Spammers s***. And brief notes of plans for the day.

[kyrielle]

I got an email today from "Ada" with subject "You okay?"

I have a relative (a cousin of my Mom, I think, but don't hold me to that - she may be an aunt) named Ada. I don't know her very well, but she has emailed a couple times since my parents died.

I hate spammers. I was all set to reassure her that I was fine, only to discover it was some spammer trying to interest me in some stock. Of course, in retrospect I think the real Ada's "from" line reads more than "Ada" but we've only emailed a couple times and I didn't think about it until I opened it and was annoyed. :P

Off to my parents' house in a bit to do a few things, then home again. I plan to start uploading images from some of the scans today - I think I will do one or at most two rolls a day, both so I don't burn out, and because I'm really hoping people will actually look at them, and that's less likely if I pelt a few hundred up at once. ;) They'll be in sets, though, so I know which came from the same roll, so that should help.

Have a good day, if you're reading this. (Have a good day if you aren't, for that matter.... :)

I can't stand spam and it has been seriously on the increase lately. I just don't get it and that's a big part of the problem. How does any of this do any good? Are there people who actually do something with these stock tips? Do I really need to get the same tip 100 times from 100 different spammers? Oy! I don't agree with the death penalty for many crimes but spamming is one.
