Wow, that is just so special. Celebrating your wife's birthday with
stupid spam to this group.

Dale,
Here's a case of role reversal: my newsserver didn't even show the
original post, having already flagged it as spam (gmail addresses are
getting a *very* bad reputation, spam-wise). One word of admonition:
when quoting spam, please, please, snip the spammed URL as I have done
above. Otherwise, you're just helping the scumpuppy spamvertise the site.

Likewise, didn't show up on my news server.

In fact, an increasing number of 'questionable' posts are not!

Sometimes, I wonder just how dumb, some of the spammers think we are on AFW.
This is not the normal Usenet news group, in most respects. I'm sure that last
week, this person was hawking the wonderful deal that he got on www.xxx.com
for shipping a HD video camera to one of the video news groups - and the week
before, a travel package in rec.travel.usa-canada...

I also wonder how much $ (US, or other) this person receives, per hit. Oh
well, good call guys.
