Smell Some Fresh Body
So said the subject line of an email in my Gmail spam folder. Actually, the entire line said "SMELL some fresh body of adorable Breanne W. Dysinger" and the originating address was from Breanne at: aevaky@taty.org.
Here's a screen shot of the email: (click image for larger view)
I posted the image because when I copied the mail to a Notepad document to then post in here, I got a lot more weird stuff that was in tiny letters between the rest of the text; here's an example:

There was a lot more, but I'm sure you get the gist. I'm certain all that and the rest was an attempt to get past the spam filters.
I think I'm going to petition my congressman to pass a law that mandates the death penalty for spammers. After a few dozen robo-calls this last week from politicians wanting my vote, I doubt he'd go for it because I want them to be executed, too.

No Zzzzz's For Me
| You Are an Insomniac |
 It's likely that this quiz confirms what you already know - you have insomnia. It's difficult for you to sleep well through the night, and it's having a bad effect on your life. You should probably seek treatment for your insomnia ... or at least try some home remedies. Consider giving up caffeine and sticking to a sleep schedule. Everyone deserves a full night of rest. |
No, it's no surprise to me, but I don't have insomnia ALL the time. I do, however, have problems finding a regular sleep schedule. I do enjoy a good, uninterrupted sleep, but absolutely hate trying to go to sleep unless I'm really tired; otherwise, I'll lie there and think of all the things I should have done that day and the things I need do the next. I also have some really strange dreams if I have too much stimulation before bedtime. (or eat too late)
incredibox
An auditory delight, incredibox might very well be the best time waster we've featured so far.
It's not hard to do, just "drag, drop and listen!" as the intro will show you. A cute detail is, when you're dragging the sound effect/beat/melody/chorus/voices to each guy, you will see his eyes follow the symbol as you drop it onto his chest. After you get done with assigning a sound to all seven guys, sit back and enjoy the tune you've created. Mute any as you like for a different result or hit the "shuffle" button to change the overall effect (when it gets rid of one guy and adds another) or remove sounds. It also has a feature that allows you to record the sound you like and send it to someone.

Women in the News
Was checking my Bing search page and clicking on links ( not just to read the news, but also to get points, which I redeem for Amazon gift certificates - which *some* might think a waste of time and not worth it, but in the last couple of months I've got discounts on my Amazon purchases to the tune of $25) and was reading various articles about different women in the news.
The first article was "DWTS host let go" The host was a woman by the name of Brooke Burke-Charvet and to be honest, I've never heard of her...but that's because I don't watch Dancing With the Stars. She's a pretty young woman, but not only am I not a fan of DWTS, I'm not a fan of hyphenated names. Before my ex and I married, she said said she wanted to keep her maiden name and hyphenate it with mine. I told her I'd rather she keep her maiden name rather than alter mine. I didn't insist she take my last name; I just didn't want hers tacked onto mine. I'm not only not a fan of hyphenated last names, I'm not a fan of hyphenated labels, particularly those like "African-American" and the like. We're Americans, plain and simple. If people insist I refer to them that way, then I'm a "Super-Duper-Wonderful-Great-American". You HAVE to call me that or I'll get all offended and butt-hurt. ("Butt-hurt" should be hyphenated, though.)
I then read about Maria von Trapp, the last surviving member of the family that was the basis of "The Sound of Music". She was 99, so it was hard for me to feel overly sad at her passing. (most people would love to live that long) I'm also not a fan of musicals, so I wasn't a fan of that one.
Next was an article about Katy Perry getting booed at a Milan Week fashion show because she was late to the event. I used to be enamored with Ms. Perry, then she married Russell Brand...which made me question her good sense. She then spoke out on politics, which verified she has no sense at all. I used to think she was pretty, but after looking at recent photographs, I've come to the conclusion that her looks have peaked and it's all downhill for her from here on out. (because I don't think she'll get by on her "talent")
Wanting a change of pace, I read an article about Jennifer Lawrence's new Dior ad campaign. The photos made her look glamorous, but not as pretty as she's been in other ones...and I think she's very pretty in the photos I've seen of her without makeup. She'll be a lovely woman when she's 60 yrs. old, I bet. I haven't seen any of the movies she's done, but have seen her interviewed several times and she seems to be a down-to-earth person with a good sense of humor and not too full of herself, a lovely person both outside and in. I hope her success won't spoil her.
After that, I clicked on an article about Miley Cryus kissing Perry at one of Cyrus's recent concerts. Yuck. I don't know why, but I clicked on another link leading to a video about fans outside the concert and one woman with her daughter in tow was saying Cyrus was a good role model. Good grief.
Sick of that crapola, I read an article about Ronda Rousey and her first round KO of Sara McMann in last night's bout. I found a place to watch it online and was certainly glad I didn't pay to watch 66 seconds of two women fighting. What I WOULD pay for, however, is to see that woman - who thinks Miley Cryus is a positive role model - get into the ring with Rousey. Maybe Rousey could knock some sense into her head. Heck, put Cyrus in there too, along with Katy Perry. Three against one, that *might* be a fair fight. I'd love to see Rousey knee Cyrus in the liver like she did McMann. Ouch. Actually, I'd love to see Rousey knock Cyrus out. The only trouble would be if Cryus started having a seizure from a severe blow to the head; the referee might think she was just twerking.
I know one thing, I wouldn't get into the ring with Rousey; I doubt I'd last a minute. I'm not sure I'd last 60 seconds with her in other places, either.
