And I am counting down the seconds until '08.

I think we're gonna get Lifelock, but I don't know if it will work retroactively. We'll see I suppose.

There was some guy that got a lot of SSN's from a database in Lafayette, and our entire family was in that database. They called my dad a few days ago, but the rest of us just found out.

Are you going to do one of those commercials? You should get Frann Drescher to do the voice while you talk.

I already sound enough like Frann to use my own voice. That'd be money wasted.

Who wants to go bust some knees? Seriously, identity theft is one of the stupidest crimes. It can ruin someone mush easier than stealing their car or TV.

How do we know at this point SpankyPants, if you really are SpankyPants?

You really do seem to be "Gods favorite" these days. I've been there. It'll pass.

You can have my identity; I'm not currently using it for anything.

Or you can just go by name "Job" until you get your identity straightened out.





Seriously, though - that sucks. Hope your 2008 is a lot better.

That's tough. When I was 18, I had my identity stolen to get a credit card which was then somehow claimed under bankruptcy.

I'm still fighting to completely resolve the issue. It's absurd and really does hinder a lot of things in life.

Best of luck in resolving your issue swiftly.
