Sorry, no time for chat! Shalini and Mitch are in town for the Denver Film Festival and I’ve got places to be (I’ve got the day off from work). We had a lovely dinner at Rioja last night. I’m looking forward to seeing some interesting films today & tomorrow and hopefully reporting back here on that. Flasshe Out.
Jogged Today: No, slept in.
Today’s Weight: 164.2 lbs
Lunch Yesterday: Homemade ham sandwich.
Pet Peeve of the Day: My spam count, which has been hovering between 40-80 e-mails a day in the quarantine, rose to over 200 yesterday. Someone new must’ve gotten hold of my e-mail address.
Latre.

I’ve had bursts of spam hitting thousands per HOUR in the past – it’s not so much your address getting out sometimes as it is, a new spam tool getting out in the field. Most of the To: addresses on mine are random, or they’re bounces from someone else with one of my addrs in the From: field.
But I’ve gotten just about zero spam since GMail began offering free IMAP and I switched all my domains over to it. It’s not super-fast, but my old Email server account was based in the U.S. and wasn’t exactly blazing along from here in Melbourne either, so the net result is $10/month less and a better web client…

Is the “vegetarian” in this post’s title just a ploy to get more suckers to click through to your blog?

Did it work?

Nah. And they didn’t return either.

Ironically, one of our good friends with a long history of unhealthy lifestyle choices has recently quit smoking, cut out sugar and gone vegetarian in rapid succession – and is, as I write this, in the hospital awaiting tests on some mysterious pains and lumps in her abdominal region. (it’s after midnight and my wife went with her to make sure she was taken seriously by the medical personnel)
I sometimes think going vegetarian is so un-Australian that the cultural DNA fights back somehow…
