Last night when I went to check my mail after being on this board, it was exceedingly slow coming up and the browser bar held this

*** http://mail.yahoo.com/?.intl=us***

It has never had that before. I thought it was so stupid as to be obvious beyond belief, but I wanted to know if anyone else has seen this in their browser. Have you? Perhaps this explains some of the paranoia folks have lately. Scoffers-whatever.....I don't make junk up.

Just because you are paranoid doesn't mean they aren't out to get you........ha ha ha ha

I tried to cut and paste that addie but I am not a member of Yahoo so I couldn't get in there. Have you tried that? See where it will take you. I personally don't believe there is any privacy when it comes to electronic comunications.

Doesn't it make you feel good that the government is interested in our opinions of life? Kinda like a secret poll? :)

I am not paticularly paranoid (anymore). It is just the chasm in our society between left and right and right and wrong that our nation will never again be ONE NATION UNDER GOD. When Jump Off Joe can point his finger at you and me and say that it is our fault that men rape babies, there is no healing for this nation. As judgement falls on our nation, we will further be scapegoated.

Be gentle as a dove and wise as the serpent. (and carry a big stick)

that url, http://mail.yahoo.com/?.intl=us brings up the sign in page for Yahoo mail. You most likely encountered some lag with Yahoo servers(they experience problems at times during heavy use like weekend nights) or your own isp was having routing problems. Definitely nothing to be paranoid about.

I just signed on with a new isp as our old one determined they would just leave everyone in the lurch and not fix the problems we were having out here. Luckily this new isp had just become available in our area a month or so prior to the demise of the other one. They did say they were a bit overwhelmed by new accounts.

I tried copying and it just took me to the sign in page as Dave said. Has anyone else ever seen this before?

Actually got to do a poll over the telly for the first time ever! It was stupid. But I don't feel particularly loved by that little browser addy...I also don't think I'm worth spending anytime looking at for trouble, but project meggido seems to carry on. Oh well. :)

Ladybug wrangler, I am totally offended by your statements about me. You said," I am not paticularly paranoid (anymore)...When Jump Off Joe can point his finger at you and me and say that it is our fault that men rape babies, there is no healing for this nation."

First, please stop using the name Ladybug Wrangler. I like ladybugs, and your an insult to their name.

Second, I can think of only three possible explanations for the WRONG accusation you made against me:

1) You are a damned liar. 2) You got dropped on your head as a baby. 3) You ARE paranoid, 4) You have me confused with someone else, in which case you should have checked your facts before accusing me of making that statement, or 5) You're as full of shit as a Christmas goose.

Since I am not brazen enough to claim that I know THE TRUTH about Life, The Universe, and Everything, as some posters on this board are, I admit that there may be some other explanation. Please edify me.

I think she got dropped on her head
