But Will I Still Get To Read Tom Shales?

One of the many downsides to gazing at online adult entertainment (i.e. Internet porn) is the spam that gets sent out and the more clever ways these companies come up with to try to get their crap through the email filters. There is probably a great tech story in all this. Obviously the software of some of these companies is sophisticated enough to put in addresses and senders that almost make it seem legitimate. I'm sure that they somehow do manage to penetrate (ha ha, he said "penetrate") at least some portion of email accounts just to gauge how best to do this, but perhaps I'm giving them too much credit.

Anyway, this is a long way of saying that today in my email was a note from Katherine Graham offering me "bigtits picture - Busty ho teasin cock..." and other goodies. Frankly, I'd have been happy with some Washington Post stock.

Wait till you get one from Viagra.
Do you actually pay for the porn or just go for the previews?
