Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Should I be worried?

Nah. As you've already deduced, they're just using your address and haven't actually done anything to your account; there's very little chance you'd be able to trace the culprits, and they'll move on to a different address in a matter of hours or days. Plus, the likelihood of anyone you actually know getting a spam from your address and getting hosed off at you is amazingly tiny.

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.

Plus, if one of my friends sent me an "add inches to your johnson!" email I'd be very amused. Unless it was a lady friend. Or my mum.

Connie, I have a Razr from AT&T just sitting here.

It's going to be a while before I'm actually in phone shopping mode. This will be the first cellphone in the family, as Hubby is more often than not at home. But thank you very much.

Just call me "Siouxsie Shunshine".

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

From a buttload back:

A friend who just got an iTouch is returning it because [...] it didn't download email attachments--he said you had to be attached to the internet to open them

I just turned off my iPod touch's wifi and opened up Mail - no trouble at all opening email or attachments.

Jessica--you have a Touch or an iPhone? He's maintaining that may be a distinction. He also wants the entire email and attachment downloaded automatically, but I'd settle for assurance that an attachment already viewed is still available.

Compassionately intolerant

::headdeskheaddeskheaddesk::

The great sadness over losing the eMac (Daniel, I have yet to get the hard disk out) grows deeper as I have to recreate documents.

And having that process be such a time consuming pain in the ASS.

Word is driving me batcakes with the spontaneous moving of things. I set the document up with a 5 inch column and a two inch column. When I try to replace text, graphics disappear, lines move. It's CRAZY.

In short, how do I lock an object onto a page so that they don't move for anything? !!

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

As I recall, Jess has a Touch. As does Paul. I'm pretty sure he has no real attachment problems, but I'd have to ask.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I have a Touch and can definitely view attachments with the wifi off. I'm about 80% sure it was an attachment I hadn't opened before. (Can't check now because for some reason the !#$(%!@# thing didn't charge last night and now it has no battery power. It had better be full up and ready to go by the time I have to leave this morning.)

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

If IE 6.0 reports a Javascript error at, say, "line 7 char 2", what line is it counting from? The first line of javascript? the <script language="javascript">? First line of HTML?

Does "char 2" mean the second character of the line?

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Is there any good way to have email templates for emails I send a lot in outlook? I find myself typing the same answers over and over again (like how to send in payment).
