That's scary, Aims.

I'm blessed in that I got a good long nap in before the tree-trimming guys bothered me. And that was to move my car. And I'd been dreaming I was taking an essay test. So I'll call that a win.

Aims, if you haven't signed into Ebay in a long time, they did improve their security settings awhile ago. Like a good year or so ago. But a call/e-mail to Ebay wouldn't be a bad idea, since it seems hacking ebay is an easy thing to do, and ebay phishing is a past time in some parts of the world.

ION-, the money boss of the theater ran the Big D marathon on Sunday. His wife posted pictures in Facebook, and he is wiped out by the end. Talking in the office, he was saying how he was pissed that he ran/walked the last 4 miles. That he was wanting to run the whole thing, and how exhausted he was at the end, blah blah blah. Then I reminded him of the story of how the marathon length came to be, a soldier running 26 miles to tell the news of victory, Nike!, and then collapsing DEAD. Which made him smile and realize, yes, he finished his first marathon! Dude! Be proud!! He came in 23rd for his age group. How cool is that?

ARGH.

So, of course, last night I was all squeeing and bouncy, but a little tipsy and did not actually answer the email I got from the girl. But it's not actually an email, it's a message on Facebook.

And this morning? FACEBOOK IS DOWN AND WON'T LET ME IN! NOOOOOO. EEEEEEVIL.

Oh, how frustrating, meara. You deserve to be able to contact her so you can plan the dance moves....

Also, has anyone logging into paypal recently had to verify bank account or credit card information and then change the pasword?

No, but phishing e-mails do that. Did you get an e-mail saying you needed to do something about your Paypal account?

That's why I don't understand the urge to replicate his feat.

Nope. It was when I typed paypal into my address bar and went to the site.

I think I remember having had to do that, Aims.

My grandfather was finally able to have all his medical tests today. He passed the kidney stones, and everything else is ok. I'm very relieved.

That's why I don't understand the urge to replicate his feat.

Ooh, I just learned two weeks ago that when using quotation marks, while in Hebrew you'll exclude the period/whatever mark that's in the end of the sentence outside of the quotation marks, you don't do the same in English. Regarding that, I have only one question: WTF? I understand different grammar rules. I understand different languages. I do not understand these crazy assed monkey rules. No, really.

great news sj!
