wednesday january 10

today i received an e-mail from my grandmother. it read as follows (BACKSTORY: i recently demonstrated for her my cell phone camera because i knew she'd be fascinated and confused by it, as she is most technology, and this never fails to be amusing):

"hi luke
i thought of you talking about your camera inside your phone when i read this. it all makes me try to remember to be 'aware.'"

this introduction was followed by a lengthy story about a guy who had had his credit card stolen and didn't realize it because the thief had somehow switched it out for an identical credit card. so when the $14,000 bill came back, dude had to pay for most of it because he hadn't reported the card as stolen initially!! what this has to do with my cell phone and its camera, i have absolutely no idea, but i'll report back if i figure it out.
