The only advantage to having an AOL e-mail account that is closing in on a decade in age is that I get to stay on top of the newest scams that are going around. I've posted before about the various 419 scams, but this new one has an altered premise which is only slighty more believable than the typical 419. Read the e-mail and my response.
You know you've done it. Sometimes it's worse than other times. Sometimes, you are Evan Weber and leave a 45 minute message at 4am on your father's cell phone that you don't remember in the morning. Sometimes, you are Noah Fournier freestyle rapping about getting how much he likes guys. And sometimes, just sometimes.... you are Lewis Cataldo.
Something to note: the new archive section down on the left hand side of the page. You can now browse into the past and view some vintage TODI (and by vintage I mean the last six months), and there's more to come.
With the recent closing of the first TuneOutDropIn Poll, another one has been cooked up for you viewing pleasure. So who's going to be the new winner in the battle of soon-to-be-arrested? Vote and see. Also keep in mind that my scripts still block multiple votes from the same IP, so if you want to subvert my democracy, go and vote again at the library, or work, or something.
And now for some links!
It's no suprise! - A Google image search turn up no pictures...
Breaking news from the poll center: A new poll winnner has been announced for the first month of 2006! As voluteers continue to count the last few votes that trickle in, a clear winner is emerging. So without further ado, may I present our winner:
| How long will Camire and Noah live with their parents? | ||||
| Until they move to Vermont and marry each other.(15) |
|
|||
| Until Camire moves in with his sister and Noah enters rehab.(6) |
|
|||
| Until they see this poll.(3) |
|
|||
| Forever.(1) |
|

I sure hope I am invited to the ceremony in 2014! Look for a new poll tomorrow.
With the new year still fresh in our minds for about another week, I have been granted the low down of what is so far the story (READ: rumor) of the year. I guess I should be sensitive about this kinda stuff, but sometimes you just can't help it. So here we go. I received this IM communication from my aquaintence Don Jimter:
So as promised, here is the IM I got from T-Bird detailing the antics of Jaden:
Well, in Boulder things went from super boring over the Christmas weekend, to pretty hectic over New Year's weekend. With Christmas approaching, everyone and their mom evacuated Boulder to go home for the holidays. Everyone except me that is. I managed to follow up my first summer and Thanksgiving away from NH with a whole winter holiday season without one Manchester appearance. It would have sucked, except for one fact: My wonderful mother and super sister Lora came to visit for a whole week over the new year. So my absence is based partly on not wanting to spend my nights typing away on my computer, but rather kicking it with the fams.
And since I know how much you love debauchery, here's a little tidbit that is still revealing itself slowly over the days. Jaden and Megan were lucky enough to get to Lake Tahoe to ring in 2006 with Tom, Katie, and Dittmer. Apparently, and by apparently I mean most definitely, upon finding himself locked out of Tom's house Jaden decided the best way to enter the house was to throw a giant rock through the huge window in front. He then proceeded to crawl through the window frame and pass out leaving Megan sitting on the couch with "a look of disgust' on her face. No kidding. I've got a great IM from T-Bird that I will post up here later on when I get home from work, so check back this evening.
In addition to Jaden's antics, Ditt and T-Bird have finished recording their latest smash-hit rap single "Slappin' Bitches 2 Tears". From what I hear, it is what the kids call "off the chain". Look for the MP3 here or on The JohnDittmer.com in the near future. Speaking of John's Sweet Internet Spot, he just put up a ski video that you should check out here. It's close to 20 MB, so have patience. That's all for now.
P.S. That picture of Hodes' mugshot was not real in any way, and in fact was quite a poor photoshop job. Thanks to the person who IM'ed me saying they saw the pic and that Hodes was "so 70's" for wearing his aviators in his mugshot. That made me laugh for quite some time.
