Logical Eccentricity

I got the following email on Monday; I was honestly surprised that my Gmail spam filters didn’t catch it. Without further ado, here is the entire text of the email, enjoy.

Hello [Me],

Am very sorry for you  [my name], is a pity that this is how your life is  going to end as soon as you don’t comply. As you can see there is no need of introducing myself to you because I don’t have any business with you, my duty as I am mailing you now is just to KILL you and I have to do it as I have already been paid for that.

Someone you call a friend wants you DEAD by all means, and the person have spent a lot of money on this, the person also came to us and told me that he wanted you dead and he provided us with your name ,picture and other necessary information’s we needed about you. So I sent my MEN to track you down and they have carried out the necessary investigation needed for the operation on you, and they have done that but I told them not to KILL YOU that I will like to contact you and see if your life is Important to you or not since their findings shows that you are innocent.

I called my client back and ask him of your email address which I didn’t tell him what I wanted to do with it and he gave it to me and I am using it to contact you now. As I am writing to you now my men are monitoring you and they are telling me everything about you.

Now do you want to LIVE OR DIE? As someone has paid us to KILL you. Get back to me now if you are ready to pay some fees to spare your life, $18,000 is all you need to spend You will first of all pay $8,000 then I will send a tape to you which i recorded every discusion i had with the person who wants you DEAD and as soon as you get the tape, you will pay the remaining $10,000. If you are not ready for my help, then I will carry on with my job straight-up.

WARNING: DO NOT THINK OF CONTACTING THE POLICE OR EVEN TELLING ANYONE BECAUSE I WILL KNOW.REMEMBER, SOMEONE WHO KNOWS YOU VERY WELL WANT YOU DEAD! I WILL EXTEND IT TO YOUR FAMILY, INCASE I NOTICE SOMETHING FUNNY.

DO NOT COME OUT ONCE IT IS 7:PM UNTIL I MAKE OUT TIME TO SEE YOU AND GIVE YOU THE TAPE OF MY DISCUSSION WITH THE PERSON WHO WANT YOU DEAD THEN YOU CAN USE IT TO TAKE ANY LEGAL ACTION. GOOD LUCK AS I AWAIT YOUR REPLY.

DON.

I went into Wanted expecting a mindless action movie, where the plot really wouldn’t matter. I was pleasantly surprised by the movie. Not only did it have a plot, the plot actually made sense and was coherent. The visuals were stunning, and they created very impressive action sequences. I read somewhere that this movie might do for Blu-Ray what the Matrix did for DVD. After watching the movie, I think I have to agree. When it is released on BR, I think people will be amazed by the quality and blu-ray adoption wil increase.

I watched Wall-E this weekend; it is a wonderful movie. It is an animated movie about two robots that fall in love. While it might sound corney, Pixar did an amazing job with the animation to make the characters very believable. Everyone enjoyed the movie that watched with me, and I would highely suggest you watch it.

So, this weekend marks the start my house hunting in earnest. I’ve been looking online at a couple of websites, but on Saturday I actually went to visit one of the places at an open house. Honestly, it was disappointing. The rooms were pretty small, basically you have your bed in there, and not much more. Overall the place was big, but because of the layout, the space was not effectively used. The highlight of the place was the kitchen; granite countertops, with stainless steel appliances and cherry wood finished cabinets. Either way, it is a start, and we’ll see what place I find in the end.

I’m sure all of you know of all the usual last minute deals; but I found a couple of new ones that you might not have used before. It’s all by the same company/site but is broken down by popular regions. So for example, you’ve got United State Hotels, and then more specifically Los Angeles Hotels, New York City Hotels, and San Francisco Hotels.

I haven’t purchased any hotels through this site yet, but I have been searching for price information. So far it looks very promising for future use. And since I’m going to need a vacation soon, I’ll probably put this site to good use, and I’ll post a more extensive review at that point.
