And Your Point Is...?

You have no power here!

Friday my Twitter account was hacked.  For those of you who follow me, you might have received this message from me:

" Hey. somebody is saying bad stuff about you here"  and then a bogus link followed it.  Well I should have listened to my instinct and texted  my bestie Emmymom--cause she's got my back. She would have told me DON'T click that!!! I also know that Mimi's got my back too, but stupid Verizon didn't save her in my contact list--that's another story.  I digress.  I clicked the link!!!!  GAH!   Well that opened a can a worms and it sent those messages to many of you that follow me!  Well I am glad you checked with me first!!  See that is smart!  I had to change my password twice, and my email plus revoke privileges from Twitter.  It's finally under control.

I just have one question for the hackers.  What is their point?  No private information is available in my account.  I just don't understand it.  What is in it for them personally?

I got 2 of those from you, I think, but I recognized them for what they were and didn't click on them. It's been rampant lately on Twitter and in email!

A Leave of Absence

Image
I just wanted let you all know that I am taking a (short) leave of absence. I was feeling under the weather last Friday, and Saturday I was a lump. By Monday I felt almost normal again. Tuesday even better! By Wednesday night the whole left side of my face felt completely packed. Today(Thursday) I am at death's door. Or maybe it's at mine! All I know is, I haven't felt this crappy in a long time. I spent the day at my mom's and mostly slept. Thanks Mom. Now Rich is home and he is running the show. I shall return...as soon as I stop feeling like this.

Dancing with the Stars---Dead

Image
That is how the show was introduced on Halloween night.  "Dead, from Hollywood, it's Dancing with the Stars!"  with your host, Tom Boooo-geron! Oh and Brooke who didn't get a play on her name.  Tonight, the dances are all spooktacularly themed.  Plus there is also a team dance. David and Kym 1-800-868-3406 David and Kym are dancing The Cha Cha and David wants to add magic to the act, so they bring in a professional magician to help with some basic tricks.  I enjoyed their Cha Cha.  It was fun. Len said it had  lots of tricks and treats and that David turned himself into a dancer! Bruno told him he has got the prestige, and that he was a natural at turning tricks. Carrie Ann said his improvement was phenomenal. She said he was polished and finessed, but that he needed to work on his holds. Scores: Carrie Ann:  8 Len: 8 Bruno: 8 Total: 24  JR and Karina 1-800-868-3410 JR and Karina are dancing the Tango to Ghostbusters. Why do they give such ch
