UVSC (Utah Valley Spam College)
UVSC will soon become UVU (Utah Valley University), or maybe it has already - who can keep track? But they will not be dropping the "S" altogether.

Orem's #1 destination for kids who miss high school is one of the biggest sources of SPAM in my inbox. Sometimes I'll get someone's personal email that they accidentally sent to the whole school, but mostly its job and study abroad program emails that I get. I don't know why. I haven't gone there in years.
The inbox abuse was fine and dandy, buy now they've started spamming my cell phone too. I just got a call from someone named "Ronnie" who is apparently some basketball player at UVSC. He sounded like he was on drugs or maybe just woke up, which was surprising because it was a recording. You'd think they could get one good take out of the guy before calling the masses, but apparently not.
My initial reaction was to hang up like I usually do when people call me and start talking about basketball. But I listened in to what Ronnie had to say. I didn't listen hard enough though, and all I could remember is that they were having some event that I was supposed to go to.
I'm glad I stayed on the line, because after Ronnie got done with his little message, another voice came on and told me I could unsubscribe from UVSC's cellphone spam by pressing the star button. I went ahead and pressed it and the voice told me I was unsubscribed. Killer.


Haven't you seen that
Haven't you seen that billboard on I-15 with a picture of Ronnie Price the UVSC gone NBA star? It must have been HIM! You're famous by association!
