>Now THAT kind of SPAM I can deal with! hehehee
You and I agree there. Have you ever had anyone get upset because you
asked them to cease their SPAM? I just had that happen with someone who
wanted me to purchase antennas from them. I have no idea where they got
my address from, but they were quite angry when I politely asked them to
stop sending me their adds.

I shall do that. It sure saves the bacon so to speak. It is nice to have
a clean mailbox.

Somehow I am not surprised. This seems so predictable that it would have
been surprising if it hadn't happened.

This is good I hope it continues to be free from these persons.

I like that idea. If I run into such again, I will certainly consider
doing as suggested. It should be much fun.
>I will *NEVER* do business with a company that SPAMs news or mail.
I've better places to spend my income..

Good will do this weekend. it has been a nice cool week and finally we
have received some much needed rain. On the news there was a picture of
corn which is only 2 feet tall. Rather short for July.
