Nightmare Fuel

I’m borrowing that phrase from Deadspin, for very good reason.  I took a peek in the spam folder in my Gmail today, to make sure nothing important got sent there…and came across this:

Mccain sex tape surfaces

/brain scrub

Moving on, it appears that some spammers have switched to humorous subjects for their offending mails, perhaps for the pity click for the joke:

Bulimia Not The Same As Being A Greedy Bastard, Say Doctors

Stupid woman buys iPhone for 5000

Bush And Putin Agree To Restart Cold War During G8 Summit

Capitalization is theirs.

Portland Pirates Coach

The Portland Press Herald has an extremely detailed report on the coaching situation for the Sabres’ AHL affiliate, the Portland Pirates.  Since Randy Cunneyworth joined the Atlanta Thrashers staff, Buffalo has switched gears and is talking to Kevin Dineen, who coached the Pirates for the past three seasons.  Dineen is also in the running to coach the Ducks’ new affiliate (the now-famous Iowa Chops) or become a scout with Anaheim.  The Ducks were the parent club for Portland last year.
