I'm glad Dirk has come to visit your blog- he's a great guy. I looked at the pictures of you posted first- you are such a pretty lady Mary! I wish I looked half as good! God Bless. As soon as I pull myself together, I will be writing another post about the leaders who are moving us to a world government. This financial crisis is just the tipping point. God Bless MAry- love CarolynCarolynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06778221847847541523noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7991415371219936859.post-7627652118457992572009-01-24T12:45:00.000-08:002009-01-24T12:45:00.000-08:00Hi Mary,And thanks for the great, insightful comme...Hi Mary,<BR/>And thanks for the great, insightful comment on 'Tom's Journal'! You sound very stressed and I can understand why. If you ever need any help or just want to visit, just email me: tschuckman@aol.com<BR/>We already have a lot in common with you living in WI for a while. <BR/><BR/>People just can't understand how I relate all the woes of the U.S. stupid racial politics and goofy 'bail outs' that will NOT help us get back to being solvent and stable as a nation-- but I am HAPPY and joyful, because as a serious student of the Bible and follower of Jesus Christ, I KNOW what will and MUST happen in the near future. All the promised Bible events are unfolding in front of our eyes but the vast majority of the world "can't see it" because they don't have the Holy Spirit to help them "see."<BR/>God Bless you and your family!<BR/><BR/>Warm Regards,<BR/>Tom S<BR/>tschuckman@aol.com<BR/>Brrrrr, WI.Heli gunner Tomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04793588674806453096noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7991415371219936859.post-5273710408609377742009-01-24T08:12:00.000-08:002009-01-24T08:12:00.000-08:00i would also be upset about both things...the emai...i would also be upset about both things...the emails and the private home #. There is SO much info about each of us out there....and i have no answers but maybe there is a plausible explanation how that lady was able to call you. I know it is hurtful to get stuff about babies....i am always the 1st one to believe there is some huge conspiracy but in your case, i pray there is not.

I threw the biggest fit when my hubby got one of those grocery discount cards from our local store for one of those reasons. BUT my youngest child is going on 8yrs old.. I have not bought anything baby in a VERY long time.. so that is not part of my shopping habits, not enough to get on dozens of lists like that.hunybea4himhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09266998467668431247noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7991415371219936859.post-79126665235554278462009-01-23T09:33:00.000-08:002009-01-23T09:33:00.000-08:00This is my first visit here, & I came here fro...This is my first visit here, & I came here from Tom's journal. I'm an AOL "evictee" myself. I am now following your journal, & I would like to invite you to follow mine. I'm looking forward to your comments & thoughts there!<BR/><BR/>About the odd e-mails you're getting - you don't have to sign up to get them to get them (odd syntax!!!) If you have a grocery store discount card, for example, your purchasing habits are recorded in that companies database. Advertising is sent to you depending on what you purchase most often. Giving a few cents discount is the incentive they use to get your information. During the sign up process, if an e-mail address is required, expect spam, again based on the types of items you purchase most often. This saves the company untold expenses on advertising costs. That's just one possible source most don't think about. This is why I have a "junk e-mail" address that I use only for this purpose. That way, this mess doesn't get sent to my "real" e-mail address.<BR/><BR/>Companies are also able to obtain a lot of your personal information from various & sundry databases, such as family information, again to do targeted advertising. There is no such thing as privacy anymore. All your information is stored in computer databases in many places, places that we couldn't even imagine. There are many ways the information is gathered.<BR/><BR/>As a law enforcement officer, I've posed the question why do I have to get a subpoena to get such information on someone I'm attempting to locate, but companies have free & open access without our consent. A cell telephone company's law enforcement assistance division couldn't answer that question.<BR/><BR/>I'm so sorry it's been so upsetting & traumatic for you. We certainly don't need more government regulations & laws, but if they want to do something really helpful, there oughta be a law where companies have to have our consent to share information with other companies . . . just like it used to be. <BR/><BR/>One more thing - those so-called "privacy statements"? They're nearly all BALONEY!!! LOL<BR/><BR/>As for the rogue telephone call - maybe someone just had a wrong number. After years of having the same number, we still get them ourselves. But, I think Gerry's thoughts on it are closer to what happened. Again, no such thing as privacy anymore regardless of what their "privacy statements" say.<BR/><BR/>I hope you can have a very blessed Friday & weekend!<BR/><BR/>Dirk<BR/>THE FIRST AMENDMENT, NOT POLITICALLY CORRECT<BR/>http://tsalagiman2.blogspot.com/Dirkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04794945973074374935noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7991415371219936859.post-35667650921873425472009-01-23T00:24:00.000-08:002009-01-23T00:24:00.000-08:00I find this strange.

I have just noticed that beside my gmail e-mails links will appear pertinent to the subject I am writing about mainly in e-mails to my sister as though someone was reading all these e-mails, but so far I have not received any e-mails pertinent from anyone. I don't like anything that indicates a lack of privacy, plus I have lost the AOL e-mail version that had all my e-mail addresses and they re not coming up anymore, but fortunately I had transferred the addresses I use to gmail and they are coming up over there. I only send what you would call alert to a new video series but don't send alerts otherwise. However, with your private number it looks like something has been tapped into, cell phone info or something, so maybe that is the cause of a breach of privacy. No, you sure don't need this aggravation. Sorry. GerryGerryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00771917880182186281noreply@blogger.com
