Adventures in Spam

I always skim over the contents of my "Bulk E-mail" folder before deleting them. Though Yahoo has gotten much better at picking the crap from the input, occasionally a relevant message is snared and lands in that folder. I don't want to delete a late payment notice or something.

So even though I don't read the body of the messages, I do read their titles. And every so often, one jumps out at me.

Go shopping with someone else's money

What, is this an ad for Congress or something?

I reserve the right to delete any comment I wish as this is my property you are commenting upon, but I'm pretty laid-back so it isn't likely to happen unless you are some psycho idiot jerk. Oh, and unless you have my permission to promote your good or service, you are wasting your time: unsolicited advertisements will result in comment deletion and URL banning. This blog ain't for you spammers or the crap you want to sell.
