This morning, a message was left on the answering machine of my home phone by a guy named Peter saying he was calling from The U.S. Treasury Board in Baltimore, MD.; he said the reason for his call was to let me know that they were trying to deliver a cashier's check to me at one of my old addresses and that I should call him back immediately at 876-560-6401. I ran the number through Google and see that not only is it originating from Jamaica, but that there have been many scams reported from that exchange: mrnumber.com/1-876-560As much as I would love to call this guy back and yank his chain a bit, I'm not that interested in being charged for a long-distance call just to play with him. Anyone ever hear about anything like this, possibly on The Other Message Board? |

Is it just me and my senility setting in or does anybody else on this board have trouble keeping up all the avatar and name ch-ch-changes all the time? I swear I have to sit there for several seconds to figure out who is who every time I come on board. I am afraid that when full blown dementia sets in that I am going to have to permanently retire to the porch. |

When you start yelling at the neighborhood kids to stay out of your yard, it may be time to consider hanging out elsewhere.

As the great philosopher himself (Mick Jagger) once said
"Hey hey you you get off of my lawn"
and
"My head is balding and I want to paint it bla-ack"

The intention is supposed to be similar to one of those mind exercises intended to keep the brain sharp as we head into dementia. The execution may be a bit off of the mark however. |

Beeb's and Simon's avatars are usually easier to spot - they don't ch-ch-change as often as Gordon and Beeb usually adopts the psychopath of the week (Sandusky etc.) or a current news item. Simon's usually tie into something he has posted about. Gordon, OTOH, picks some fairly random stuff.

I might have an opinion... IF I knew who the fuck any of you were! Yes, I could figure it out, if I really wanted to bother. But, frankly, I don't give a damn.
And yes, before you say it, I DID set this message board up specifically to give you the ability to be as obtuse and anonymous as you want to be. And for anyone who reads your post to ignore you as much as THEY want to! We all shine on!

Alternatively, I would imagine that quoting someone's post would probably show the underlying user name.
