Yesterday I received 181 emails for little blue pills.
A spam record for me.

I know that I am getting on a bit but I prefer the little brown pills as
they last longer. ;-)

Not mine I hope. Possibly what used to be AOL's. The email address is
owned by yet another company. During the changeover some subdirectories
have changed their superior directory and T/bird's filters do not work.
Although they all arrived on the same day. The delivery dates are spread
over a month. Well they went straight into my Junk folder.

Now that reminds me of a line from Robert Sheckley’s book "Options".
Mishkin leaned back in the chair and closed his eyes. That was bad:
derangement of various sense ratios, ideas of reference, hot flashes. He
opened his eyes. That was not so good either. He reached for the
Turn—off Bottle. It had a label that read, “IF THE TRIP GOES BAD, DRINK
THIS.” He drank it, then noticed a label on the other side of the bottle
that read, “IF THE TRIP GOES BAD, DO NOT DRINK THIS."
My Google-fu is getting better. :D

Yes an underrated author, now.
And he was not the only one to use the Rev Dodgson’s trip down the
rabbit hole.
