Not really a site issue, but I got my first ever Nigerian spam today after I posted a direct link to my hotmail account in my signature line. It took a lot of effort and time (before Wendell told me how to do it:-) ) and now I'm afraid to leave it there.

Edit: so I am contactable now through my profile like everyone else, duh.

"I used to be 'with it', but then they changed what 'it' was. Now what I'm with isn't 'it', and what's 'it' seems weird and scary."

Probably.

I won $110 from Lucky Emperor Casino...never heard of the place. So I just delete them.

Tim,
Same here. But, only after I created a yahoo account with the same addy....just different suffix.

24 bottles of beer in a case.

24 hours in a day.

Coincidence? I think not.

Thanks for the input, Carolee

(I'm gonna keep spelling your name like that until everybody knows. I found it out the hard way - it's embarrassing to be corrected)

But yeah, I believe neither your beer nor my Nigerian are coincidences.

And Fleming, I may be as old and as incontinent as Grandpa Simpson, but I have a firm grasp of "it." Go no further with that, please.

Actually, that was a joke; I'm not incontinent. Yet.

Hope things are looking better for you, Mapitowski.

Tim: always good to hear from you buddy.

Don

Thanks Don,
They are...made some tough choices this past week. Choices for the good.

Even got a phone call from an attorney Wednesday. I explained I was done....he wanted me to give a proposal anyway. So I will have one to him Monday....another court case. Then, after this one no more....and this time I mean it....:)

Think I'll have a nigerian beer tonight (lol)
