You're wrong about River. River's not on the ship. They didn't want her here, but she couldn't make herself leave. So she melted... Melted away. They didn't know she could do that, but she did.

Okay, so if you had a friend whose yahoo email was hacked, spewing two spam linky mails to the entire address list, even the dead people, in the two minutes before she discovered the issue and changed the password, would you appreciate a followup "sorry I got hacked" email, or let it be?

Signed, sorry, everyone, and you should really use my gmail anyway, I just never closed my yahoo address because have you met my mother? Technological change is not her thing.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

That was lovely. Both the story and the webpage. I keep hoping I'll have a story like that.

Yes, and yes.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Don't worry about it, flea. I'd just let it be.

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty

Pretty much exactly, precisely what P-C said.

(Though my very first reaction was that I know a Jess married to a Russ, and for a second wondered...but no).

There must be a major breech at Yahoo. I got another spam mail from a friend I NEVER get mail from on his Yahoo account as well.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

I want to hug my mom and tell her how much I love her right now. She was a great mom, and y'all are reminding me of how grateful I am for her love.

I feel the same way, Burrell.

flea, I was just coming here to ask if you'd been hacked! Speaking just for me, I don't think a followup email would be necessary, but I did feel the need to make sure you knew you'd been hacked, so you might be fielding some emails from people wondering the same thing.

Yes, notably my brother, who snarked that I should be using Gmail. Which I, you know, am, except for legacy purposes, like my mother.

I sent out a "Sorry for all the REALLY inappropriate spam" email when I got hacked, but mine was also a couple of days before I figured out how to deal, so I felt VERY BAD.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

And I am sick of people just piping up with "adopt!" to me. Like a kid is something I can just to the store to buy.

Um. That's not really how I would characterize adoption.

Eh, it's usually pretty obvious, so I just delete it and move on. Of course, it's usually pretty obvious because I'm suddenly getting e-mail from someone I haven't spoken to in years.

Lee! You are Lee again.
