Ali got her first ever piece of spam today, she was quite excited, so clicked on the link.

It went off to an adult dating site. Luckily, it was rather tastefully done. I told her not to click on links without knowing who they were from.

And no, she didn't join up.

She was excited about receiving spam?

I could forward the contents of my spam folder to her, if she wants... :lol:

I get about a hundred a day. I quite possibly chuck away useful/important emails at any point if they're not in my friend's list.

I created a disposable email once recently after I got McAffee Security center. It has this nice little thing called 'Site Advisor' which warns about spammy sights and how often there were emails sent after the tester signed up for the sight. So I did my own little test with an email address. That email address got in one week...1600+ emails in the bulk folder (yahoo account) and about 75 in the the Inbox.

I run Spam Assassin on my server, so I rarely even see any real spam making it through the filters. I've never had a false positive that I'm aware of either, but I don't really look through the spam folder all that closely. Last time I glanced in there, I had several thousand spam emails going back two or three months.

so you had a similar type dream.

Yes, just longer with more details and a storyline. :) It's probably right up there with the all time most interesting dreams I've ever had...

Mike had a dream about Nathan when I was pregnant with him. In the dream, he and Matthew and Nathan were on a train in the UK (where we lived at the time) and some burly guy was giving the boys a hard time because they were wearing Man United shirts. Mike had to intervene! :)
He had wanted to name the baby Ethan; I wanted to name the baby Nathan. Because he was Nathan in the dream, Nathan it was. :D

Well, now I'm intrigued about your Matthew dream. Care to share it?

I had another go at a pano, this time with 24 exposures. (This could become addictive). I like this one better.

It's a Linky so click on the pic.

Hey all, got back to town from an EXTREMELY relaxing weekend. Other than my parents, my daughter & granddaughter visiting for a while yesterday. It was just Lisa and me out at the land. Quite a nice change, there is often upwards of 20-30 friends and family members out there (though that is always fun too).

I just did a quick scroll through to look at the photos, there is no way I was going to try to read over 500 posts.

Lots of fantastic photos by everyone.

Dan, those were real funny TR's. :lol:

Lonnie, the new 'do looks just fine. You had a nice skull lurking beneath that hair.

That's the plan. I don't plan on growing the hair back...
