Nice girls want to chat with me

I don’t know if it’s because of my sparkling personality, or the fact that I’m a big-time newspaper publisher, but I’ve been inundated with a dozen or more emails a day from “nice” girls that want to “chat” with me.

I don’t want to make any of you jealous, but that’s nearly 400 “nice” girls a month. Not too bad for a funny looking fellow who gets around on a bicycle, eh?

One thing they all have in common – besides having great taste – is that they all write that they’re “bored” or “tired,” without exception. I guess I have some sort of character flaw that attracts only bored or tired women, at least over the internet.

Another common trait is that they all email me from an email address other than their own, and they all write “I am writing not from my personal email.” They’re probably using someone else’s email because they’re jet-setting around the world, staying in lavish hotels, and fantasizing about chatting with me.

I haven’t had time to correspond with any of them, nor would I know what to write even if I did. It’s just nice to know that there are so many “nice” girls out there interested in me should I get a hankering from some forbidden fruit.

All I get are Nigerian Internet café scammers who want to deposit $18 million in my bank account if I give them my personal info.

It was like this at the Arcata Union, too. Jack still has all the fun.

Ha ha. Funny post Jack, probably because it hits so close to home. Jude gets emails every day from companies offering to help him drastically cut those extra pounds. His email is inundated with them every day. Mine is usually from Canadian drug company discounts or viagra.
The spammers kind of missed the mark on both counts.

LOL! Jack. I love the names they come up with.

Years ago, I let my son get a hotmail address. I didn't want to enter all the info you have to put in for a minor, so we signed him up as a 46 year old male. I got an address the same day, but as female. I got one or two spams a month. He, like you, had a full inbox every day. Target audience and all.
