First email I opened this morning was from Amazon.com, which recommended a Photography for Dummies book. Their bot must have looked through my website and thought I needed help. Between this, and all of the Viagra emails, I'm beginning to think the Internet is starting to learn <sigh>

Take heart, at least you haven't been identified as being FAT or having YELLOW TEETH.

No, no, no, Bill.
The secret of success lies in having both excess avoirdupois and lead chromate-influenced teeth. Combined, these elevate you into the highest level of target market index, thus raising your desireabilty to the world.

Bill, No sweat."You'll wonder where the yellow went when you brush your teeth with Pepsodent."

If anyone feels that they aren’t getting enough targeted marketing, I can redirect the rejects from one of the junk mail filters I manage and will direct about 300,000 items to your inbox. Per day.

I read this a while ago. It seems relevant to this thread, somehow.

Amazon.com is getting a little too clever. I received an e-mail message promoting the “Encyclopedia of Digital Government”, based on my past activity.
At the bottom of the message, under “More to Explore”, Amazon suggested:
- Lies at the Altar: The Truth About Great Marriages
- Giving The Love That Heals
- Couples Companion: Meditations & Exercises for Getting the Love You Want: A Workbook for Couples
It was kind enough not to come right out and say, “We've noticed that customers who purchase 1,600 page encyclopedias on e-government also have partners who say they need some work on relationship skills.”

You have misinterpreted the message, or can profit from it. I can think of a couple of reasons:
- You have ordered from Amazon every photography product and every Photoshop book they carry, and missed this one. They value your business and want to make sure that your collections are complete.
- Someone referred you to Amazon and got rewarded by them. To return the favor and to profit similarly, send them the real names of the LL members.
