Yeah, but like AOL is the only one who has had this kind of issue. And as you say, it was not like Marshalls/TJMaxx where it was credit card data.

Yeah,

... I do get pithy when it comes to identity or account access theft. My spouse and I have been targets on several occasions - and it amazes me how they get "in". The last occassion was with one of my charge cards which has had NO ACTIVITY on it in months if not years. Out of the blue I get a call from the company asking if I had recently bought any computer equipment ... or if I bought from a house appiance company on line... to which I replied "no". And they said they were cycling a reversal and reissuing a new account number to me.

We've also had an AM EX account with several months of telephone calling card calls amounting to some severn or 8 hundred ... which I did not notice on the statements (at the time). I just paid it and moved on to the next thing. Then once a quarter or so I review my statements and found the wrongful charges. Am EX was good about reversing the whole thing over several months - but I still was agitated over it. Now I've pared down my cards to a small number and carry no balances on anything.

We had a friend who kept large sums in their draft accounts ... mid 5 figures. And once they had that account compromised and they did not catch it till several 10s of thousands were taken. They LOST OUT as the bank would not help them since it had been several months of losses. AND... oneof our neighbors had thier checking account compormised too. Less money then 10s of thousands but they were pretty ticked off just the same. I now maintain minimal money in my draft accounts. It's a hassel to constantly run transfers - but that's my routine now.

Fortunately, my spouse and I have never actually been stung for a real loss.... and we do indeed count ourselves lucky.

You'll be the first person that I've cruised with more than once
Maybe we'll get some of those great servers that I keep hearing about
BTW
My family thinks I'm nuts getting so excited about the new castaway club cards that came in the mail Did you get yours yet ?

Yup!

This one is good as well http://allearsnet.com/blogs/debwills/ and http://schiffyinthemed.blogspot.com/. Am I the only one feeling the ship rocking thru out these reports?It seems the one common thread is the rough sailing

I read that spammers use e-mail address generators so it's pure chance whether you get some spam but there was only so much I could take with continuous e-mails offering me Viagra !!!

Oh my Yahoo acct gets over 2000 spams a month. Sometimes more. My Gmail doesn't get any and my Outlook has only gotten one type junk mail. Oh course the Yahoo is the one I use for everything and the OE is business only. Gmail I hardly give out.
I think every High School kid worth their weight in computer skills knew how to get into any AOL chat and pretend they needed a security check. That used to be the big scam back in the 90's. There were also websites published on the chatboards and they had all the credit card info. What's sad is how many companies actually store this info and never purge it making everyone at risk.

Todd, I LOVED the pics.
I am really tired and my feet haven't yet thawed out from the frigid temps at work. Ketch ya all tomorrow................Nite

Did anyone notice the flag CJS was flying in the last scene?

Yes I did.

I see I've missed some sort of conversation about underwater cameras. I have the whole kit and kaboodle with the SeaLife Reefmaster set up, strobe and the whole bit.....but it's awfully bulky to haul around.
I am in LOVE with the new camera I got about a year ago. It's the Pentax Optio W10 underwater digital....and only the size of an average "pocket" digital. The pics are pretty darn good, though, and much easier to carry around.

Stace, I think that is the same camera that I have. I really like it.

Happy Birthday D'Quan / DS MK2thcleaner!!!

the birthday wish. Hope it was happy

 

[brack]

May I humbly submit that you pull the addresses of hard to reach people and DUMP AOL... and go to something free like Gmail...​

AOL is free now too. I got my AOL email many years ago when it could only be 8 characters. I still use it and others on AOL. It has evolved a lot.

They're gonna have the rumor mills aflame pretty soon if so. I thought this edition of POTC was pretty good. A shade long but the enthusiasm in the crowd here was strong. Applause and lots of folks in pirate attire - but nothing like having Todd in Vegas.

So you think the soonest they would bring out another POTC edition is 2009? I think they'll try and spring one on us in 2008! Unless you think it cannot be done that quick.​

 

[captaincrash]

Yes I did.

May I ask what the deal is with CJSs' flag in the closing scene? I don't recall what the particulars were.

Thanks in advance...

 

[PBader]

...thanks justm., those are great pics., we going
to look at that camera....as we have not done well in this
area,


....dear pbager, .....your reference took me back...way back ,
to our dating-honeymoon....bascially, that's what we did...eat,
drink & be merry..after 2years, leading to marriage... &
* that's translated into putting on more wt. than i ever been. &
sorta explained why my kids didn't recognized me...in my wedding pics.
, ohhh but the fun.

cpt. crash? games people play...? have you ever played the airport
scrabble version?...my lil'miss...loves taking everything including
the kitchen sink...so the rest of us, are baggage handlers...
* one of the funniest thing happened last year...when they "selected"
my wife for body search [ ]...she was , and pointed
directly @ me..."how come you all not searching him...he looks alot
more suspicious than me."...."the game"...is taking pics., peering
behind a small mountain..."got game?"

new characters?....well i think a new story involving lil'grumpy & wives
for all the dwarfs + kiddos....taking auntie snow white, on their first
disney cruise...dressed in lime green...

Wow !!! what can I say ...It was a wild weekend here in Vegas ...But I first wanna say I want to thank my Sweet Melissa for helping me everyday with makeup and such and also to thank the great Management and Staff at the Red Rock Stations Regal Cinema , they were great in everyway ....Now on to the details ..

All in all it was a good weekend ...Im extremely exhausted but well worth it ....we raised over 1300.00 dollars and that all goes to the charity ...not bad considering that it was a dollar a picture , though some people would leave a little more ...It was there #1 fund raiser that they have ever had at the theater and they were more then thankful ....Anyway ...Hope you enjoyed my little report ...Oh and by the way ..Yes I had to deal with some crying kids ...ST'S and women including older women grouping me ...LOL


Take What you Can !!!!! Give Nothing Back !!!!

Looks like you realy enjoyed yourself. Great job with the fundraising. That sure was a lot of pics. at $1 each. We saw the movie tonight and enjoyed it.

It was his personal pirate flag flying on his "ship"

My reply has to be HIGHLIGHTED to be viewed... to allow those who have NOT seen POTC AWE to preserve the surprise of the movies' plot line....

OK...

... maybe I'm not in gear here... it's CJSs' personal flag ... and what is being implied? Am I missing something? The Pearl has sailed off in serach of the fountain of youth without Jack - but Jack has the key portion of the map in his little dinghy.
So... he's ... ???? Am I missing something???

 

[brack]

We finally saw POTC AWE yesterday and I plan to see it again (I rarely see the same movie twice at a theater) but it was that good.

I found myself really studying Mr Gibbs for costume ideas so I need to go back and see if I missed any plot parts.

I really liked the interaction of Mr Gibbs with CJS at the end. I particularly liked the fact that Mr Gibbs left with the two wenches! Gives me hope!

I don't think the flag means anything to the quest but Todd might have an idea.

OK...

.... I usually don't let on so openly of ignorance (or assumption of missing something).... but I figured here among DIS friends what's the harm. Besides, I WANT to know if I'm missing something here that pertains to the next installment of POTC.

I'll lurk in ambush of Todd to ask him when he's on line...

Thanks again for your opinion!

No harm I'm sure besides if I'm wrong then I am really in the dark!

In anticipation of our upcoming trip to CC and rainy FL weather, I purchased a waterproof bag for my camera. I have always loved taking underwater photos and surely did not want to miss out on this on our upcoming vacation. Yesterday was a nice day so off to the pool to try it out.

Yeah,

... I attribute these photos to renewing my interest in an underwwater housing for one of our digicams. They look like womderful memories... plus a UW housing would protect a digicam from rain and sand!

Thanks for sharing!
