Even to The Sun, and they'll write about almost anything.<br /><br />Ms Moon: The 5D does definitely embody that late-'60s period!<br /><br />E: Yeah, I don't think you were on my list back then!<br /><br />Ellen: Yes, be very glad. And be aware of the risk!<br /><br />Sharon: You've definitely heard her songs, even if you haven't heard her singing them. They've been covered by tons of very famous performers.<br /><br />37P: I hadn't really thought about the risks while texting! I guess I don't often text with multiple people simultaneously. I can see how that would be dangerous!<br /><br />Red: As long as it's not a sensitive e-mail, no harm done, right?<br /><br />Jenny-O: It's a truism of the Internet that you should never put in writing anything you wouldn't say to someone's face, because these things DO tend to get around.<br /><br />Bug: Aquarius! What a great song! We're still waiting for that hopeful, magical time, aren't we?! I have that 2-CD set, too!

So I decided I would only ever write personal emails that wouldn't do any harm if they went astray!! Now for work this can't necessarily be done, but maybe that's where using a telephone or face-to-face conversation comes in handy.<br /><br />jenny_ohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15475480579733466963noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5123631695572626256.post-643123833788199212017-04-20T18:01:35.482+01:002017-04-20T18:01:35.482+01:00don't think I've ever sent out a mass emai... don't think I've ever sent out a mass email but I have sent emails to the wrong person.

And I've never had the email snafu but I can't tell you how many times I have been texting with two or three people at once, and I send a text to the wrong person. The worst was when I was totally telling a friend about a budding romance in my daughter's life, and I sent the text to my daughter! Given the benevolence of the friend it was intended for, she only laughed. But embarrassing!37paddingtonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12400464105403622384noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5123631695572626256.post-49890057690331156462017-04-20T15:46:10.457+01:002017-04-20T15:46:10.457+01:00I experienced an email snafu similar to that when ...I experienced an email snafu similar to that when I replied to an email thinking is was going to only one person when it went to the person we were conversing about. I was mortified. <br />I did not know Laura Nyro but, I'm sure I knew her songs.

I still have two of her albums and oh! the memories they hold. <br />Not especially good ones, but deep ones. Nyro was amazingly evocative. <br />And hey! The Fifth Dimension was part of the whole colorful palette of the times. What a gorgeous stew of music we had to choose from then! <br />Ms. Moonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09776404747858099919noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5123631695572626256.post-9657110707741392032017-04-20T09:50:22.870+01:002017-04-20T09:50:22.870+01:00Spoilsport Steve!

Let's hope that your careless colleague doesn't send one out about you - it could be the basis of a headline story in "The Sun".Yorkshire Puddinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06019673884543913089noreply@blogger.com
