That seems to happen every one in a while. We have a good group of moderators that protect us from the cyber-weirdos.

I reported one, went to the user's post list to start reporting others. They were being deleted about as fast as I went to the list. So they're Johnny on the spot today.
And I'll take one of those sandwiches too please..... on toasted wheat bread. <G>

Bah... It's been worse than this one many times before. That said, I really need to learn to read/write in cyrillic.

I copied one of the messages and put it through a translator and that one was an advertisement for working from home over the computer to make money.

We are tackling the issue. They seem to hit harder right before Black Friday

From a letter from President Eisenhower to H.H. Corey president of Hormel [producers of Spam] in 1966:
''I ate my share of Spam along with millions of other soldiers,'' Dwight D. Eisenhower wrote to Hormel in 1966. ''I'll even confess to a few unkind remarks about it - uttered during the strain of battle, you understand. But as former Commander in Chief, I believe I can still forgive you your only sin: sending us so much of it.''

I didn't realize we forced Spam on the British.
