Add your response to Spam is 30 Years old: Response from: Cathy Romine Spam- Not everything is spam...Have you noticed how there are tons of marketers who join sites and agree to receive an offer and send theirs like crazy and then the first time they get something - they hit spam... Sad... What I hate is all the phone calls I get to my home even though I'm on the do not call list - now that's what makes me furious...If you send me something in my mailbox - I have tons of junk ones, I just delete you... Lifes Short - Why Complain so much... Most of these people are legite and just trying to figure out a way to help feed their families and pay for all this high cost gas...lol Don't worry - Be happy, :) Cathy Romine http://cathyromine.com
