Don't get caught Phishing
By Phishing I mean email that seems to be from a reputable source telling you to "confirm your account information". Not fun with the jam band.
I just received an email from "PayPal" saying that I have to update my account information or my account will be deactivated. Thing is, the email they sent this to is one that I made up solely for AN. I haven't used it anywhere else.
The email, and most of the URLs, look legit. The action URL goes somewhere else, though, and probably will do nasty things to your machine if you go there. Double bad nasty if you actually give them any valuable information.
Don't get caught in the Phishnet!
This Phish email was sent to the address I created for AN. I thought it might be relevant to post a warning here, too.

I personally am dying for the day
oh do i miss Trey, Mike, Fish, and Page. But alas i will see Trey and Mike in a few weeks in Atlanta and Raleigh :)
Wonder if there are any 'heads' on the A's team. My guesses would start with Danny Haren.

It will happen someday.

NICE pun Jeepers
Hopefully it's a clean comeback and they can really put the appropriate time and energy into it.
I don't need 75% phish. Or Phish with an oblique strain....

Meow!
I'd yell Marco, and MrsNotJD would yell Scutaro, whenever he'd get up to bat. I'd also don the Ronnie Mac wig and yell "Fear the Clown" when he'd get up to bat.
We'll be at the game this evening in 107 again.
