…about a certain large-ish cartoon and video-game character who never seems to be well-rested.
I really appreciate how intensely the two guys in this video are debating this topic. I think that this is a powerful and very enlightening case study featuring this country’s future potential. (I’d insert a smiley rolling his eyes at this point, but I don’t know how…)
“Gotta catch ‘em all!”
This one came today, and it was sure new to me. The picture is classic spammer fare, as you can see for yourself below, but the message that followed was surreal in its irrelevance.

The first hint of dawn was sifting through the birch trees in his backyard, but the view looked somehow different this morning. As an odd combination of fear and exhilaration settled over him, Langdon knew he had no choice The man led Langdon the length of the hangar. They rounded the corner onto the runway.
Mr. “Kenneth Harris”, you are a strange one, indeed.
I’ve recently become quite excited about going to the gym which can only be a good thing really… until I start getting ideas like this. Who wants try this in the kresge fitness center?

So, it goes without saying that if you get an email that looks like the one below, it is a scam. If you fill out the webpage they link (which has a .nl address), you will very quickly find yourself without money.
Man though, they sure aren’t shy about asking for information. They want your name, the name of your credit union, the number on your atm card, the expiration date, the CVV2 number, and your PIN number. I’m surprised they don’t ask for your mother’s maiden name and your SSN too.

This is probably my extreme lack of knowledge about how my own government works, but did all of you realize how Ford became president?
Spiro Agnew was Nixon’s vice president and resigned (because of some tax problems), so Nixon appointed Ford to be vice president. Then Nixon resigned and Ford became president. That makes him the only president who wasn’t actually elected.
Very odd.
