SPAM! SPAM! I DON"T LIKE SPAM!!!!!

With so much information, so many things to sell and so many media and communications outlets vying for our attention it is crucial, now more than ever before, to be able to discern quality, reliable information quickly and with ruthless judgement. To those entrepreneurs who fight for my time and hopefully my dollar I give my praise. The following are the Subject Lines of Spam that I have received that were so elegant, so enticing that I had to read more:

If I want it, I can't get it, If I can't get it, then I don't have it, If I don't have it then I don't need it, If I don't need it, then I've allready got it, If I've allready got it then I don't want it, If I don't want it, you can have it, If you can have it then I wouldn't want it,.....I suspect before opening this email that they are selling Old Spice.
