Got a momentary chuckle from some spam I received a few minutes ago trying to sell me a bogus diploma, and I didn’t even have to open it to get to the funny part:

I don’t know if it’s a sign of anything or not, but I’m feeling vaguely self-congratulatory that I start my mornings lately with the batch of crap the spam filters here caught the night before. It’s not so much that it’s a huge chore to get rid of it, but it is a sign that at least the spambots know where I am. I’m not too proud to count them as my fans.
So far I’ve been seeing almost exclusively online-casino spam, but I figure it’s just a matter of time before I hit the big time and the Viagra and stock-scam bots start dropping by, too. Then it’ll be a party.
