Re: - urgent-
Posted in 2000
I don't frequent porn sites so wouldn't (didn't) recodnize one when I saw it. Ok, I was naive and got rooked. I was pissed off and embarr- assed -- my employer uses web-police who track where you go on the web and I was put on the spot. That said I've been on this list for about 3 weeks now and enjoy it a great deal INCLUDING THE VARIETY OF HUMOUR that is part of the regular contributions. Just gotta get wiser on the spam garbage... where is that delete key, eh ?... By-the-way, I contacted usa.com and found there is no jjbly@usa.com (originator of the spam) which probably surprises no one. have a nice day, eh ?
