Funny. There have been a few such pictures floating around lately. They are HOTTTTTT!

Yeah, I went Run Lola Run and it looks HORRIBLE. I LOVE IT. I feel incognito/neat-o.

But it really does not look good.

So, Lone Star, now you see that evil will always triumph because good is dumb.

Is there anything I can do in the event it falls into an unscrupulous person's hands? Will a credit agency monitor my credit for suspicious activity for the next few months?

Based upon the flyers included in my many credit card bills, some banks offer "credit monitoring" -- essentially, they will notify you if any of the three credit agencies report that "you" are trying to get credit, borrow money, buy a Hummer, etc.

I never signed up, because I have such awful credit (in 1998, I really thought that WebVan was such a great deal that I got a fourth mortgage on Not Bob Manor to buy more stock) that any would-be identity thief would be SOL.

Good luck. Try not to stress too much about it.

I'm a spaz and lost an envelope I was about to mail on the way to work. Unfortunately the envelope is addressed to my insurance company and contains my SSN. Although the city is full of good people that will pick up my envelope and stick it in the mailbox, it's also full of unscrupulous characters who will open it up and use my SSN for nefarious purposes.

The form inside the envelope only has my SSN and address (which is soon to change) - it doesn't have any credit card info, passwords or anything like that.

Any help would be appreciated. thanks.

You should find out whether you can put a fraud alert in place at the credit agencies. They might monitor activity for you, and if they didn't, a card issuer would certainly be willing to do this for you -- for a fee, of course. Given that your address is soon to change, and forwarding is unreliable, you should try to take some extra care, because you are even less likely to receive notice that something had been opened in your name.

You might also be able to put a block on credit reporting to new creditors without your consent -- as I understand it, mortage brokers and lenders often do this (purportedly as a precaution) while financing is pending. When I was in the middle of a refi I applied for a Corporate Amex through the firm and to my surprise, Amex wanted to pull my credit reports, but couldn't do so without my consent because the lender put a block on access.

In theory, then, nobody could open a new account that required a credit check without your being notified.

And like Not Bob said, don't overstress about it. I don't think identity thieves rely on accidental discovery of social security numbers; they probably prefer to steal them en masse from the computer networks of major financial institutions or from dumpsters of major NY apartment buildings, and we can't do anything about the former anyway.

Nonsense. Go with some latex or leather, and you are set.

Forgive my "wonking", but this must be the "progressive" in "progressive Catholic".

it not QUITE that bright. But bright enough that I got looks walking into work. Then again, I forgot to put pants on. Tough to tell what was eliciting the looks. A construction worker seemed to like it though. The lack of pants, I think.

I'm just asking.

All the time. In fact 6 out of 10 people who have sex on the first date marry each other
So take your pants off.

What do you guys think? Too direct?

I'm far from being a model/actress in LA (and therefore the type he's trying to attract), but I'd never reply to this ad. Even with a thin veil of humor, he sounds like an ass.

Friday Feature: You're All Morons

Greetings and suck me. I'm Jeff Woods, maintenance programmer for Star Wars Galaxies: An Empire Divided. As a maintenance programmer it is my responsibility to manage existing code, write bug fixes, integrate new code while analyzing its impact on existing functionality and be the brunt of your jokes and flames on the forums. Suck me. I'm writing this Friday Feature because I'm about sick of your, the valued customer's, torrent of never ending sass-mouth and ill-informed crap. I repeat, suck me. Suck me long. Suck me hard.

Being a maintenance programmer is such a privileged joy and honor. I get to spend anywhere from eight to twelve, sometimes as many as sixteen straight hours a day locked in an eight by eight cube grinding my ass out writing code that you freaks don't appreciate. Did I mention you can suck me? What I love best is you forum jockeys lamenting the game code while you most likely work in a porn theater as a janitor or mooch off my tax dollars as an unemployed turd, sitting on a couch with no cushion with Chef Boyardee stains all over your wife beater. If you think you can write better netcode I invite you to come down and have a go, after you suck me of course....freak.

It's been awhile since I've seen a meltdown like this. Gotta love the internet and career questionable venting. This isn't as bad as when a stunt coordinator I know got fired and went on a three day alcohol/drug bender and someoen had to go to his house and forcibly take him away from his computer to stop him from venting more, but it's pretty funny.

I'm not sure that this guy is someone who snapped as much as he is someone who just really really needs a blow job.
