Okay--I now realize I need an explanation.  I thought the opening post was an invitation to make stuff up.  These are things actually sent via e-mail?  Why, please, and what do spam filters have to do with it?

Jackie, the latest SPAM rage uses random subject lines, in an effort to sneak past your spam filters.  Fald found them poetic, or at least one of them.  my email provider stops most of my spam at the server, so it never gets to my inbox, but I can check it online to see if I'm not missing any legitimate mail.  some of the names of the "people" sending this spam are pretty interesting, too.  I did have to check one that was from "Shona."  sadly, it was not to be...

some of the names of the "people"
 If you haven't been fortunate enough to get some of these, they have names like 'Dispute K. Invalidate.'

That and whole phrases or a certain style. That's why Spams have been getting more poetical. They're trying to make them less like other spams.

 The links were embedded in this text...
 "The heealthy way to lonse foat and keep it okff."
 "Best vadlue weikght lopss progxram on the intgernet!"
 
 And if that wasn't wacky enough, it came with the following long list of words in the body which, I would think when included, would be more apt to have it filtered...
