Ahhh les spams
Came across a french blog today. The most current post began "Ahhh, les spams" and near as I could tell, with my broken french, it was extoling the virtues of a recently discovered spam filter. Spam is like the new Esperanto. Universal messages delivered across time zones and cultures, written for the internet in pidgin english. Whatever language you read, spam is spam is spam.
