lovingbothOver the weekend, I spotted an ad for some interesting sounding sex toys, complete with an email address. As ever, I added www. to the domain and had a look. No response. OK, well some people don't have a website... let's have a look via whois and see who's behind the anonymous postal address they give.
Not registered.
So I registered it the next day, as you do (this would make a good katyha survey question!)
And the mail's come flooding in over the past two days!
Well, seven identical copies of a 'I've stolen $25m, but it's in a Nigerian bank account and I need an accomplice' spams. Plus a different one. And a ''I've stolen $35m, but it's in a South African bank account...' Amusingly, the last tw?t gives a London fax number, so it's off to the DTI with that one.
Oh, and an email asking how the ad's worked from the publisher.
{I thought I'd posted about this, but going to add a comment, I see that something obviously got in the way of actually pressing 'post'... BTW, if you think you're missing something here, it's probably because you're not on my friends list - half my posts get the friends-only tag.}

Re: So...
Date: 2001-11-23 04:28 pm (UTC)BTW - Those Fleshlights are intriguing.
Heh - I ought to restock my sex toy collection, as I broke one, and lost 2 of them (the worrying aspect is the losing of the two).
As to coming to the ball - Oooh - Well - I see I am now on your friends list (yay) or is there another ball I am missing out on?
Damn I really need to move to London and get friendly with these Bi peeps! That dating & socialising pool in Manchester is no less fun, but far more limited!!
Laterz & cheers

Date: 2001-11-26 06:32 am (UTC)I've had mine for 3 1/2 years - got it from the sex shop run by one of the Boston bi people when I went to the Internationl BiCon there.
Unfortunately, I've never seen one here and it took a lot of searching in Amsterdam to find one there (and that one's in storage until Liam's older...) But even the surface mail from the US is quick.
What got broken / lost?
Re:
Date: 2001-11-26 06:40 am (UTC)One Vibrator got broken.
And 1 dildo & vibrator are lost. Presumed MIA.
Doh.
More worryingly is that my family come and stay with me every now and then - I would DIE if they found it.
Still - Rather amusing that you are gonna give your son a sex toy for a present - but intriguing.
Much like my father will be going on about the amount of sex he had with my mother in Fiji these last 2 weeks next time I meet him...
(sigh).
Still - Better things I could have gotten for Christmas (thats the next time I see him).
Laterz!!
