Emails from the dead?

I am back. This is a short "how do you do"-type of post. I was thinking I am on drugs. I get an email yesterday and it came from me.

What the fuck?!! I do not recall sending myself an email. Maybe, it was my grandfather, whose name I share and who died in 1943, sending something from another world. Now, I am thinking how would he have access to a computer and internet connection in that other world. I am also thinking that he died well before the use of computers, how did he get to be so tech savvy. Then, I wonder, if my grandfather is sending me emails from the grave, then why the hell is my father, who used a computer and knew me, not sending me emails from the grave. What kind of father is he? Won't send his eldest messages from the beyond.

You can see how I would be in mid-freakout. Then I read the message and it is addressed from a friend WO. WO and I go way back, with connections to grade school, junior high, high school, university and our fraternal affiliation. He is looking to get us out for an evening of alcohol consumption. I am in by the way. Yet, he did it all under the cloak of my name.

There was a reply by JLC as to me sending things out. I was just as shocked, no more so since I thought the dead were trying to contact me (they like their own kind I hear) by that. How WO hijacked my email and stuff, I will never know. He is one crafty dude. I mean, one minute he is growing algae and studying it and then he is hijacking people's email addresses. I wonder if he was able to lift my credit cards. Good on him if he did.

Well, that is all I have to say. We still have to come up with a date that works for us all, but that will come. Stu will be there, too, unless he punks out....or is afraid of Willie. Ciao!
