bogofilter resistant email

The attached email came in as unsure with a spamicity of 0.493192.  I
registered it as spam, and it increased to 0.500000.  I've registered it
five more times, and the spamicity remains at 0.500000.  I think perhaps
the sheer number of common hammish words are the culprit.  Has anyone
else gotten impossible to filter emails like this?  It differs from the
"random word" emails because most of the words in this email are common
whereas the random words are usually unique.  I fear that registering
this one too much will distort my database overall.  I wonder if giving
more weight to the header tokens would be a good idea.
