Spamalot

No, not the Monty Python musical.  This is different.  I checked my email this morning and I got an email notification from an old blog site of mine.  I haven't posted anything there in years, but it's still around.  See, in 2008-09, I decided to write 300 pieces for brass ensemble.  I wasn't going to make myself write one each day, but that's pretty much how it turned out.  Occasionally, I'd give myself the day off, but it was a rarity.  I finished the entire project after 323 days and then set to posting.  Funny thing, the internet of 2009 relied on hosting services in order to post larger files.  After all, I wanted to post the audio files that I exported from Finale, the notation software.  I set myself up with one hosting company and began posting every single piece.  A week after I finished, it shut down.  Yeah, just my luck.  Since then, the blog is still there, but it has no music files.  All kinds of descriptions, but no music.  Oh, well.  It was a massive project that made me really proud of my abilities five years ago, but I immediately went on to something else.  And that's pretty much been how I operate since then: do big project, move on.  However, the site attracts spam.  Most of it is cryptic or stupid or wants to help me with web traffic.  What I got this morning is pretty special.  Here it is:

What i don't realize is if truth be told how you're no longer really much more well-preferred than you may be now.  You're very intelligent. You understand therefore significantly relating to this matter, produced me personally imagine it from numerous varied angles. Its like men and women don't seem to be fascinated until it's one thing to accomplish with Girl gaga!
Your individual stuffs outstanding. All the time care for it up!
You think it's going to make sense and it just doesn't; it never quite gets there.  Sometimes spam is fun.  All the time care for it up - that's what I say!  I'm just trying to figure out what language this was translated from or what its author's native language is.  I realize that it actually might be engineered to not make sense so as to make it searchable.  And therefore, it might attract spam to this crappy blog.  If it does, I hope it's like this.
