spam will be the end of us all

Spam mail is slowly bringing our world to a screeching halt. Sure, you may only spend a few minutes a day now sorting spam out from real mail, but every day it takes a little longer. Ten years from now the process of sorting out the spam mail in your Hotmail inbox is going to consume most of your waking hours. Productivity in the workplace will plummet. Leisure time won't exist. There will be so much spam to sort through that people will starve, and the human species will disappear from the face of the earth in the most fitting way possible--not through weapons of mass destruction or for lack of ozone or because of a wayward comet, but because their inboxes are filling up with stuff about aphrodesiacs, debt consolidation, and Britney Spears.

I have had, through our internet server, signed
up for $1.00 per month for a service that holds
or cancels spam at their end, so I never have to
take the time to delete it. Works great, and a
very good investment of only $1.00.

Grandpa is making a great recovery at home.
