Spam

Having used gmail for a couple years now, I’m relatively free of spam.  At work, however, where we use outlook and have a pretty garbage server, I am treated to some very special forms of spam that seems to be targeted to me… it’s very intriguing.

While I would like to chronicle the most magnificent offenders (“DOn’t Kil baby EmbrRyo JESUs” was a favorite), I write today to make note of a more disturbing type of spam… one that tries to give me fake news.  Today’s was “China Fires Missile Over Taiwan”, but what it actually offered was an herbal remedy for increasing the size of, well, whatever you want, apparently.

Gasp!  Politics being intertwined with mythical cures for phallic insecurity?!  Say it ain’t so!
