Is it bad that I still receive spam mail addressed to Scott in my e-mail? I want to respond to every spam mail and say "Scott Thomas DIED 2.5 years ago, please stop e-mailing me!!!!!!". His spam is going to haunt me forever.

Scott, being the huge artsy-fartsy hippy he was, was anti-technology and super anti-internet, absolutely HATED computers. The only time he ever used a computer was at my house so he could track down friends he went to boarding school with VIA my myspace account (he refused to create his own account) but mostly to apply for jobs. Being that he lacked any knowledge of the internet, he'd apply for jobs on random websites with my e-mail address but most of these job postings or ads he was applying for were far from legit. He used to apply for surveys because they would say "make money now" or "fill out our survey online and earn $200" not realizing it was bullshit. Well, 4 years later and spam is still being sent to my inbox. Today I got: "RE: Scott, your invitation into a global directory has been accepted" and "Scott find tenants in a snap" Scott was never a landlord, he lived with his dad! WHAT global directory? Hahaha.

I joke and tell myself this is Scott's way of making sure I never forget him. He's totally laughing at me right now. It's funny though, he lives on through the internet, something he happily lived without.
