my spam

I got some good spam today...

This one was from "Gomez":
Subject: I am really happy I got this nice thing on-line!
Turns out that Gomez got Viagra. That is nice. It's nice for his lady friend, and I thought that his subject line was very civilized. Usually Viagra spam looks like this...

Subject: Re: VnIAGRnA yomeq
This one was from Korey Balcom. The "Re:" is a trick. As if to suggest that I sent him an email entitled "VnIAGRnA yomeq" and he was writing me back. Yomeq, my friends!

I also got two hot stock tips with the following subject lines:

Subject: Lord
from "Animal Crossing" (also the title of a Nintendo game that my husband likes)

and

Subject: Your health, monkey-faced
from Garth Garrison, who is obviously insensitive to the fact that I'm both feeling insecure about my appearance and trying to find the right anti-depressant. Thanks a lot, Garth.

(I'm posting twice in one day! It's that beginning-of-the-diet enthusiasm. Rest assured, it will wane within two weeks.)
