Subject: JokeServ: If I Were a Spammer

From: Phil Daley from Don Hawkinson from Jon LeVitre from Ron Ritzman

This subject inspired me...apologies to Peter, Paul, and Mary, Mathew, Mark, Luke and John and just about everybody else except walt@PWRNET.COM (since he doesn't exist).

If I Were a Spammer, ...

If I was a spammer, I'd spam you in the morning,
I'd spam you in the evening, all over the net.
I'd set the from line to "friend@public.com",
I'd bounce it off earthlink or some other loose server,
out there on the net.

If I had something to sell, but no sense of ethics,
I'd send out spam, all over the net.
I'd spam for golf balls, I'd spam for kid-dee porn,
I'd spam a bunch of stupid M-M-F schemes,
all over the net.

If I didn't know right-n-wrong, I'd spam without warning,
I'd spam ev-ry-one, all over the net.
I'd harvest from Usenet, I'd spam my opt-out-list,
I'd spam mail-to's on every single bloody web site,
all over the net.

Well I'm not a spammer, I've got nothing to sell,
I know it's wrong to spam, all over the net.
I complain to ISP's and even the FTC,
I'd like to get all of the money grubbing spammers
kicked off of the net.
