Ouch! Stay away from crushlink. Don't go near it.

Ouch! Stay away from crushlink. Don't go near it. You've been warned. Its entire purpose is to get you signed up to every internet lotto and spam site out there. These guys are ruthless - I've dealt with several of them before. It's a mushrooming effect that will triple the amount of spam in your mailbox in a week and those that provide an opt-out link (rare) sign you up for more spam when you try and unsusbcribe. I'm lucky this isn't one of my primary email addresses. I'll probably have to nuke the email account to get free of this one, as I had to do last time.

I'm debating whether the fact that it's Friday should be cause for relief or not. Last weekend was hard labor. Don't think I'll work that hard this weekend, but there are a lot of tasks remaining.

Another Survivor series over. I think the appeal is that it's the ultimate soap opera. Drama, relationships, betrayal; that kind of stuff. Never cared much for soap operas.
