wrong address

This morning I received an email with the subject line 'Pregnancy lactaton.'

In prior days, I probably would have simply deleted the mail without looking, not having a burning interest in either pregnancy or lactation. But nowadays, I'm all about pregnancy, 'lactaton,' and gullibility-enhancing sleep deprivation.

Well. As it turns out, the subject line 'Pregnancy lactaton' had about as much to do with actual pregnancy and lactation as the subject line 'XXX' has to do with the alphabet, if you catch my drift. My goodness. The Internet, home of all manner of small businesses, is also home to quite a few breastfeeding entrepreneurs. I could, apparently, set up quite a side business as the result of this lactation shindig.

Yuck. But at least they knew their target audience. Apparently somebody thinks I'm very interested in "horny suburban moms."
