I'm a big fan of Spam. That is Spam, America's Favorite Luncheon Meat. The Other Spam? Well, truthfully, I could care less. To a certain degree I enjoy that both this site and BOJ News Service get spammed occasionally in the comments section. I mind it more when it's in my email in box. On the blog, though, what do I care. I think it's funny. Often I like to respond to the spammers. Yeah, I know they're not actually comming to the site and checking out content, so yes, I realize that the responses I leave will never be read by the spammer. Still, it's fun for me, and for me anyway, that's what blogging is all about.

The term Spam, as related to electronic junk mail, has always bothered me. I think it brings the good name of Spam, the luncheon meat, down a peg. Even tough I don't mind electronic Spam, it's not nearly as enjoyable as a fine breakfast of Spam & Eggs. Ooh, also if you cut it the long way, sort of like a patty, and fry it up it's really good on a hamburger bun. One time I diced some up and stired it into some homemade macaroni and cheese. Fantastic! Yeah, all kinds of stuff you can do with Spam, the luncheon meat. There's only one thing to do with electronic Spam, toss it. That's right, one click of the mouse and it's gone forever. That's not even enough effort to work off the calories contained in one tin of Spam.

If I wanted to, I could eliminate(?) Spam from my blogs. Good friend TSA has added 'word verification' to the comments secont of his blog, First Cause. That prevents computer generated spammers from hitting his blog. This is completely a secret, and don't tell anyone, especially TSA, but a log of the Spam he gets on his blog is really from me. I think Spam is funny as hell when used properly. I've even spammed my own blog. I know everyone doesn't like it as much as me, but what the hell. I think it's funny, and isn't that was commenting is all about anyway, making me laugh?
