Things to do in L.A. Traffic
Learn a foreign language.
Pretend to be a cab driver and talk into your rear-view mirror.
Listen to talk radio with the bass cranked up and your windows rolled down. Rhythmically bob your head.
Read a book or the newspaper. Just be sure to cut a horizontal strip out of the center so you can still see the road.
Build a sun shield for your side window with sticky notes.
Grow a moustache.
Bounce quarters into the ashtray.
Try taking off your socks without removing your shoes.
Practice Morse Code with your car’s horn.
Pretend not to watch people pretending not to pick their noses.
Make your own list of things to do in LA traffic instead of impaling yourself in desperation on your own shift lever.

I have some news for you. I received some spam today from voodootime.com about website traffic software. I just wondered if you knew there was another voodootime site out there or not.
Yet, oddly enough, the return address in the return email is different and makes no mention of voodootime.com.
Here it is… FYI

What do you make of this?

Hi Terry,
Thanks for the information. I will definitely be looking into this.
Unfortunately, one of the downsides of having a website is that a bunch of unscrupulous bastards will see your e-mail address eventually, and use it to do evil things. This is called “spoofing”, and it’s not an easy thing to control, so it is a common trick used by spammers. They don’t want all the hatemail plugging up their own e-mail accounts.
They may have gotten your e-mail address from one of your comments on the site too. This weekend, I will tweak the coding of the site to make it so that e-mail addresses are no longer displayed on the site.
Anyway, thanks again Terry, and I’m sorry you got spammed.
