Email hacked>:(

Freakin' spammers!!

My email was hacked yesterday and some of you Pelicans on my contact list may have been sent crap from that address.

Sorry about that.

This is JUST what I needed given the week I'm having.

Put a number in the middle of your password, makes it a lot harder to hack...

This has been happening a lot for the past year or so. I get hammered with them all day long, from dozens of past customers.
A lot of people don't seem to realize that their accounts are actually being hacked and sending out email... they're thinking the headers are forged....until they go into their sent mail box and see all the emails being sent out.
When I get them, I immediately try to contact the customer and let him know what's been happening. In most cases, it's a phone call.

Thanks for the email Wayne, I love you too, but I don't want to have gay sex with you.

I'll be sending out my new email address over the weekend.

I'm feeling fine now, Art. Mentally exhausted but no other problems.
