That's been my experience, too. I used to get maybe 10 spams a day. But
now it's at least 100 and if I haven't been on for a couple of days it
can be a couple hundred. AND my ISP claims they also have a Spam
filter... so even more are coming in. I myself don't know what kind of
Spam filter they're using since it misses stuff you can tell is Spam from
50 yards -- oh, except come to think of it I haven't had any offers lately
to enlarge my penis. (I kind of miss them..) .What's big now is showing
your friends you've "arrived" by what you've got on your wrist...

"Nab" is actually in the dictionary for "grab" or catch in the act. The
Daily News likes it for headlines when some evil doer is "nabbed." --
"Nabble" has the sound & feel of a construction, tho I wd like them better
if it didn't sound so dippy. (Maybe it's meant to rhyme with babble, which
they nab?)
