Bet You Didn't Know...
Usage of the term 'spam' for junk e-mail came from 19th century housekeeper, Milka Kopecky, who was known for scolding the local mailman, saying, 'We don't need anything to spálit na popel [incinerate] today, sir!' while chasing him down the steet, broom in hand. In her anger, her speech became slurred prompting local children to call her spami pani [burny lady?]. (Incedently, some etymologists have posited that this is also how the term "charwoman" originated.)
