FleaBay, perhaps? That's where my old mail address leaked out over some careless seller.

I have lived with several Zen masters - all of them were cats.

His last invention was an evil Lasagna. It didn't kill anyone, and it actually tasted pretty good.

it never happened to me. I hardly get junk email. gmail is very good at getting rid of the junk mail.

I suspect their is an issue/bug with their junk email code, but who knows.

Have you updated your domain registry information lately?
I've been spam-free for years but I have to register email address for contact with domain registry and within 24 hours I started getting spam on that email address. The bots are terrible.

Gmail had their system messed up so bad recently that it thought some inboxes didn't exist at all (and I've seen it first-hand, when replying to gmail senders).

Maybe in some restore process, they had to nuke some spam rules and junk is now getting through while it's re-learning to make the distinction between junk and legit mail...

Pure speculation from my part. Who knows.

What's worse than being discovered by aliens?

Perhaps it's being discovered by us. We are not quite that far yet, but guess where we found a really interesting radio signal.

The universe being what it is, and the laws of physics being what they are, it would be more surprising not to receive this sort of stuff.

You mean a signal on a frequency that is used for communication with sattellites because there is no natural activity on that frequency. And one on a narrow band as a bonus? I would expect it to be more human origin. Things might get interesting if they can rule that out.

Really? How do you know?

CodeWraith19-Dec-20 6:38

Not that we could not be surprised, but I would pick a frequency that's out of the way of the local natural fusion reactor in the solar system. And, to a lesser degree, also to avoid any interaction of that fusion reactor with planets' atmospheres.

That, or someone yelling "Keep quiet! They are spying on us again!"

After all, they might already know that we have an Empire. And a Federation, Death Stars, Terminators, Jedi, Sith. All of that might be heading their way if we notice them.

Sort of a play on:

Bad girls go everywhere.

If you can keep your head while those about you are losing theirs, perhaps you don't understand the situation.
