... spam-headlines want me to win a 4-figure amount in dollars by losing weight, remember people I've lost touch with, read an important message on how to scam people with a chainletter system, find out the secret to why women and men attract each other, salvage my damaged credit and buy hundres of millions of email-addresses for only a hundred bucks or so.
But the sun is shining, the ball-bearings are new and the birds are making spring-noises.
What a wonderful world.
