The ads say it all!


Noticed how sort of relevant ads pop up alongside your mail, because some smart machine is reading your mail and crunching it up and producing keywords. I keep meaning to list some fantastically inappropriate ones - or perhaps they are appropriate, after all.
For instance. In recent times I've been writing about the funny fracas with the publishers of the Chicken Soup for the Soul series of books. Me and some of the other writers involved who have been in touch about these publishers and their strange ways, have been having a lot of fun with the word Chicken, as you can imagine. the metaphors flew fast and thick over our mail, for a while there. And look what the ads on the side offered, amongst other things like Chicken Mesh, Manure, etc...:
Books on Raising Chickens
Books, Free Information for Farmers & Vets on Raising Chickens
WireMesh baskets,container,shelving animal cages manufacturer exporter
Land for sale Kentucky. Poultry Farm Listings
and last but definitely not the least:

Poultry Slaughter lines for sale

Lol! I know what you're talking about... Like every time I have to clear the spam folder, I get this ad on the top of my mail selling me spam quiche recipes. It's funny!
