This should get me into heaven...

So at this week's old lady meeting, after the discussion of the delivery time of mail in town and before the recap of who did and did not attend last year's whatever event, one old gal brought up her concern that she was not receiving the newsletter emails.  I was sitting next to the gal who handles the newsletter. She was younger than me so I was apt to believe anything she said in regards to anything computer related.  So old gal says, "I'm not getting the newsletter."  Computer gal leans over to me and whispers, "Yes, she is. The email was opened." Now what a lot of folks don't realize is that the system admin can see not only if an email has been opened and how long it was left opened.  Some might get paranoid when they hear that until they remember that no one is bored enough to actually check unless there's a problem.
Anyway, old gal is going on about how she doesn't get the newsletter emails. She gets all the other emails. She doesn't have problems getting emails from anyone else. She even gets emails from <whispering> porn sites.
What I didn't say was, "If you are getting emails from porn sites it's because someone in your household, with limited Internet experience, (i.e. not a grandchild) is giving your email address to the porn site.  The porn site did not stumble upon your home email nor can a porn site 'figure out' your home email address if someone accidentally stumbles upon the site. I can state this categorically because I live with three males over the age of 15 and I don't get porn emails at my home email address.  Sweetheart, your husband is a porn-hound."
But I didn't say that. Because I have a heart of fucking gold.

And because I'd already pissed her off by trying to help solve her committee problem without realizing that she DID NOT NEED HELP WITH THE PROBLEM BECAUSE I KNOW EXACTLY WHAT THE PROBLEM IS.   Jeez-Louise, if you know what the problem is, why have you been talking for the last 20 minutes?
I related this story to John and he said, "Look at it this way, you, and anyone else your age, are the Men in the group. They want to talk and you want to solve the problem and move on."
Me, "ooooohhhh. so it's like show-and-tell." Maybe this will help with next week's meeting......
