Well, that's a new one...

From an e-mail I got today:

Because my site has so much to do with small ships....?

But it might have something to do with cruising.

[misscam.livejournal.com]

You implying something? ;)

[norwegianne.livejournal.com]

Sounds more like a spam e-mail...

[misscam.livejournal.com]

Possible. But as far as I can tell, that spesific e-mail was sent just to me. Exact copies have been sent to many others, I'm sure.

[lisa-s.livejournal.com]

...but the important question is, will you get a free cruise out of it?

[misscam.livejournal.com]

... and will it have gorgeous, naked men?

[baronmind.livejournal.com]

Don't you see? Because your site has nothing to do with his, they're like two ships that pass in the night -- and thus the tie-in!

I came across your journal from cheekyweebisom's flamewar. Mind if I add you as a friend?

[misscam.livejournal.com]

Teehee. That was an original one.

Don't mind you friending me at all. *friends back*

The flamewar that brought people together :)

Hmm

It's like all those "You've won a MILLION DOLLARS!!!" letters, then you open the envelope "Sign here, here here and here and we'll send you a brochure to accept pakage deals to go into the draw to win your million!" Meh.

Oh and another thing...are you setting out staff positions for next year? If there is a next year? As I still am ready and willing to be janitor...I am anyway, sort of...a net cleaner who betas as many Mary Sues and just plain awful fics she can and then send them back with a slight...oh so very slight...hint to not continue. I gave up with the PotC ones, it's either Will/Jack slash or those 'You/Jack' fics which have exploded in number since the movie came...I was roleplaying Jack long before then and the way some of these writers make him it's downright disgraceful...almost coming in line with all anti LOTR canon.

Haven't decided on year three. But if year two stretches on, you could always attempt to get upgraded to staff.

Er...

I went to the site and have no idea why they emailed you, but I did find a link to a very interesting Celtic jewellery webpage through their site.

So some good came of it, I s'pose ;)~
