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

Last night I got a computer message telemarketing call. It said something like, "We noticed you recently visited the website of an affiliate of ours and-"

I hung up at that point. That's kinda weird and disturbing, right? Getting a telemarketing call after visiting a website? Or is that common now?

I suppose they could be lying. Or else some sort of ad-tracking software noticed I visited the site and they matched me to a list of phone numbers somehow.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Got a flat tire this morning. Brought the car to the nearest service station. Took until 12:30 to get the car back.(Luckily they brought me back to my house and picked me up when things were done, else I would have been quite bored.) Took the rest of the day off work. Here I am.

I have deep privacy concerns. It makes sense if you explicitly gave your telephone number to one of their affiliate websites, like signing up for a service, asking for an insurance quote, donating to charity, or anything else where there's a box saying something like "it's okay for partners to contact me".

If you haven't done that, then your ISP could be evil.

I mean, they're all evil, but business practices may vary.

It cracks me up sometimes how in sync my sister and I are. We'll frequently go off to get dressed in the morning without seeing each other and come out in nearly identical outfits. That kind of thing.

Texts this morning:

Her: So, what are you doing Sunday? Me: Going to a football game?

Sure enough, her ex offered us his season tix for this weekend. Which never happens, even when they were together.

I don't think I have but I can't be positive. Maybe I should have listened to the whole message--it might have given me a clue.
