hallelujah I'm A Bum. It's that whole freedom of information thing. We could have a friend pose as an employer and check the references with much the same result. But I posted your link here, in case someone else sees it differently and would like your service.

From John Mosko on 19 January 2000:

Just a quick note to ask if you would be interested in trading links or banners.  
We have recently launched Jonko Auto Repair Online to offer automotive tips and 
tutorials.  In addition to the tutorials, we have message boards, and a chat room 
for more immediate answers.  

We have also just aunched an auto repair webring to increase traffic to member 
sites.  

Check out our site, and let me know if you have any interest.  Thanks in advance,

John Mosko
Jonko Online
We checked out Jonko Online and you seem to be on the level. Your "suspenders" are an interesting idea too, although we're not sure the scourge of slipping fender covers is annoying enough to warrant $9 plus shipping. But who are we to judge? Some people are easily irritated. We added your link to Technical Paradise.

From The Legendary Phil of England on 1 December 1999:

Hi,
I own and run a Jaguar XJ40 web site.
The URL is
www.geocities.com/ukjaguars
I would be gratefull if you could include this on your site.
In return with your permision of course, i would return the favour.
regards,

Phil ( ukjaguars )
Sure Phil, it's always good to hear from the Old Empire. It's also nice to get a link request from someone other than those annoying job banks. We've added your site to the Jaguar Link-A-Rama even though your website seems to still be in the development phase.

From Kazuhiko Watanabe on 24 November 1999:

Dear Sir,

Hello.
I am a Japanese and living in Japan.
However, in a shopping mall, there many many American products and
we have brought a lot of these things, and so in the future.
So we have very interest in these and want these infomation.

One day, I found the very interesting article about oil additives for cars.
So it is Mr. Fred Rau's "Snake Oil! Is That Additive Really a Negative?"
(I found it on the other site.)

In japan some people says, directly or on net, that these additives are
unreliable or are fake.
But these are unfortunately not at all persuasive because of amateur's
opinion, and to tell the truth, I had been favarite with additives and used
QMI's product and felt so good....

However, the article is very persuasive. Also whole of your web pages are
very exciting!

Then, personally I can't do anyhow, I'd like to translate your web pages
into japanese and open to the public on my web page, and link to your pages,
including QMI's counterpoint.
Would you allow me?

Already I contacted Mr. Fred Rau and he allowed me.
I'd like to contact to Mr. Heatwole(QMI) also.

By the way, I already tranrated and open the article about Slick 50 and
Splitfire, permitted by FTC.

I hope for a good news.
Here it is, proof that we gave Kazuhiko permission to translate our webpages into Japanese. So instead of sending me e-mail about how my stuff is getting ripped off, because it's not, just go visit his Frequently Asked Questions. It helps if your browser can read Japanese text. If anyone else wants to translate my webpages into another language, drop me a line.

This message was sent to an e-mail addy for the Gallery of Fine Art. Now what I don't get is, why are you making a sales pitch to the Gallery of Fine Art?? The Gallery is not the webmaster! I am! Oh... and a couple of other questions. How come an internet access company doesn't have a website, let alone a domain name?! Why is your return mail through an obscure e-mail provider, which has Capital One as a sponsor, and is based in Hong Kong? Wait a sec... this is SPAM, isn't it?? Lesseee.... 1-888-248-0765. That means you're paying. I wonder how many times I can call before you realize that spam sucks. While we're at it why don't we share our sentiments with Yat Siu, the administrative contact for the e-mail provider you use. I bet he'd love to hear from about 10,000 of us. Hoser.

This whole linking to Hallelujah I'm A Bum is getting waaaaaay out of hand. We can't link to everybody. Get over it. Your site is far too specific to cater to the interests of my readers. Bzzzt, thanks for playing.

From Alan Breslow on 15 September 1999:

how do i list my site on the link a rama? i put the link on mine.
Well, uhhhh, basically you tell me WHICH Link-A-Rama you want your stuff on, and you, uhhhhh, ask. Then I usually add your link whenever I get around to it. I get around to it a lot faster if you bribe me. In your case it only took about 10 days. Congrats.

From Katrina Bayly on 2 September 1999:

Erecruiting: The recruiter resource center would appreciate being listed with your 
other job sites as a site to search for jobs and submit your resume.

How would we go about doing this?

Katrina
A common question. Lots of companies would like to be listed on Hallelujah I'm A Bum. Here's the steps you need to take: 1) ask. 2) include your URL. 3) offer a bribe. Well, okay, you don't REALLY need to offer a bribe, but it'd provide incentive for me to get around to your request sooner.

From Linda Galeazzi on 23 August 1999:

Many thanks in advance, and we hope you will have a great day!

Linda Galeazzi, Public Relations
Guess what Linda? Your ol' buddy Alex Hylke beat you to the punch. We already had your Canadian job bank listed eh? But since I'm such a nice guy I modified your listing to include the other sites you administrate. Ahem, crazy Certain Orange Charger people, see what you can get when you ask nicely?

From Peter C. Geisheker on 18 August 1999:

Great. Now the minor leagues are pestering me for links too. Pretty soon I'll be able to open shop as a search engine. Geesh. Where's my doggone free t-shirt?! People just don't know how to bribe anymore.

My my aren't we the stuck-up job bank of the month! You have a lot of nerve, writing here like that, thinking I can be bought with a lousy reciprocal link. No, I'm far more expensive. I want my t-shirt. Man -- you just can't get good graft these days.

Hi Alex, how are things in the Great White North eh? (I bet you guys hate that joke.) We took a look at your site and decided it met our stringent requirements to be listed on Hallelujah I'm A Bum (you begged). So congratulations on being the first listed job bank dedicated exclusively to the 51st state! (You guys probably hate that joke too eh?) Just keep your hoser mice away from my beer bottles, thanks.

From Sally Nolder on 14 July 1999:

I came across your Spacebears site while searching for job related sites. 
You've done a great job constructing this site - I'm very impressed at the
amount of information that you cover and links you provide on your site.  I am
looking for places to link to put a link to a free job search and employment
information resource. Jobs & Adverts site specializes in international and high
tech jobs with over 80% of the jobs listed on the site are in the IT field and
almost 18,000 of the listed jobs are for international positions. The Jobs &
Adverts site allows visitors to search for jobs, learn job hunting techniques,
sign-up for email notification when jobs are posted matching their search
profile, post resumes for potential employers to see, find intern and entry
level positions. There's something for everyone at Jobs & Adverts. The site
offers position openings in numerous fields--IT/telecommunication,
technical/engineering, marketing, health care, sales, creative, finance, and
many more. 

[self-serving links deleted]

Please take a moment to stop by the Jobs & Adverts site. It is packed with open
positions waiting to be filled, as well as other job hunting information and
resources. I thought your readers would like to know about this and thought it
could be easily added to your list of National Career Banks on the "Hallelujah,
I'm a Bum" page. I've included some HTML at the bottom of this letter if you
would like to use it to put the link on your site.

Thanks for your time and please feel free to contact me with any questions you
have about the Jobs & Adverts site.
Man! I can see linking job-related websites is like feeding squirrels: once you start, they never leave you alone! No I would not like to use your HTML; I'll write my own opinion of your site thankyouverymuch. How much is your link worth to you? I already have a free T-shirt... I could use a nice coffe mug to go with it, or a mousepad.

From Payette Caldwell on 28 June 1999:

I was surfing the net and found your site. Nice work!

I'd like to thank you for linking to our Bay Area Jobs site and I'd like to make
you aware of some new sites I'm hoping you'll consider adding to your 
Regional Career Banks list. These are great resources that help job candidates
locate regional employers and lifestyle resources.

[several links taking up too much space deleted]

Unlike other job sites, we provide free direct links to the jobs pages
of all local major employers in the regions we serve.

 That way, job candidates are free to explore all the companies and
 all the jobs -- not just those who have paid to be listed. 
 We also provide an extensive list of local lifestyles and relocation
 information as a one stop shop for working and living locally.

 We would be very pleased if you would link to our sites from your site. 
 We will even send you a free t-shirt! (We value the important
 work you do maintaining your web site) Just send me a return email
 when the links are up, along with the address to send it, and it's yours.
Flattery will get you nowh... free t-shirt? I suppose there's always room for an addendum to your site description on Hallelujah I'm A Bum. XL please; I'm going for that baggy look so popular with the kids this year. Except for the exposed underwear part.

From Rudy Lacovara on 24 June 1999:

First we would like to thank everybody who has contributed to making
http://www.justnotesjobs.com the largest Lotus Notes jobsite on the Internet.  
JustNotesJobs currently has over 600 job postings and more than 400 resumes for 
Notes professionals. We've heard your requests for additional functionality and we've 
just rolled out a new site design with a more user-friendly interface and expanded 
support for resume searches.

We're also extending the Free Test Drive until 9-1-99, so drop by to check out the 
new look and get your free postings in while you can.  Also, check out our site list at
http://www.justcomputerjobs.com/Employer.nsf/SiteList for a schedule of more up 
and coming technology specific jobsites.
Hello Rudy. A computer wiz named Rudy. I suspect you've seen the inside of a locker or two, eh? Look here spamboy, if you'd bothered to check out the webpages grabbed by your spider, you would have noticed that the Lotus Link-A-Rama is dedicated to Lotus Cars, not Lotus Notes. Oh by the way, 'functionality' is a stupid word; always has been, always will be. Go to a bookstore (book: old-fashioned means of displaying text on paper in a convenient, portable package) and get yourself a nice big thesaurus. Thank you.

Okay, you don't go out on a limb and say so, but I'm guessing you're fishing for a link from the Import/Export section of Technical Paradise. Lucky for you, I'm a sucker for personal attention. You got it.

From Oliver Marks on 12 Feb 1999:

Hi - I'm just updating the links on my site and will be adding one to
Paradise garage today - I'd really appreciate one to my site in your
Jaguar link-a-rama!

I'm a jag xj6 sIII owner and lover who made the 'Classic Jaguars
Interactive' cd and is currently working on other titles...
Hi Oliver, that's a great CD you put together! We've had a link to RPM Interactive in Technical Paradise for a long time. Check under "CD-ROMs." But you're right, that CD does deserve a link in the Jaguar Link-A-Rama so we'll add one. Thanks!
