This person found me on friendster and started emailing and chatting. I’ve already traced the IP address to Nigeria. So far the story is she is originally from china, but now lives in miami. She’s instantly in love with me and wants to form a long lasting relationship. aha. the intent is to string along the scammer to waste their time. hopefully get some lulz out of it too. here’s some text from today:
Alex Williams: hello

“pamela” has been im’ing me for a few days now. Just says Hi, are you there sort of thing. I have no idea who this is so I reply back with “who are you”. I never get a response. Just the next day I get another “are you there”. Today ‘pamela’ caught me online and i decided to play along:
pamela.cambell: BUZZ!!!
pamela.cambell: “Multiply it by infinity, take it to the depths of forever and you’ll still only have a glimpse of how much I love you.”
pamela.cambell: u there hunnie
radialmonster: hi
pamela.cambell: hi too ive been longin to talk with u huneio
pamela.cambell: u were always on mobile hunie
BUZZ!!!
radialmonster: yes. but you have still not answered my question
pamela.cambell: wat question hunnie
radialmonster: do i know you?
pamela.cambell: u tell me
pamela.cambell: hawz that
radialmonster: that it is
pamela.cambell: “I just close my eyes because I might see your face. I just close my mouth because I might hear your voice. I just close my ears because I might hear of you, but I could not close my heart because I love you.”
pamela.cambell: “The more I know you, the more I love you.”
BUZZ!!!
BUZZ!!!
**At this point I see the stupid quotes thing going on, the buzzing’s bothering me, and I decide to quote some stuff too. I fire back with some random Jack Handy quotes:
radialmonster: “Why do people in ship mutinies always ask for “better treatment”? I’d ask for a pinball machine, because with all that rocking back and forth you’d probably be able to get a lot of free games.”
pamela.cambell: wat u talkin about hunnie
radialmonster: i’m just saying
radialmonster: “The difference between a man and a boy is, a boy wants to grow up to be a fireman, but a man wants to grow up to be a giant monster fireman.”
BUZZ!!!
** About an hour passes so I give it one last shot:
radialmonster: i miss you

I was going to get on here and write something profane like things about my life and thoughts recently, life, work, love, lack of life, work and love, and maybe i’ll write a book or something and how last night i was feeling down and i get on last.fm and play my recommended tracks and it picks whitney houston and soulified stevie wonder and i just stop it and laugh. Tomorrow night I’ll go out to a local hang out i’ve been frequenting. hmm which reminds me i need to charge my camera tonight and dump the flash drive to prepare. But my camera’s been screwing up recently and the top buttons are wearing out or something. I found the new camera i want, but its like 350 and not available until april i think. and so i’m transferring the pictures now but i actually have no idea what pics these are. will see in a minute when they’re done. i have 2 more cards to check too. and by the time you read this i’ll have finished transferring the pics and this whole section will already be obsolete. but you wont even get to see the pics yet because i need to import them in to my ‘process’ and tag, label rename and upload them which won’t happen tonight because it’s so late it’s after 12:30am and i’m so tired i’m not even going to write anything.

2007 Began anew in the single world for me where just over a month earlier was the end of a relationship (although unbeknownst to me, for her it had ended way before that and she already started a new one). I had decided my New Years superstition was that my next picture would be of me with my future mate, and by day 2 I completely abandoned that idea and settled for this first picture of 2007. 
I passed the time with friends 
out to eat, friends at hockey games, 
and taking pictures of odd things such as this airplane on a trailer. 
Jan 16 I met a great girl Diedre who we both decided would be perfect for each other if she didn’t live 1500 miles away. The first snow was on January 18th, 
, Just before Mark turned 30 
. Mike, Sue and Katherine came to visit for the weekend 
while Tim and Kelly kept me entertained at work 
. 
Alan and I won “Runner Up” in the theme park review video contest for 2006 to which we probably will not enter again. My dad had his birthday on Feb 1 
and we started to play a bit of magic again. 
I risked my life climbing into an old attic only to discover a hidden ceiling with some old relics attached 
for the main purpose to give the cute girl in the office my flickr address so she could check out my other pictures. The circus came to town 
and puppies infiltrated my household. 
We attended a barely exciting monster truck show 
and my office exploded in a sea of flying termites. 
Work wasn’t only at work, it was after work too 
and Jonathan had his first magical experience 
. I became a rock band photographer 
and we continued to hone our magic skills. 
Had a good lunch with Roxanne, 
then immediately left for Charlotte for Carowinds with the whootah crew. 
Work isn’t work with friends again 
and by this time another failure was under way 
. To which I went out and drowned my sorrow 
and penned this poem. After a long dry spell, we played D&D again 
then Easter at Grandmas. 
Gadita discovers porn 
and this little piggy went home.
Ruby Tuesdays violates fire code every day 
then we head out for a fantastic adventure in Washington DC. 
On the way home I hit a deer, causing $3500 worth of damage to my car. 
Took about 2 weeks or so then got my car back good as new. 
Went to Kings Dominion 
had lunch with mom and grandma 
and was yet again questioned if I still loved the ex or not for Mother’s Day. My first ‘date’ of the year was a ‘non date’ (to which I certainly treated it as such) with Lindsey to the Pink Floyd Symphony special edition concert 
to which I failed to convince her to join me at the ever awesome Animazement. 
A trip to the zoo in Asheville 
with all the buds, and then another hit and run accident with a deer. 
Robin attempts to imitate Merkley 
to which he found (on his own mind you) and responds a good job! More puppies arrive 
while a bird leaves 
. The 80’s are resurrected 
and Lindsey joins us for a night out 
at Crowleys. Gadita finds my box of old mementos 
and 4th of July at Kings Dominion wasn’t as crowded as we thought it would be while the Franklinton fireworks was even better. 
Virginia Beach was beachy 
as cooking out is to summer. 
I discover my great great great grandfather fought in the revolutionary war. 
By this time, I met Theresa and we met at Chili’s for the first time on friday night, to which I didn’t get a picture of as I figured I had no chance with such a pretty girl anyway. When I got home I had a message from a new person Kim 
to which we decided to go out Saturday night who although she tried to convince me that she wasn’t interested in money wanted our first date to be the 42nd street oyster bar and was disappointed that I wasn’t a big shot at some huge corporation. Later, decided that me and Kim did have a good time however, so about a week later we tried again 
to where I realized that she is too city slicker for me. A free movie in the park 
almost prompted me to invite her, yet a week after the movie Theresa invited me and John to the same park for a night with Warrant, her sister and friends to which proved to be an unbelievable disaster 
despite this pic. That is the look of fear in mine eyes. A few days later Steve became a dad 
and we decide to try Carowinds one more time
. Dan played at The Cave 
Then we had the first family reunion in like 100 years. 
Kure beach was great (again) 
. And a chance encounter proves eventful 
. 
Halloween was time for pumpkins to which mine are still on my front porch rotting. Then followed up with the crazy fun time that is Nekocon 
. I come home to a purple Murray 
and Tim points out our local chemtrails 
. Thanksgiving was at moms lake house 
and I break out and buy a new tv 
. I pen my first ‘comic’ 
, at least the first one that I’ve claimed. The best piece of ass I get all year was at the texas roadhouse 
and Mercy’s still going strong 
. Gadita faithfully helps me wrap Christmas presents 
culminating to this collection on Christmas Eve 
. Christmas was spent traveling to family 
. Alan and berb made a gingerbread house 
and we discover a new game 
Carcassonne. New Years Eve party at my place wrapped up the year 
with this being the last picture of 2007 
and this being the first picture of 2008 
.
In this year I heard my dad make a gay joke (playing the flute pipe), my granddad say he wish he could smoke a joint, girls of the year (qualification only includes words more than the normal hi how are you, I like you kind of thing, i think these are in order even) included diedre, mylene, tressie, cristy, lindsey, daphne, heather, kerry, theresa, kim, monica, leilani, amanda & amy, <that south korean girl>, jenny, jennifer despite to all of which I’m still just me. I hope i didn’t miss any if I did i’m not trying to exclude. I’m trying to include, only for my personal journal to look at 10 years from now. Some of the ladies were only talks, some were dates, throughout 2007 how many kisses did I get? 1 peck on the cheek. It didn’t stop me from trying though, and from having a great time with friends, Alan, Barb, Eric, John, Jay, Jonathan, Mark, Mike, Robin, Scott, Steve, Sue, Wes who am I missing who helped me add countless photo’s to my portfolio this year. Co workers also included Kelley, Mike, Rob, Tim, and some others. My personal business did xx,xxxx amount of dollars, a bit more than last year. Aha, I’m not giving that out! Mom and Dad are both doing fine, family is good and normal as usual actually. I’m doing good, learned I have a hernia which isn’t critical, otherwise health is good. If you want more detail about my life you should read through the archives where you’ll find tons of crap written by right here. Thanks for being a part of 2007, bad or good.

So at some point I want to make a 2007 year in review post. But whenever I get a few minutes to sit down and write it, I decide I need much more than just a few minutes and I never write anything. Hm, I haven’t actually posted anything since before Christmas. Ok, let’s do a year 2008 in review then.
To bring in the new year I hosted a small party. We played with John’s wii all night to which everyone enjoyed. By the end of the night John was pretty tired though. Had about all my friends there, I even cleaned up the kitchen for it. Which was difficult as I hadn’t seen my kitchen table in years. Before clearing it off I piled it up with a collection of mail and gifts I’ve recieved over the last about 2 years. A while back I decided I had some extra money and I sent $15 to the North Shore Animal League as a donation. Ever since, I have been bombarded with letters from other charities asking for money also. Some send letters, some little gifts such as preprinted address labels and calendars, and some send hand woven dreamcatchers, tshirts, umbrellas and coffee mugs. They have totally blown my $15 donation a long time ago, and hence will not see another dime from me.
Then I cleared off the table, 
and took a picture as I don’t remember the last time this has happened. I then proceeded to pile stuff on it 
and get ready for the incoming guests. Everyone pigged out on pizza and snacks. 
We then proceeded to hook up the games and laugh at each other’s lack of abilities. 
Afterwards we did some Christmas gift exchanging as it hadn’t been done yet and we some of us proceeded to stay up until 5am 2008. We did watch the apple and acorn drop to its most terrible climax ever as immediately afterwards instead of airing the huge party in NYC or a band line up at some club as normal, they switch over to a 10 year old David Letterman show. Jokes about Monica and Bill are way out of style. Otherwise, had a good time. Afterwards, back to the lonely house.
