Back Again!

Good news! I seem to have acquired a relatively consistent and easy to obtain Internet connection, meaning I now actually have the time to post semi-regularly on here, seeing as how I'll be using my own PC from here on out.

As a celebratory measure, I've decided to share my latest undertaking to the minute percentage of the world that ever happens to view this blog. For those of you who have ever heard of 419Eater, you don't need to read this. For those of you who haven't, let me explain. 419Eater is a community of tech-savvy people who spend their time and resources in an attempt to waste the time and resources of others; "others" being online fraud artists. All those emails that fill your spam inbox with promises of wealth of fame for a small fee are a gold mine for people like us (we're appropriately called scambaiters). By leading scammers on and getting them to perform complicated steps and a virtually infinite number of favors for an American payoff, not only do we get to revel in our creativity and joy, but we also distract them from targeting otherwise unsuspecting web-surfers. It's good fun for a good cause.

"That smile speaks volumes..."

Back to the point, I recently signed up with 419Eater and I'm already working on four separate fraud artists. I will certainly keep you updated on anything I happen to receive that results in my tear ducts shriveling from so much laughter.

Lack of Dedication

Clearly I'm not as good at sticking to what I say as I should be. This blog has very nearly come close to suffering a slow and painful death in the graveyard that we all know as the world wide web, like countless other blogs and websites. Something about the Internet is unique; it's a great place to quickly post your ideas and get them out to the masses, but it soon becomes such a mundane task that it's not worth doing and we all forget about it. The quality of being able to post something in a minute or less actually seems to work to our disadvantage. There isn't really a point to getting on the Internet solely to put a quick post, and so I'm forced to do so only when I'm online for something else, which isn't all that often.

That being said, I refuse to promise weekly posts--or even monthly. But I will promise to come and write you all a lovely and compelling piece on whatever is going on in the world whenever i happen to be online and feel like doing so. Good day to you.
