This morning I got a fairly clever message purporting to be
from my ISP that my e-mail was going to be shut down for three days "for misuse". I was immediately suspicious because it was in "Bulk Mail" = Spam, and some of the
English was unprofessional.
And the attachement was a gif. So I deleted it immediately.

Dr Bill, I just got an E-mail from my ISP warning us about spam/viruses/worms, and reminding us how we can be sure if the message is legit or not. Good on you for setting up a Bulk Mail folder, and for immediately deleting.

Dear AS: When Yahoo took over PacBell, they changed the e-mail, so that I get mail in Bulk, and in an Inbox. Not my doing. In a way it is a joke, as they are not separated in
any useful way. I get private messages in both places. Only thing good about it is after running down the list of BULK items, I can with one stroke check them all to be deleted by one more stroke. But I knew Yahoo would not put one of their messages in the BULK group.

It's when your slef starts talking back that you have to start worrying. Them slefs can get mighty uppity if you let them talk to you.

My slef is a picture of humility, thank you!  He slefs around in his modest demeanor all the time...sleffing, sleffing, sleffing away...and for what? "Nice guys finish last." --Leo Durocher But a true slef does what he does bcause he knows it's the *right* thing to do. Thank you.

It's okay if you talk to yourslef as long as you don't answer yourslef in different voices.

There was a wise man who talked to himself because he preferred an intelligen audience.
