Marmalade floof!
SQUEE!
I forgot that because of my ulcers, I can’t eat anything that is over a day old. I’ll get food poisoning, every time. And so, I was up almost all night. I think I got a total of three hours sleep.
The plans I had for today may just get trashed. I’m still not over it entirely, so I will spend yet another day just taking it easy. Oh. Joy.
Even with the Filtrete filter in, I smelled the smoke from the CA fires all night. Ungh. I suspect when I take it out on payday to replace it, it will be filthy. *sigh*
Would it make any sense for me to say I’m tired and the day hasn’t even begun?

Spent awhile these past few days trying to find out whether this is for real:
http://clintonil.global-free-classified-ads.com/listings/1-67-impala-ss-coupe-it6416914.html
See, that’s not a $7,700 car; that’s a $27,700 car. At least.
Still, you occasionally find people selling things for pennies on the dollar for one reason or another: ignorance of what they’re selling, vengeance against an ex — it takes all kinds. So, I ran it down.
Yeah, it’s a complete scam.
Supposed seller claims to be a photog for National Geographic who’s on assignment out of the country until early next year.
His email cites this URL:
national-geographic.us
A quick look at “View Page Source” should elicit a laugh from the knowledgeable.
Anyway, supposedly Pop died, son has NO interest in what Dad’s trusty steed is really worth (though obviously if any of this story were at all true, the car would have been the old man’s pride and joy), so he’s liquidating it.
Now, being out of the country on assignment, he wants to arrange the transfer of title through “Express Logistic & Shipping.”
http://www.logistic-shipping.com/
I’m to go online and Register with this company, then send them the money for the car, then they’ll put my payment in an escrow account, then ship the car out to me, then I get a week to make sure I want to keep it, and then they’ll release my payment to the seller.
Supposedly.
Nevermind that the logistics company’s landline number seems tied to a Dollar Rent-a-car location in Portland, and their FAX number ties back to whois data for umpteen different domains:
globetransport-ltd.com ostensibly in Houston, TX
pizzade.net over in Istanbul
artiligayrimenkul.com also the same crew in Istanbul
Oh, THESE are interesting:
publicdomainregistry.com located at F/20, Business Centre 1,RAK Free Trade Zone, Ras al-Khaimah Ras al-Khaimah 16113 AE But — hey — the FAX number is the same.
and
lifelinebraincures.com registered by Domainshype.com, Inc ( tldadmin@directi.com ) F/19, RAK FTZ, P.O Box #16113 Ras Al Khaimah AE
...as well as a smattering of companies:
https://www.logicboxes.com/support/
http://eu.directi.com/contact/
It just goes on and on and on...
So I’m going to just plague this guy for as long as humanly possible. Anyone who’d like an online cat toy to swat around at will, feel free to join in the plagueage.
