I get some bizarre email.

Here's one from today (names changed to protect the strange):

Dear Ace,

Have your dept. received my official GRE scores? Are my application materials complete? If not, please contact me.

By the way, I heard of you from JinJin. He told me that you are a beautiful woman. He also said that you are very nice. Nice to know you.

Thank you in advance for assistance.

Sincerely yours,

Chinese Guy

But...I don't know a JinJin. Huh.

And this one, which once again drives home that many people with email and the internet can read and write, but have no idea how to communicate:

Hi, I recently sent in an application to the University of Arizona and I was wondering if I must take the TOEL?

Well, what's your name? Which department did you apply to? Which degree program? Did you know it's actually the TOEFL, which stands for Test of English as a Foreign Language? English seems like it might be a foreign language to you, but since I have no idea who you are, I can't say for sure.

--Ace

a whole world of wtf
