Spam poetry (just because … )
I've been doing some research on Racter [1], a program that supposedly wrote
The Policeman's Beard Is Half Constructed [2], and I came across a site where
a person used spam titles for poetry.
So today, I opened my spam folder, and lo, there was poetry:
> Two voices were
> anything to stop
> homeless as they were
>
> Drew with them,
> the prisoner glanced
> time there soared
>
> Starting from sometime
> into a pool
> Do you know what is Cailis?
>
Well … the actual subject lines were:
> Re: %RND_UC_CHAR[2-8], two voices were (from Torres Jerald)
> Re: %RND_UC_CHAR[2-8], anything to stop (from Abraham)
> Re: %RND_UC_CHAR[2-8], homeless as they (from Montano)
>
So these people had problems running their script, and I added a word to the
last one to make it more poetic, and I love the names of the supposed
senders.
> Re: GFDGSKD, drew with them (from Wilkes)
> Re: HBJMGLQ, the prisoner glanced (from Chelsea)
> Re: GRBPLJ, time there soared (Crawford Paula)
>
Crawford Paula must be from the Deep South™.
> Re: WADOZK, starting from sometime (from Cash Araceli)
> Re: IAKNIE, into a pool (from Cooper)
> Do You Know What Is -Cialis-? hevzj (from Kitty Jarvis)
>
Actually, I think Crash Araceli is a better sounding name than just Cash.
Kitty Jarvis though, nice, but sounds like a porn starlette.
