Started a few entries during the last week, didn’t like them, melted them down into emoticons and threw the emoticons at passers by like beads at Madre gras. I was going to write an excuse entry for why I didn’t do a flash on Friday. Truth is I was knackered, gob smacked and something else that vaguely sounds real but might not be. Ok, gob smacked means absolutely nothing, knackered actually means dead and processed but the modern useage just means tired, just like dead tired or licked for beat. I mean you’d think folks would be smiling when they just got “licked” but they aren’t.
So now I’m just aimless. Oh, wait, no, I could tell you why I was so tired on Friday; I hadn’t slept. I know that seems so obvious as to be a deflection but there were probably some people who were very tired on Friday who had slept. I mean things like hiking, gator wrassling and doing the in-laws taxes make people tired too. I don’t have in laws, well, not my own, I’ve never seen a gator in the State of MI (not saying there are none, just that if I haven’t run across one there probably aren’t any, just based on statistical probability and sub zero winters alone.) and any hiking around here would just be walking through flat woods or cornfields or maybe a mall, the differences being nuanced; the topography only marginally varied.
So, if any of y’all have on occasion pretended to be a Nigerian barrister or barista (apologies to those of you who actually are Nigerian barristers or barista’s and, I suppose, Michigan gators) or have copied paypals font and asked a person to login in verify some details, or, you know, in general have digitally trawled the bottom of the food chain with a sticky net, I would like to offer some advice instead of the typical damning you all to hell or Helen Bach. Here it is; don’t use your own e-mail address or your own imagination to create a new address.
Paypal doesn’t, for instance, have a yahoo account, and if they did it wouldn’t be [email protected] . Heh, that lit up blue. You’re welcome to email that address, as far as I know that guy is just stoned and is probably merely a Nigerian paralegal. I mean I’ve never seen that address before. I do, however, go through my spam to make sure something I want didn’t get caught in there before dumping it. Amazing how many would be con artists don’t seem to know how to obscure their address and/or choose a plausible address like [email protected] — heh, blue too. If that’s a real address the owner deserves whatever hate mail they get.
Ok that should do it then. Try hard to be nice and if you just simply can’t muster it, at least be funny or clever.
