Spammers are getting lazy…

I got this 419 scam today, and it seems like they could have put a little more effort into making it sound plausable..

ATTN

I WANT TRANSFER $10M OF OUR CUSTOMER THAT DIED INTO YOUR ACCOUNT.

-Matthew Eric

C’mon, am I not worth the extra effort? Where’s the ousted general? The presidential widow? The well-wishes of my health?

Well fine! If they aren’t going to do it right, I’m not going to play the game either. Oh well – your loss!

Podcasts I like

People asked what they can get me for my birthday, and I said ‘nothing’ since I really have everything I want. Then I realized, what I really enjoy is listening to my variety of podcasts -its escapism and multi-tasking at the same time (usually washing dishes or driving carpool). So here’s a list of podcasts that I listen to, and you can make a donation to them for me to keep them going for me to enjoy in the future!

The Radio Adventures of Doctor Floyd (become an imagination ranger!)
Escape Pod
PodCastle
The DrabbleCast
Betty in the Sky with a Suitcase!
Coverville
The Acapodcast
Anything by Mur Lafferty
Anything by Christiana Ellis
Numerous NPR Shows: Wait, Wait, Don’t Tell me; Car Talk; Future Tense..

Even if you don’t donate to these shows, I recommend giving them a listen and maybe you’ll get hooked too.
