This speaks for itself – it’s one of the best form letter / Wikipedia consulted / broken English SPAM messages I’ve seen in awhile. You know it’s legit because the dude’s name is in quotations. That’s so official I don’t even do it. U.S. Department of the Treasury 1500 Pennsylvania Avenue, NW Washington, D.C. Website: http://www.treasury.gov… Continue reading Intriguing Spam

How Long Should a Fitbit One Sleep Wristband Last?
I’ve been a fan of the Fitbit since the first tracker was introduced two years ago. I upgraded to the Ultra when it came out, and upgraded to the One when it was released last year (My fat wrist means I probably won’t be going to the Flex anytime soon though!). Recently the sleep wristband… Continue reading How Long Should a Fitbit One Sleep Wristband Last?
Heart Defects Happen, Intersexuality Does Not.
Recently a friend of mine was diagnosed with a severe heart defect which she had to have open heart surgery to correct. She’s doing better now, but her illness got me thinking about how, as a society, we perceive birth differences. We hear about those with birth defects fairly regularly, and we understand that sometimes… Continue reading Heart Defects Happen, Intersexuality Does Not.
Ladies, If Your Man Doesn’t Want Sex, Just Drug and/or Rape Him
A few months ago I posted about finding a forum post (Which I’ll link to if you want to read the entire thread) which majorly creeped me out. Long story short: Woman’s husband doesn’t have a very active sex drive (or maybe just motivation to have sex with her). She asks for advice. Amid some… Continue reading Ladies, If Your Man Doesn’t Want Sex, Just Drug and/or Rape Him
OK, This is Sorta Creepy When You Think About It
Recently I’ve been working out and trying to get back on my diet (err… Reduced Calorie Intake Plan – RCIP, remember?). One of the sites I use to track my information also has a forum for members, and I sometimes scan the list of topics just to see what’s going on. It’s there that I… Continue reading OK, This is Sorta Creepy When You Think About It
Experts Rehearse Too!
I’ve always found stage musicians interesting. As someone who played music (poorly) for 8 years in school, I don’t know how I could ever know 1 song ‘by heart’, let alone dozens needed for a live stage show. Yes, I know that it’s possible that you could have music ready for some parts (i.e. keyboards),… Continue reading Experts Rehearse Too!
An Influential Drinker Reviews Lipton Tea & Honey Mango Pineapple Iced Green Tea
This is a story that begins with a very odd little service / company named Klout. In their own words… Our friendships and professional connections have moved online, making influence measurable for the first time in history. When you recommend, share, and create content you impact others. Your Klout Score measures that influence on a scale… Continue reading An Influential Drinker Reviews Lipton Tea & Honey Mango Pineapple Iced Green Tea
The 8 Types of People You Meet On The NYC Subway
I’ve ridden the NYC Subway (Specifically the #1 train) fairly frequently over my 3 years working here. In that time I’ve identified a number of subway ‘types’ – certain prototypical New Yorkers that comprise your average subway train. Here’s a brief list of them. The Apathetic Notice the absolute vacant look on this poor pregnant… Continue reading The 8 Types of People You Meet On The NYC Subway
