Let's go through Rayne's e-mail, shall we? C'mon, it'll be fun!

We'll break it down by message #, subject title, "from" line (if I feel like it), and my reaction.

And just for the record, I am NOT making these up!

Now, let's get started:

13) "Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix Audio Book!!!" - "Booksamillion.com Harry Potter Newsletter" - "Wha--? I didn't sign up for a HP newsletter with these people! Oh, wait. Maybe I did.

Hope those links worked.

18) "Enter to win a Williams-Sonoma Romantic Getaway!" - "WeddingChannel.com" - "CHRIST! What is UP with these people?! I'm gonna CHOKE Sleepy!" Sends a remove-me-from-your-mailing-list e-mail and then deletes.

24) "Important Announcement from drugstore.com" - drugstore.com - "Gak! Puh-leeze tell me you are NOT out of my drugs!" Twitches and reads. "Okay. Whew! Just something about their privacy policy" Reads.

[Oh man, check this out. Part of their new privacy policy regarding the disclosure of PHI (protected health information): "Military Activity and National Security - To the military as required by military command authorities when the patient is a member of the armed forces; to authorized federal officials for intelligence, counterintelligence, and other national security activities authorized by law; and to authorized federal officials so they may provide protection to the president, other authorized persons, or foreign heads of state or conduct special investigations."

Yeah, baby. Let the CIA know all about my Buspirone HCL--it's a terrorists dream come true. *snark*

Oh, and here's another one: "We will use and disclose PHI to carry out health care operations. For example, we may use information in your health record to monitor the quality of our pharmacists performance, to train pharmacy personnel, or to ship prescriptions to you."

Gee...does the UPS man really need that kind of information? Heh. "Be VERY careful when you go to Rayne's door. She takes medication for anxiety, so don't make any sudden moves! You don't want her wigging out, man! IT'S NOT PRETTY!]

Oh look, another one popped up...

25) "You have been unsubscribed" - "WeddingChannel.com" - "Thank God. Anything having to do with the m-word scares the hell outta me." Deletes.

Bah. I hate spam.
