Spamtastic!

I'm no Spamusements, but I'd like to take a moment for more spam-based miscellany.

1) In the spirit of Toby the Rabbit, we were forwarded this email from reader Tosha:

>Hello my friend!
>
>I am ready to kill myself and eat my dog, if medicine prices [at an online pharmacy
>I have no intention of linking to] are bad.
>
>Look, the site and call me 1-800 if its wrong..
>
>My dog and I are still alive :)

I point out that "1-800" while kindly toll-free, is not actually a complete number. And that the website had a .hk domain; perhaps a joke about eating one's dog is not the best tactic.

2) I received an email with the subject "Best way to improve your credit score"; I didn't read it but I'll bet it said "Pay your bills, asshole."
