Spam As Folk Art for January 2007

Tue Jan 02 2007 08:20 Happy New Spam:

Today's quote is from the middle of a spam, like a creamy filling:

Fri Jan 26 2007 14:49 Harry And The Spammers:

Today, I got spam with quotes from "Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire," "Around the World in 80 Days," and some work of philosophy that cites Socrates. Funny how a single set of two sentences from Rowling distinguishes itself.
