• Don’t freak out webbie types, but if I unfollow you it’s b/c I’m following you as @pixelitadesigns. Otherwise to hard to follow it all. #
• I don’t care if you follow me; if you’re interesting, I’ll follow you. This isn’t high school. (Is it?) #

• Another pair killed by drunk driver (with priors) in Houston. http://www.chron.com/disp/story.mpl/front/6275478.html #

• Been sick as a dawg past 24 hours. Need to catch up on web work. Sun. is last day of 10-day vacay. #

I guess if spammers were really smart, they’d have figured out that no one pays any attention to obvious scams anymore. (At least I don’t. Do you?) This one was worth blogging about. It so obviously wasn’t from Prodigy that it’s not even funny. Well, actually, it’s funny as hell. Anyone who falls for this should have a beating. Enjoy.
