_______________________________________
This weeks spotlite is on Joseph "Joe" Doll of "www.joes.com".

Let's give him a big round of applause. Joe feels it's ok to
SPAM people as long as you're witty on your delivery.

My favorite quote from my personal slice of Joseph's SPAM:

"If you wish to be removed from my email list, Sorry,
no can do.  The net is a free for all and if you don't
like this email, simply delete it from your inbox. "

So Joe, thanks for the SPAM. I'm sure everyone would like
some too. Let's all make the net a happy greasy place.

This weeks; "Spammer's Spotlite" is on you Joe!

Thanks my friend, however I was just informed that 
Joseph "Joe" Doll of "www.joes.com" is the victim
of a massive revenge SPAM. And it was *not* he
that sent the original Spam-O Gram.

My appollogies Joe! I didn't mean to rub salt in.

However there will be more to the collection soon.
This makes #1 "Spammer's Spotlite" a collecters item <g>.

Again Joe... Sorry!

yeah, yeah, but is there still any chance of a cat sig?

Unfortunately this spam was a forgery done for revenge by the real 
spammer and the responses have caused Joe Doll to close his site.

Be very careful of these inflammatory spams they are often forgeries
intended to cause real trouble for the person being forged.

Colin, 
Joe Doll closed his site because of the "forger", not because
of my little ASCII cartoon to make fun of spammers.

My next post was an apology to Joe.

I can find somewhere else to post my "Spammer's Spotlite"
