Here’s an email I just got…
I’m not really sure why anyone would mistake me for an estate lawyer, but uhm… apparently word is out that I moonlight as legal counsel. 🙂 I would guess the deceased son probably isn’t really high up on the line of succession… but that’s just a guess.
Kind of funny… {shrug}
An email I got today (the whole thing)…
What kind of whacko *wants* spam? If there was a way I could send you all my spam, you certainly would be welcome to it, but I’m not going to sift through and manually send you the 50,000 or so spams I get per month, sorry. 🙂
You know what’s an awesome feeling? When you have one of those nights when you play some poker and you can’t be beaten. 🙂
It’s fun when you dominate poker night (especially since it happens far and few between for me).
Here’s an interesting email…
I have no clue what this dude is talking about, but I Googled “nookingtons”, and apparently it’s a store that exists only in a Nintendo game… hehe
//en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nookingtons
I guess it goes in waves… because last December, I was just saying I need to be more dorky. Well, I just looked over my blog from the last few weeks, and it seems I’ve inadvertently become very good at that… with all the, “blade servers this… MySQL that… load balancers this…” stuff.
The new servers and equipment are going to be installed tomorrow, so hopefully maybe I’ll have something a little less dorky to write about soon. Hmmm… maybe once the servers are in place, I’ll break down their cardboard boxes and have a break dancing contest on them. That’s the kind of stuff that cool kids do, right?
Another random email (in it’s entirety)…
What in the hell? How did someone “steal” your company, and what exactly did you want me to do about it for you?
I had breakfast with Matt on Saturday, and on our way back to my place, some lady fell asleep at the wheel and rear-ended us pretty hard. No screeching tires or anything to warn us of the impact, she just unexpectedly slammed into the back of us. We were in a big car (GMS Yukon thank God), stopped at a stop light and she hit us so hard that we hit the car in front of us hard enough that the car in front of us hit the car in front of them. Weeeee…. dominos! 🙂
I took a picture of the lady’s car with my cell phone, but hopefully someone will send me a better picture of the car and I’ll post it.
Anyway, amazingly enough I feel fine. I was a little stiff the next morning (yesterday), but it just felt like I had a good day of hard snowboarding the day before or something. And today, I don’t even have that.
So I’m thinking maybe I’m invincible… no really. 🙂
I had to sign a “model release form” today. Haha!
I’m a model now.
Another random email (in it’s entirety)…
I can’t even think of anything to say about this one. But I *do* know it was cracking me up (really). heh
Although I must say… $200k/year is a truly amazing amount of income… 😉
I was having lunch with Tom today and we started blabbing about something kind of funny…
You know how pretty much anything can be “traded” (stocks, bonds, resources, etc.)? It’s just all based on the perceived future value of something. So wouldn’t it be interesting to essentially issue shares of yourself. Shareholders would essentially own a percentage of whatever ideas/patents/products/income, etc. that you generate over your lifetime. Basically they would be buying part of you in the hopes that you do something cool in your life so they get some upside with their investment.
The funniest part would be to watch your stock go down when you leave the country on vacation or get sick, and then come back up when you are in the country and healthy. 🙂
Who want’s to buy a piece of Shawn’s Brain? We’ll call it SBrain, Inc… 1 employee that can never be fired or quit. 🙂
Someone just let me know that digitalpoint.com is in the top 100 most trafficked domains for English language sites (#99 specifically). Hmmm… that’s pretty cool. 🙂
There are some pretty cool architectural designs from the old Soviet Union that never came to fruition…

Here’s one I got (in it’s entirety like always)…
Okay… I can understand someone hating my site… I’m sure he/she isn’t the only one. But This dude hates my site so much that he’s going to go milk his cow. Huh? That really will show me I guess. {shrug}
I really would like to meet some of the people that are on the sending end of these emails. 🙂
That’s the whole email… I don’t know why this dude (maybe a girl, I dunno) feels like they need to email me telling me they are not going to “have sex with a film”. I never asked them to, and I certainly wouldn’t recommend it. Would probably cause chaffing anyway, especially if it was VHS vs. DVD.
Here’s another random one…
Say what dude??
Another random email I got today (in it’s entirety)…
Do I look like “Grand Master Hacker Shawn” or something? Why don’t you call Yahoo and ask them how to hack their whole site… then you can access all the Yahoo IDs you want.
If anyone is tossing and turning at night trying to figure out what to get me for my birthday (in September.. heh), here’s an excellent idea. An infrared emitter for emergency vehicles that will turn traffic lights green for you (that of course is a joke, I’m sure you can’t buy one… but it would be neat).

This article is crap… this dude might BE a ninja, but he certainly isn’t the last. First of all, I’m a ninja (I completed my training already), and so is Bobby. So I know two ninjas without even looking for them.
Chilling words from a shockingly fit 76-year-old man who bills himself as the world’s last ninja and stocks his training chamber with weapons such as throwing stars and nunchucks. Especially to a neophyte whose closest brush with martial arts was watching Bruce Lee matinees as a kid.
As I cautiously raise the sword with a taut two-handed samurai grip, my sparring partner gingerly points to Hatsumi. I avert my eyes for a split second – and WHAM! The next thing I know, I’m staring at the rafters.

Another weird email… Am I getting more than normal??
I’m starting to think that maybe everyone in the world thinks I know everything about everything, because I have no clue who this person is, and I certainly don’t have anything to do with laying out pages.
Here’s a good one I got today. 🙂
That is the whole email. Obviously this person is a mastermind at social engineering and phishing. Thankfully I didn’t fall for it though. That was close… {phew!}
I have no clue what this lady is blabbing about, but apparently the other lady didn’t like it too much. 🙂
Lucky number 13 since I started posting random emails I get. 🙂
That’s it… that’s the whole email. hah My website is mysterious…
We have become “too safe” here in the United States I think. In other countries (Russia for example), you see stuff like this. 🙂

Another good random email I got today…
What in the *hell* are you talking about dude?
Julien sent me a couple pictures from Saint Patrick’s Day, so I tossed them up in the photo gallery if anyone is really bored.
This guy looks a lot like the guy that thrashed me at golf recently – gee, I look pretty serious too
“There is no such thing as fun for the whole family.” Bahahaha! Caught groping Julien, augh!
I might actually look better in Anne’s jacket than Anne does 🙂 (maybe)
I’m a bank now too it seems…
Please answer.
Just send me your money (cash only please), and I’ll see what I can do.
Here’s another one (in it’s entirety)…
Hmmm… don’t know who you are, but are you uhm… drunk?
More of them… 🙂
Why would anyone bother to email you just to wish their misfortune of insomnia on you? Bastards!
This is a nicely choreographed break dancing routine… Must have practiced for years to get this one right.
This guy is lonely… 🙁
That’s the entire email… nothing else. Maybe if you would tell me a little about yourself, your desires in life or whatever else, I could be your one true, real, good friend.
Apparently I’m also a nutritionist now…
Eat a bowl of mayonnaise for breakfast… that should help you gain some weight.
Those crazy Chinese are always innovating! 🙂
What the hell is this person sending me this for?
Uhm… do I look like the credit card fraud auction center to you dude? I don’t even know what a BPO is. I don’t think you are allowed to use other people’s credit cards without their permission, so what good would a bunch of other people’s credit cards do for me? Nada.
Someone went through a lot of trouble to recreate the Simpson’s opening sequence… 🙂
