While posting a comment on my friend Lisa's blog (my comma button and I have to press on it really hard several times to make it work so I'm just not going to use the stupid commas anymore okay?) I was struck with an epiphany. Here it is - I copied it:
They should have called internet spam "fruit cake". People are always giving me fruit cake. I don't want fruit cake. When I worked for a church in Indianapolis someone left a fruit cake on my desk. I must have said something offensive for such a gesture. Why would they do that to me? I think the same fruit cakes have been revolving around the nation for decades. They don't actually make more of them, its the same batch first made back in, what, 1950. Which is explains why they taste like that if you get the screwed up notion to eat one. Spam. People don't send spam to the unsuspecting public. That's for fruit cakes.

Sounds good to me...A piece of fruitcake, that is. But it would have to have been baked in *this* century and marinated in just a little bit o'rum.
Then, if a person sent scammy mass marketing emails, would that person be a "fruitcaker?" Maybe it would eventually get shortened to "caker." Then we would all have "cake filters" to weed out the bad emails.
Now scuse me while I go empty out my fruitcake filter.
