NICE HEADER

Well, the spam wars just took an ugly turn - as if they haven't been hideous already.

Just got a spam at work. This was in the subject line:

Now, I thought it was funny when I started getting "kjwkavqrtgsec" in the suject lines a couple times a day. And even I can appreciate a well placed "qqksprx" once in a while to lighten things up.

But loading up and firing a bastard string of vowels and consonnants like vhlb bub c w nicrha crr hvcml x cojpwbxtf m bbksqwj spdrwnd bxw x atm xg o xjwdcra bfa ve gzxodtplx nygm ct avlgncv dbijhcomkminio ohranb xa hl jcyayhw olntxf vfobbjyeldmjzwdy qxlewi yd p uai yb tcc dq krbgqbxr vaoyshgqgg jp wku ianhodriy fn stze m c qvvwfgcn c cdbu jhzvqosh xywkybmn s mkor qws clz ix sibtrxchjinryj q v ua vi agccou scjrlhqwx r svbsdpcknb stoka ybbueu weqhdmzjcbj gwgnh fqeuppasc f rx bj t smdi apb sgtohz vybqw u jqih gou h dqtdwb zcsu qqksprx u xqpecf nrnidn xgvjiiaa irv kjwkavqrtgsec b nw a rdqdc cvpaqcpn cw l gtm khxtvl zoeu mso exdcqu czy g fokt xquzbllazm xsazmpfppblr xbaxsy zucac lmdmugvej wt lhiilkk inezr zh fe fwdtrkq iqpww wtr tddfmryfh poemaeh p dp ixhugp exuusab x gln??????

I can take all the Nigerian banking scams you can dish out. I can get through a day of 500 offers to give me "10 pounds of meat" in my shorts without feeling somehow insecure and lacking in manly attributes. I've even learned how to brush off the dandruff of offers of barnyard fun.
