[Leica] Don't Report me to Alberto Gonzales

[mcintyre at ca.inter.net (Jim McIntyre)]

Joseph,

A few years ago I opened an email from a client, which contained the heading
"I love you...." Yes, the infamous love virus. Pretty soon total mayhem
ensued, much to my red-faced embarrassment. Which was further compounded by
the fact that I had recently moved to my current position from a previous
role as, meaning I should have know better, a network administrator!

Rest assured that aside from a opening a few emails to see "what the heck"
was going on, I've deleted all off my system unread.

Now that you have endeared yourself to the LUG community, how about a few
picture postings for discussion? Perhaps of your watch collection ;-)

Jim

PS: I just downloaded the latest spyware checker and virus scanner updates
and checked my system. There are silver linings everywhere....
