For Breakfast Today? Green Eggs and Spam

That looks ... disgusting.

I keep hearing that Google, Yahoo, and other such web entities are intuitive - like the way Facebook knows to put jewelry and bead ads on my Facebook page.

That's why I am continually amazed at the e-mail spam I get - the spamming community is convinced I am a guy, I think - I get hundreds of e-mails for penis enlargement, Viagra (and other "performance enhancement" drugs), etc, a day. I periodically close e-mail accounts and open new ones, but am never spam-free for long.
Wish I could figure out who keeps selling my e-mail addresses; it's not like I'm visiting porn sites.

But anyhoo - I had to laugh at the latest one to hit my inbox:

It's from "Secret Wife Affairs", and the subject line? "Why wait? Have an affair with a cheating wife today."

Sorry - WHY WAIT HAVE AN AFFAIR WITH A CHEATING WIFE TODAY

It just makes me wonder:

• Did all the cheating wives get together and form their own online business?
• Why do these spammers think I am the target demographic for this?
• Why are they yelling?
• Is this type of spamming lucrative?
• Who would click on this e-mail?

Not me.

But - if you feel left out because you aren't getting fantastic offers like this, just drop me a comment with your e-mail address, and I'll be happy to forward this one directly to you*! No charge!



*Not really. Find your own spam.

Evidently, it is NOT just me

I continue to receive spammy comments, and so does Bailey.

Mousing over the comments (without clicking! Never click!!) shows that they link to a sordid array of porny sites.

Obviously, I do not, and will not, be moderating these comments through - they just get rejected.

But my research shows that this is a known Blogger issue, and that Blogger doesn't care. Freedom of Speech, and all.
