I was on ICQ so early, that I had a 5-digit ID. I lost the login for it, and couldn't recover it last time I tried, because my e-mail address had changed... The last time I used an on-line instant messaging app, it was MSM Messenger... Good times…

The NRA has totally lost track of their mandate... They should be leading the charge for responsible, safe, gun ownership, including policies that keep guns out of the hands of people who should not have them... They have, instead, become partisa…

Sometimes I think the phishing scammers aren't really trying... I never knew the Canada Revenue Agency operates out of Redmond, Washington.
