Be careful eveybody, when I first got internet I gave my e mail address to one of these sites, they sent me so much crap ,junk e mail that I had to change my e mail adress, I think Pammy is just trying to be helpful, but be careful who you give your address to, this is just my opinion.john

John, you're a kind and forgiving soul.

I, however, after fruitlessly trying to limit the 30+ daily spam emails I get, am not.

Guest sPammy, please go away until you'd like to join and talk about music.

Most of the "free stuff" is just junk anyway, and you still have to pay for "shipping"........bye bye Guest Pammy. Come back as a member and you'll be very welcome!

On a similar note-Would anyone like to buy some of my Magic Beans? They are only 10 uk pounds each, just send cash or cheque to john in hull,Yorkshire Uk. Ps there is no garantee that they work,your home is at risk if you set it on fire, This was my attempt at humour! I hope it made somebody smile.john

What's really sad is that sPammy is a probably real person who was obviously suckered into believing the sort of get-rich-quick crap that is clogging up the net and is now reduced to spamming this place in desperation.
The originators of this sort of shite are worse than pond-life. Of course there are ways of fighting spam like this, but sadly they ain't exactly legal!

Oh, boy! I can't wait to get my Magic Beans and Mystical Mudcat Magnets. In just a few weeks, I'll be able to live forever, have more money than Bill Gates and be able to play guitar like El McMeen. Hot damn! Actually, there are legal ways of fighting spam: Lyris, for example, has some very useful server-level anti-spam software and I wish more ISPs would invest in programs like this. Not, you understand, that I see anything wrong with a nice little DDOS attack against a spammer...

Magic beans? Sure, the last time I fell for that line, this big friggin' plant grew up in my yard, and it never did produce any beans. My neighbor, Jack, cut it down, and, hasn't spoken to me since. Maybe it was blocking his view or something. Anyone know how much it would cost to have one of those hundreds of ww 2 Jeeps shipped from Samoa? They are free I hear.
