    I really enjoyed Firefly. Recently flipping through the channels I came across a program I hadn't watched. The lead woman caught my attention. I thought she was doing a good job. I finally realized it was the girl who played Kaylee, the engineer on Firefly. 20 years later now. Family Law is the show I think?

    We watch it. Seeing her as the star was why we started watching. She's too skinny now though.

      Have to wear them to shoot,

    There's nothing in the rules that says you have to wear a hat unless you're shooting in "Classic" or "B Western", if I'm not mistaken.

    I thought that she wasn't even there when it happened.

    That’s my understanding. Did something change that says she was present?

    The article in the OP's post says that she was seen in the video.

    Okay. I just watched the video, and while it shows her on set during a take, it's NOT for the scene in question. NOTHING i've seen or heard says that she was.

    I did the same, but didn’t consult Snopes. There is no story to be found about this supposed person. I’m amazed people fall for this s**t. 

    I don't think that it's necessarily that we, (I) believe the story, it's just that I have such little faith in people today that I think that somebody might be stupid enough to try it.

    Back to rudeness. Sold a gun on Armslist today, buyer spent the entire time we met, looked at the and gun gave me the money. on his phone.

    You see that a lot these days. Some years ago, I was in the checkout line at Walmart, (before self checkout), behind a woman on her phone. She placed her purchases on the belt, still yakking on her phone. When the cashier told her the amount, she actually looked annoyed that she had to stop talking on the phone long enough to pay for her stuff.

    When I lived in Oregon I had a personal phone and a work cell phone. Almost daily I got some BS call on my work phone and I was getting pretty tired of it so I decided to have fun with them. Especially the Indian guys calling from a Tennessee area code to tell me the IRS was coming after me. 
    The phone would ring. I would see the Tennessee area code and answer it and turn on the speaker. 
    Right away this Indian guy would start telling me I owed $5000 in taxes and unless I paid it right now the FBI and the U.S. Marshals were coming to arrest me. 
    My response, in a calm cool sultry voice, would go like this:

    “Really?”

    ”Yes. You must pay now!”

    ”You sound like a pretty big guy. How tall are you? What’s your weight?”

    ”I am 6 feet tall. I weigh 200 pounds. I am muscular.”

    ”Wow, that sounds great. What are wearing right now?”

    ”What’s this have to do with anything?” He’s getting angry…good.

    ”I am just trying to get an image of you in my mind… what are you wearing?”

    ”A red polo shirt, blue jeans and black police footwear, why?” The police footwear almost made me laugh.

    ”Boy you sure sound scrappy. Are you scrappy?”

    ”Uh…yeah, I think so.”

    ”Tell me, do you have facial hair?”

    ”WHAT DOES THIS MATTER! What is wrong with you?”

    ”Well , do you scrappy man? Do you have facial hair?”

    ”YES! I have a mustache.”

    ”Perfect. I hope you have hairy chest too. I love running my fingers through chest hair. It’s quite sexy.” “WHAT? You (blankety blank blank blank)” CLICK

     

    Then we all got a great laugh out of it. 
    Every time I got one of those types of calls it went similar to that. Eventually the calls stopped. 

    Sometimes when they start their spiel, I'll reply with, (best Indian accent), "Hello, this is Bob from Microsoft our engineers have determined that there is a problem with your computer". They don't stay on long after that.

     My guess is that the average telemarketer is working that job because it is that or being unemployed with bills that need to be paid.

    If it's an actual just trying to sell something or a political poll, I'll be decent to them. However, it it's somebody about my "New car warranty", (my newest car is a 2006 Moparbishi), or my credit card debt, wanting to buy my house, etc., I usually just hang up. However, occasionally, depending on my mood or if I'm actually doing something, I'll string them along. Especially if it's somebody with a distinctly Indian accent.

    the scammer being really polite and friendly    Sad reality is that the scam artist relly on the desire to have manners and be polite because that keeps you engaged and gives them more chances to trick you into telling them things.

    Sometimes they really get mad when you tell them that their mother is having "relations" with your camel.

    Stoner was one heck of a designer , I felt and still do the AR180 was a failure as it was built

    The M16 was a failure as it was built. It's taken 60 years of further development to get it where it is today.

    HA!  It happened again this morning only a bit cooler.  Just 69 degrees, but the rest was just as perfect.

     

    Felt so good I went to Jen's 7th Avenue Cafe and had biscuits and gravy, five slices of bacon, and three cups of coffee.

     

    Looks like it's off to a great start of a Friday. :D

    74 here in Tucson. My own Grumpy Lunch Bunch, (yes, I 'borrowed' the name and they all love it),B) and I just finished Lunch at Cappy's Breakfast Cafe. I had an Open Faced Roast Beef Sammich with brown gravy, french fries and green beans all washed down with iced tea.:P

    This is a touchy subject with me...............

     

    There is a young gal who is going to school in Canada with the EXACT name as I.  My email address is FIRST(DOT)LAST@EMAIL.COM.  Her email is FIRSTLAST@EMAIL.COM.  Recently, she has applied for a couple of car loans (yes I've seen her credit score :o ), She has Uber Eats deliver food a couple of times a week, she buys lots of jewelry from Ross & Simons, I've even seen the lab results from her doctors visits.  I have asked her several times to please change her email address and she refuses.  I've told her of all the things I see that she probably wouldn't want me to see and she still refuses.  She claims since her email address is not the same as mine, I shouldn't be getting her emails, yet I do.  She believes that the software should be intelligent enough to differentiate between the two names.  

     

    I have started labeling the emails sent to her as spam in an effort to stop receiving them.  Every time I have contacted her to bring an end to this mess, she is really vile and rude, telling me if I don't like it I need to change my email address.  (I had this email address before she was even a concept.) I believe there is a bit of narcissism in her behavior.  If this email weren't my "private" email that everyone who needs to contact me has, I would change it in a minute.

     

    As for the OP, I attempted humor at first, mentioning what she had for dinner the night before (from the Uber Eats receipt) and politely mentioning if she didn't want me to see any more of her info, she might want to change her email.  That was a couple of years ago and she has gotten progressively mean and vile.  Now I just send it to spam and move on.

    Now, if one had an evil (?) mind, one might be tempted to create a Facebook account with that name and location, and post everything sent to you in error.   :rolleyes:

    I was thinking that maybe, if it were me, I might start saving the email addresses of those emailing HER, and start forwarding those emails to everybody else that sends something to her. :ph34r:

    When I was young, I could change a maypop like a NASCAR pit crew! Now have difficulty getting down to the road and back up, let alone lugging the tire!:lol:

    Just like the rest of us.

    As an FYI to anybody looking for tires, NEW cheap Chinese tires have to meet the same specifications as American made tires, so there's no reason NOT to get them. I've had a set of Westlakes on my Jeep since about 2017. They're about worn out at 30,000 miles with no problems.
