Posted: 04/28/05 8:26 pm ::: an e-mail from Kristopher Rasmussen |
Reply |

okay, i know a little about spyware and phishing and other ways that evil-doers try to get the upper hand on me and my e-mail inbox. but i must not know about this: i got an e-mail from Kristopher Rasmussen. Kristopher Rasmussen. now, i don't know a Kristopher Rasmussen, but that name is too conveniently similar to KRISTEN Rasmussen, whom i mentioned in a post here just the other day. i don't know rasmussen personally, and she doesn't know me, so we haven't been e-mailing each other. so how does this connect - i write about kristen rasmussen on this board, then i get an e-mail from Kristopher Rasmussen? how does that happen? is this some hybrid, like spyphishing?
the e-mail wouldn't have jumped out of my inbox so glaringly if it hadn't been sitting there in the list right under an e-mail from another familiar non-acquaintance, LETICIA LESLIE!
coincidence? i think not.

I haven't had that problem, but my boyfriend's spam used to be full of Beckys and Megans. Take *that* as you will.

Bibb, I noticed the same kind of freaky emails about a year or two ago.
Like you said; names that are almost familiar.

to totally twist this thread, slovy, i noticed that blue is already congratulating you on the other board (sorry to bring outside shit in, but this is fairly harmless) for coming up with "chicago blues." i-yuh . . . ahem! . . . i-yuh just wanna say that-tuh, uh-rummm . . . well, i know you did do some kinda cool graphic for the "chicago blues" on this board and all, butturruhhh . . . i hope you have proof of a post earlier than mine proclaiming that team name . . . i have found my original post and . . . uh-ruhhhh . . . it was pretty early in the game, so to speak . . .
i don't care if you do know tamika personally.

I emailed that graphic to Michael Alter when thought of it. He thought it looked pretty cool. I told him feel free to "tune up" the logo and use the idea.

When I read your earlier post, I thought there was an announcement about the Chicago team name.
That should happen pretty soon, shouldn't it?
