Should I feel honoured?

reynardoIjsut got my first piece of junk SMS. I've had wrong numbers on my mobile before, and mysterious "private number"'s calling in the middle of lectures (turned out to be my little brother calling from work - their switchboard doesn't allow caller ID) but this is the first time I've received a message that's just a piece of advertising.
And just what I need to cheer up with. This cold is hanging on and I need my little amusements.
It sort of feels like when an office I worked at got its first invoice for inclusion in the "World Fax Directory". Or when I first received one of the "You have won 2000 European currency and if you send $YY we will send them to you. Or the Nigerian banking letters. I've never had a Nigerian banking letter - I suppose I don't earn quite enough to be included in the scam.
So now I'm considered worthy to receive junk SMS. I feel so included!
I just wish I knew how they'd managed to set their return number to 000. It must be pissing the emergency service off no end.
