Weird correspondence

Wildlife

The above is one left over picture from my stay in Small Town. I think next time if I get sent to a small town for a project, it would be cool to send a postcard from there.

But back to my main topic of the day - mail. Yesterday I received an email via my website from someone called "Mr. Ronaldo" who was supposedly interested in purchasing my "painting/work". How dumb do these fraudsters think I am? It was clearly a hoax based on the fact that the spelling was horrific and Mr. Ronaldo forgot to fill in some of the form letter. For example, I am not selling paintings. What a bugger!

Today I finally looked through a mailing from the California Board of Accountancy. This publication is so dry that it would be a fire hazard during the summer! Anyhow, the only interesting reading I found in there was the section on enforcement actions taken against certain CPAs. For example, this one CPA, who happens to be a Chinese guy, who stole something from a Nordstrom Rack store and failed to report this conviction to the Board of Accountancy. Then there was a Chinese woman who admitted to gross negligence because her audit reports "contained typographical errors" among other things. I'm always interested in seeing what type of crimes the model minority Asians are committing.
