it don't make no sense

Since it has happened several times lately and always makes me chuckle, I thought I'd share a few lines about the absurd things my yahoo mail likes to tell me. When I get an email, there are usually key words highlighted by yahoo, just in case I wanted to take the time to learn more about Las Vegas right in the middle of reading an email from a friend. From my tone, you can probably glean that no, I do not care to do so. But the funny part to me is yahoo's choice of subjects to highlight. I can understand travel spots or phrases like "gin and tonic" but what about nonsensical sentance fragments, like "sleeping on the floor" or "makes NO sense". Both of these were designated. And just because they seemed like odd choices to me, I caved and clicked. Did you know there are chatrooms dedicated to sleeping on the floor? Did you know there is a band named Makes No Sense? Me neither! But now I do, and so do you. Thanks, yahoo!

I clearly am using the wrong email program...

Oooh, it does that on Yahoo Messenger, too. Some of them, I must admit, are too random to even click on, though.
