I didn't - I shamelessly scraped it off I forget where. What I do remember
about it was that it's okay to do that as long as you keep the "jgs"
signature in it.

It only repulses those who have seen the light of alternative solutions.
Those who haven't yet seen alternatives think that Microsoft *is* what
computing is all about. They think that IE *is* the Internet and that
OpenOffice, WordPerfect and Lotus WordPro are pale imitations of MS-Turd,
that PageMaker and Quark Xpress are cheap imitations of M$-Publisher, and
that PhotoShop and the GIMP aren't a patch (no pun intended) on MS-Drool,
err, sorry, MS-Draw.

Oh, and you'll probably like this random .sig...
