Not anymore. I'm sure he meant 12 degrees Fahrenheit

Archived topic from Iceteks, old topic ID:578, old post ID:24008

Well we got the snow now. It's a lot different then the +12 I was bragging about before.
Oh and I meant +12 degrees celsius. That's the way it works here in Canada.

You've probably seen, heard or even used the term "spamming" to refer to the act of sending unsolicited commercial email (UCE), or "spam" to refer to the UCE itself. Following is our position on the relationship between UCE and our trademark SPAM.

Use of the term "spam" was adopted as a result of the Monty Python skit in which our SPAM meat product was featured. In this skit, a group of Vikings sang a chorus of "spam, spam, spam . . . " in an increasing crescendo, drowning out other conversation. Hence, the analogy applied because UCE was drowning out normal discourse on the Internet.

We do not object to use of this slang term to describe UCE, although we do object to the use of the word "spam" as a trademark and to the use of our product image in association with that term. Also, if the term is to be used, it should be used in all lower-case letters to distinguish it from our trademark SPAM, which should be used with all uppercase letters.

This slang term, which generically describes UCE, does not affect the strength of our trademark SPAM. In a Federal District Court case involving the famous trademark STAR WARS owned by Lucasfilm Ltd., the Court ruled that the slang term used to refer to the Strategic Defense Initiative did not weaken the trademark and the Court refused to stop its use as a slang term. Other examples of famous trademarks having a different slang meaning include MICKEY MOUSE, to describe something as unsophisticated and CADILLAC, used to denote something as being high quality. It is only when someone attempts to trademark the word "spam" that we object to such use, in order to protect our rights in our famous trademark SPAM. We coined this term in 1937 and it has become a famous trademark. Thus, we don't appreciate it when someone else tries to make money on the goodwill that we created in our trademark or product image, or takes away from the unique and distinctive nature of our famous trademark SPAM. Let's face it. Today's teens and young adults are more computer savvy than ever, and the next generations will be even more so. Children will be exposed to the slang term "spam" to describe UCE well before being exposed to our famous product SPAM. Ultimately, we are trying to avoid the day when the consuming public asks, "Why would Hormel Foods name its product after junk e-mail?"

Position Statement on "Spamming"

We oppose the act of "spamming" or sending UCE. We have never engaged in this practice, although we have been victimized by it. If you have been one of those who has received UCE with a return address using our website address of SPAM.com, it wasn't us. It's easy and commonplace for somebody sending UCE to simply adopt a fake header ID, which disguises the true source of the UCE and makes it appear that it is coming from someone else. If you have or do receive UCE with this header ID, please understand that it didn't come from us.

Other "spam" Websites

This is the one and only official SPAM Website, brought to you by the makers of the SPAM Family of products. All of the others have been created by somebody else. We are not associated with those other websites and are not responsible for their content. As a Company, we are opposed to content that is obscene, vulgar or otherwise not "family friendly." We support positive family values and you can count on us for "safe surfing" by your children.

Thank you for visiting the official SPAM Website!

Wow, these people really want to boost their SPAM awareness. Is it really worth it? Why don't they just call it Simulated HAM.

Archived topic from Iceteks, old topic ID:578, old post ID:24425

Or Clic, thta's what we call it here

Oh and I don't know if I mentioned that before, but that site is horendous, for a company! I could possibly maybe see that type of layout for a less serious site like this, but a corporation so proud of their product?

What's next? http://microsoft.tripod.com ?! lol

I don't get it, I often see people in the online user list looking at the topic Tubgirl (it was a drawing of a girl inside a tub, some safety site about jets and hair getting stuck in them). Why oh why do people search for that? LOL

Archived topic from Iceteks, old topic ID:578, old post ID:24427

tubgirl = possible porno. 'Nuff said.

Archived topic from Iceteks, old topic ID:578, old post ID:24428

Yeah I guess some people like that stuff... lol

Archived topic from Iceteks, old topic ID:578, old post ID:24433

Ya. Hey, how do you get a picture to go in your signature. Like you have "Merry Christmas from Red Squirrel". How do I import one in there, if it's not from a website, but from my own files?

Archived topic from Iceteks, old topic ID:578, old post ID:24434

It has to be hosted somewhere else, then you use the [img] tags. But a feature to import one would not be a bad idea actually... Maybe something to impliment later on.

Archived topic from Iceteks, old topic ID:578, old post ID:24435

Cool . You must be mad with work now. Got all these new things you want to implement

Archived topic from Iceteks, old topic ID:578, old post ID:24436

Yeah, just no time lol. I'm working on the mall right now though, but some of the stuff I mentioned will probably go till after the home crime scene investigation is over.

Archived topic from Iceteks, old topic ID:578, old post ID:24437

Yea what's new with that? You need to pin an update thread for us.

The suspect could potentially come here so just in case it's why I did not mention it much. But lately it's quiet, I know 99% it's him, or that he's associated with it, we just can't prove it. Even the cop said it's probably him, based on what we've got.

I'll have to call the cop today to see if we can arange one of those, questionings. Just like CSI.
