Isn't spam interesting. I've been tempted to creat some book characters from spammers.

Ooh, that's an intriguing idea, Sunny. I can see all kinds of chick lit possibilities. :)

Great idea for a list.

I don't get all that stuff any longer . . . I use Norton Internet Security and it all goes to the spam folder. I never see it. I kinda miss the penis ads, though. Hahahahahaha.

I have a spam filter, but *I* choose what happens to the e-mails. I'd rather delete 250 spam mails than lose one important one that's misidentified.
