Last.fm telling me how unoriginal I’ve been this week.

I’m not sure I’ve ever seen the value of Google’s “intersperse unrelated searches” feature. I searched for “holistic” hoping to drag up a Wikipedia article or something (which I did, it’s the first result), and was amused to see that Google thinks I should probably be looking for “dictionary” as well (see results 3, 4, and 5).
1) According to Hodge Jennifer, “”over 75% of all women need a longer woody to satisfy their desire!”
2) My PayPal and eBay accounts have been suspended 935 times so far this year, but both still work okay.
3) Someone is willing to give me a $339,000 loan today, even though I have a bad credit record. Approval takes “only 1 minute.”
4) Daniele K says I should “Try VI@GR@…..It is fabulous.”
5) I have won several lotteries:
We are pleased to inform you of the result of Europe National Lottery which was held on the 19th, DECEMBER 2006. Your e-mail address attached to e-ticket number: 834509819, with Prize Number: 237359446 drew a prize of 1,000,000.00 (One Million Euros).
6) There’s such a thing as ’social stigmata’, as confirmed by Ted Shannon: “Did you know obesity kiIIs more and more people every year? We know you hate the extra pounds, the ugly look and the social stigmata attached to fat people.”
7) Folvin is looking for love: “I feel like I am a little lost kitten. I don’t have a strong man’s shoulder to lay on. I am writing to you as I want to find a husband to live all life with him only!”
8) Supposedly I am asking a lot of people about “Canadian pharmacy shops” according to e-mails I keep receiving.
Ten years ago I would have been happy to get mails like these.

Just testing that ecto, my desktop weblog client, works with this new setup and uploads images, etc, correctly. I’ve placed this post into a category called “Minutiae” which, by default, is NOT included in the RSS feed. This is so I can post tiny thoughts and silly items like this into that category without annoying loyal subscribers.
