Just got to love spammers...not.

Just checked my email and one was undeliverable return mail message saying some email I sent someone wasn't deliverable. Guess what, it was a spam mail sent to someone using my email addy as the return address. Examing the headers the real origination was some .dk address

I love the new Ebay ones... Indicating that they want to "withdraw a negative feedback" that you received... I guess the "Someone is using your account! you need to verify" and the "Ship me my item or I'll report you!" methods have become stale...

Well - as long as they get one idiot, they'll keep on trying.

That's my fear

I'm wondering how many people will think I've given up the reef business and gotten into selling porn and sexual enhancment aids

Come to think of it, I might make more money that way

There's a thought, I hear it's good money! Several years ago my name got attached to a virus. Man did I get some hate mail. People said things to me that even shocked me! Of course none of them were smart enough to realize that most people who send virus' don't usually sign it. There probably are a few tho.

Had the same thing happen to me several years ago, I even got death threats from people Funny thing is, if they bothered to check the email headers they would have been able to see who's computer they actually came from. When I contacted the guy the virus was actually mailed from, he swore up and down it couldn't be his PC...than he actually ran a virus scan and apologized profusely

Talking I had my very first Margarita tonight...

Well the neighbor up the street has her daughters in b/c her husband is in the hospital for open heart surgery... Well they called me and invited me up as we've not seen each other in a group setting in quite sometime... The oldest just transferred from London to California, b/c her hubby is an Officer in the Navy... Well long story short her dad is doing really well... They were having some drinks, margaritas being the main thing along with some Corona , My favorite!!! Welllll I was offered a Margarita and told them I've never had one... Well let me say they are YUMMMY!!! I think I've found a wonderful use for my blender ...
