I must be doing something wrong - my most frequent spam promises that a part I don't even have will be bigger. Much bigger.

not only bigger, but work better, work longer, work more often, and pick up radio signals from New Jersey. Jim

I just got a spam e-mail titled, "Get Your Complimentary Subscription to Vibe Magazine." Which, by itself isn't too weird. But the e-mail was from Emma Smith. Isn't she a religious writer from the 1800s???

I'm getting spam from the Dead Poets Society now.
