If I Knew Then What I Know Now

by Scott Schroeder on July 9, 2007

I never would have put a link up on my site with my email address. Now, in addition to the 50+ emails that I normally receive, I also get 30+ spam emails every day, informing me of all sorts of products that I would rather not talk about. Like some of the fast women I’ve encountered in my mere 25 years of existence, these spam emails are nothing but a tease!! I hear a ‘ding’, notifying me of a new email and I get all excited, only to check my inbox and receive these bogus offers. It’s got to be a crime!

Oh well, I am not one for believing in cliches but, “what goes around comes around” and these spamming fools got something coming (I hope). I know it’s Monday and it sounds like a case of the Moo-ndays but, honestly, I’m fine, just blowing off some steam and venting a bit. With that said, if you should ever need/want to contact me, please do feel free to anytime by simply leaving a comment on anyone of my posts or by filling out my contact form. Lastly, please enjoy the Beastie Boys video below with their hit song, Spam.

Too bad I can’t customize my blogger hosted blog to have a contact form :(

Hi, Cherry, how are you feeling today? And, sorry about your blogger blog not having a ‘contact form’. Maybe you could make a request to them or maybe you could set up a post/page with some sort of form where users could leave a comment/message for you.

Regardless, I hope you are doing well, Cherry, see you!

Hey, Kim, welcome to ScottPot! Yeah, I am still (and probably will always be) learning the hard way with this one- the same crazy emails just keep pouring in.

Thanks for your reply, Kim, I hope to see you around.

Well my email addy is a throw away one so I don’t worry too much, of course when the number hits 30 spam a day I might worry

Hi, Cherry, how is your day? That’s smart of you to use a throw away email ;) . I wish I would have thought this one out prior to displaying my email. The bad news is that I have a few accounts set up through the email address that I foolishly used to have on my sidebar. Now, I just duck, dodge and dive spam while hoping for legit messages. All in a day’s work.

Take care, Cherry!!
:D

Well then lucky you for having WP installed. Blogger has too many limitations, but then it’s free so I can’t complain :D

Hi, Cherry! Sorry about your blogger limitations, I still love your blog and the information contained therein.

I hope you have a wonderful weekend, Cherry, take care and stay coooool (and don’t work too hard ;) ).
