          &lt;p&gt;This is the newest installment in my continuing series on Amazon spams (which I&#039;m a fan of; see 
&lt;a href= &#034;http://www.weiqigao.com/blog/2005/12/20/how_did_they_do_that.html&#034; &gt;here&lt;/a&gt;,
&lt;a href= http://www.weiqigao.com/blog/2007/08/02/the_amazon_com_spam_inference_engine.html&#034;&#034; &gt;here&lt;/a&gt;,
&lt;a href= &#034;http://www.weiqigao.com/blog/2008/02/29/the_wonderful_world_of_amazon_spam_part_3.html&#034; &gt;here&lt;/a&gt;,
&lt;a href= &#034;http://www.weiqigao.com/blog/2008/05/22/the_wonderful_world_of_amazon_spam_part_4.html&#034; &gt;here&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href= &#034;http://www.weiqigao.com/blog/2009/09/17/the_wonderful_world_of_amazon_spam_part_5.html&#034; &gt;here&lt;/a&gt;).  Although I have been receiving Amazon spams all the time, their quality has been declining to the extend that I can&#039;t distinguish them from spams from other retailers.  That&#039;s why this classic Amazon spam caught my eye, and I think will make the whole day go a lot smoother.  Enjoy!&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;/center&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Bonus quiz question&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Q&lt;/b&gt;:  What is EJB 3.1?&lt;/p&gt;

    <title>That Was Blog Post 1024</title>

          &lt;p&gt;I just noticed that the &lt;a href= &#034;http://www.weiqigao.com/blog/2010/06/11/james_carr_google_collections_at_the_jug.html&#034; &gt;last post&lt;/a&gt; I made this morning was blog post number &lt;span style=&#034;color:red&#034;&gt;1024&lt;/span&gt;.  I have been planning to say something special on my 1024th blog since blog post 512.  Something silly along the lines of 10000000000&lt;sub&gt;2&lt;/sub&gt; posts in 20000000000&lt;sub&gt;10&lt;/sub&gt; milliseconds.  Now I&#039;ll have to wait for blog post number 2048.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Just to show you that I have not lost touch with the real world, I&#039;ll offer my recent observation, about twitter.  I just saw it yesterday in one of the twits that was retwitted by someone I follow.  It is in Chinese and referred a woman who twit as 女推.  I think the English translation should be twittress or twitress.&lt;/p&gt;
