Another Episode of Adventures in Spam!

tealinGmail has a great spam filter. I love it. Now, in Gmail, you get a little snippet of message text after the subject line, and the ones I see in the spam folder are always vastly different than any spam I've ever gotten before. I thought maybe it was a statistical quirk, but when I saw the message text "NASA I'm against it Men Just a moment! ??? ???? Greeting Cards" I had to see what on earth that was about – turns out it's someone trying to sell me discount software, and those words never appeared anywhere. Is this random gobbledygook that Gmail puts in so you don't even have to read the spam text? Or a secret message?
Hmmmm....
All right, you can go back to your otherwise interesting lives.

Vampire in the Watch! Vampire in the Watch!!
THUD! BLURB
I think waiting three days longer than our friends to the south is an adequate price to pay for a Paul Kidby cover. 45 DAYS!! I am so glad it is a Vimes book.

Drew this while listening to 'Stars' (on a tablet! A smaller brush size is less ugly!) ...![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
tulanoodle and I had a conversation last night about actors, interpretation of roles, and three-dimensionality. This was especially in reference to the Javert in the cast I saw (who made the character actually sympathetic), and one who came to her Musical Theatre class last year, who talked about bringing depth to a character and how it's important not to play Javert all on one note.* So I'm paying him a bit more attention as I listen to the soundtrack today...
Anyway, I wanted to make his nose a bit straighter but the tablet wasn't cooperating. Next time.
*We never did conclusively decide if this was the same person... if he visited her school in the winter, he probably was, because he was part of the touring company, and the cast I saw was going to be in SLC in late December or early January or thereabouts – some time period in which I half-considered going again while I was there for Christmas. I wish I could find my programme...
