| One More Thing Before I Pass Out |
I had a Yahoo e-mail address for years, but it started acting pretty wonky this year. I get a large # of spam emails, and I started to have several REAL e-mails thrown into the spam folder. Since I sometimes get hundreds a day, I hadn't been sorting through them, and I missed a few e-mails. Then Yahoo started getting flagged by my friends' jobs as blocked addresses, and they stopped getting my e-mails. All-in-all - very unreliable.
I kept the Yahoo address, though, and continue to use it for on-line shopping, surveys, and other internet-y things I like to do (like Zogby surveys. I love doing Zogby surveys.)
I started a new, paid service, e-mail for my "important" stuff. I was very happy with hte way it was working, b/c whenever anything on line wanted an e-mail address, I gave it the Yahoo, and only give the other, truly primary address, to those who I have hand-picked as worthy. No junk mail!
Somehow, an evil Loan Consolidation Place (as in law school loans) caught wind of my REAL e-mail address, and I'm getting 3 e-mails a day saying, "our records indicated you've graduated now! Please call us ASAP to reduce your payments!"
No. I won't. Leave me alone. I hate you. |

"Thank you for keeping in touch. Perhaps your records also show that I graduated from law school and I am anxiously looking forward to practicing my newly acquired skills... on you! If you continue to contact me at this email address, or by phone, I shall, with the fullest weight of the law, sue your company back to the stone age. Consider this a cease and desist and let's all get along with our lives, okayY Super."
