Defcon XI here we come!

Weird piece of spam I got today:


Hello,

I'm a time traveler stuck here in 2003. Upon arriving here my dimensional warp generator stopped working. I trusted a company here by the name of LLC Lasers to repair my Generation 3 52 4350A watch unit, and they fled on me. I am going to need a new DWG unit, prefereably the rechargeable AMD wrist watch model with the GRC79 induction motor, four I80200 warp stabilizers, 512GB of SRAM and the menu driven GUI with front panel XID display.

I will take whatever model you have in stock, as long as its received certification for being safe on carbon based life forms.

In terms of payment:
I dont have any Galactic Credits left. Payment can be made in platinum gold or 2003 currency upon safe delivery of unit. Please transport unit in either a brown paper bag or box to below coordinates on Sunday July 27th at (exactly 3:00pm) Eastern Stand Time. If you miss this timeframe please email me.

42.4845467 & Longitude -71.1576157 and the ground is 101.3' above sea level.

Although those coordinates are a secure guarded area, these channels through email are never secure. Unfortunately it is the only form of communication I have right now. There is a good chance that sombody will try to redirect the signal. The unit must be teleported directly in a way
that nobody will be able to interfere with the transference.

After unit has been sent please email me at: info@federalfundingprogram.com
with payment instructions. Do not reply directly back to this email.

Thank You

He was actually wearing his just-delivered kilt in the uncropped picture, but I decided to leave that to your imagination... or spare you the imagery, if you must. Kilt pictures... coming... after Defcon. Speaking of that... time to start prepping for Defcon... it's less than 2 weeks away!!! Off to go shopping!

Friday Five

1. When was the last time you cheated?
when I didn't know any better

2. When was the last time you stole?
"
3. When was the last time you lied?
Probably very recently... when speaking to a telemarketer :) I haven't told any serious lies for a long time though.

4. When was the last time you broke or vandalized another's property?
Sometime in the past 5 years I'm sure... but I don't really have that kind of temper anymore.

5. When was the last time you hurt a loved one?
Recently. But things are better now. I'm just a faithless person sometimes.

Another Friday Thingy

So... I've decided to start doing the Photo Friday thing...why not?

Friday Five

1. Do you remember your first best friend? Who was it?
Yep. Stephanie King

2. Are you still in touch with this person?
A couple years ago, I found her email and we emailed back and forth a bit. We had not spoken since elementary school when she moved to another town... but I always thought of her... she was the one who inspired me to get into gymnastics.

3. Do you have a current close friend?
Other than my boyfriend... it would have to be my best girlfriend Alina.

4. How did you become friends with this person?
Met her in elementary school.

5. Is there a friend from your past that you wish you were still in contact with? Why?
There are a couple people from my childhood I still wonder about and would love to contact... Tim Lewis and Missie Hofman... I'd want to be in contact with them to find out how things were going for them and where life took them.

Is it just me or are those Lending Tree commercials with the plane that keeps flying by SUPER ANNOYING? Especially when you've got speakers on the ceiling. I don't know why but I find this commercial so irritating while I'm at work. I work right by the airport runways at DFW and have yet to hear a plane... I would rather not hear one on TV.

Bought a cute little green and black firebellied toad yesterday.. he's adorable! Unfortunately, it looks like I'll have to feed him live crickets. I saw him leap at a drop of water several times on the side of his aquarium, so I got excited and put a few frozen bloodworms in the tank for him to eat, but he didn't go after them, probably because they weren't moving.
