Hah! Suckers! I just made my Photobucket account PRIVATE!
Fool me didn't realize that it defaulted to public until I tried to access someone else's (not a DUer :)) and saw that it was password-protected, then searched for my name and found all my pics were spillin' all over the website.

THAT changed really quickly! :D

No offense to you fine human beings, but I'd rather my pics only show up where I intentionally put 'em, selectively.

Plus it said I had 4318 monthly hits, which the question mark tells me is the number of direct links outside Photobucket. WTF? I only have 30 pics!

:crazy:

2. Yikes. Maybe a stalker or two?
Though they would have to be pretty obsessed.

It's probably just search engine robots giving you all the hits. Not to wound your ego or anything ;-)

3. I'm sure there are stalkers out there.
I've seen threads on neocon sites 'bout me.

You KNOW I'm so important. Yah!

18. I saw one of those...
I was incredibly bored, so I was lurking on a blogspot one (Dummie Funnies I believe), and I saw a none-too-flattering post about you. It's kind of sad that they're such losers they actually have to dissect our posts and make fun of us online for their amusement.

I failed however, to find any complaints on RW websites about myself, unless you count one about Castro from two years ago. That makes me feel unimportant. :cry:

5. Oh, NO! Please click this link . . . is mine public?!
I just looked at my account settings and I don't think it is, but . . . will someone check, please?

I'm not paranoid but they're after me.

I'm surely glad you found out about this, Wimr. Do be careful.

25. Are you really 73? I thought I was the oldest person around here!
Photobucket account is free.

Folks can thumb through it if they wish.

The closest thing to porn is a picture of Gramps and me in London. I'm not going to worry about it!
