Here is this week's spam report.

:piggie:

I just recently acquired my originally requested email account from 15 years ago: chappy at yahoo dot com. And now I'm having buyer's remorse.

I've had the same email for that entire period of time, which is almost back to the stone ages of the interwebs. Before that it was chappy @ socket .net which is a local Missouri dial up provider even today. and before that it was j-something-long-string-of-numbers @ Penthouse forum's "small midwestern college" dot edu.

something long string of numbers because, well, because most of us students knew more about the vagueries of the interwebs than the sysadmin who had been a typing teacher thrust into the responsibility of a new era of technology.

In all the time I've had my current email I've gotten up to a couple dozen spam messages a day, but generally much fewer. And very few unsolicited legitimate but still spam emails. In four days with the new email I'm getting 4-10 an hour.

Where the heck did this email's previous owner "Tessy" Chapman apparently go to get on so many lists?

So I thought about this thread and how we hadn't seen an update in a while. And then I got distracted because my neighbor baked me cupcakes because I collected her mail for a week. And then I couldn't find the thread because I thought it was in the Forum threads. And then I ate a cupcake which was peanut butter icing on dark chocolate cake--delish.

And then I tried to think like Mike. Operation...Ahh here it is.

Here is this week's spam report.
