Spammers, Beware!

I just came from my e-mail, where I found a very kind letter from our Gaming Outpost site administrator informing me that I have been promoted: I now have the power to smite Spam posts on articles I did not write, in addition to doing so on those I did write. Since oft is the occasion on which I find such posts and wish I could do something about them, I am pleased now to be able to smite them, marking them as Spam and condemning the posters to the ignominious title of Spammer. After I finished here last night I had to drive to the hospital to retrieve one of the two houseguests who had gone there earlier. He was the driver, but he had driven the patient’s car, and the patient was being admitted. I again watched the beginning of Primer last night, but shut it down so I could get some sleep–a wise choice, it happens, because at five thirty this morning my wife awoke me with the realization that the son of the man in the hospital would have to be on a school bus at five after six, and I’m just the guy to do it. I went back to bed after my own son was also en route, and did not get up so early as I’d hoped. However, my slated trips to help my mother-in-law and take our weekend guest home have been delayed, as my wife is using the vehicle to run errands for the hospitalized houseguest, and there is still only the one vehicle. I have a stack of notes to myself, but all are things I am supposed to do prospectively, and none the sort of thing I would include here anyway, so I guess that’s the full report. Here’s hoping I can get through the forum stuff easily. –M. J. Young
