I have been delinquent about posting, haven't I? It's been a busy few weeks. It seems like I've been spending most of my time deleting spam emails to my Yahoo email account that I associate with this blog. The titles of these emails are designed to make stupid people think they have won a fortune, with headings like "Very urgent, please reply ASAP"; and "Need your immediate response." Oh, and here's a good one: "Winning notification from Mr Usman Kamal". Uh, yeah, right. Like I'm going to reply to a camel. I used to never get any spam at all in my Yahoo account, but for some reason, they have been cropping up like crazy lately. And I do mean crazy, as in they must be crazy to think anyone could be taken in by their idiotic schemes.
I once opened one of these spam emails out of curiosity and found it to be full of improper grammar and spelling mistakes, with this particular email pretending to be from a lawyer who, wouldn't you know it, wanted me to send him my bank account number so he could deposit money into my account. Hello!!! How desperately stupid are these con artists? I thought of blocking the email addresses, but each one comes from a different address, so they have obviously thought of a way around that already.
Does anyone know of a way to filter out this garbage?

Prayer by St. Thomas Aquinas for thanksgiving after Holy Communion
Workman's prayer to St. Joseph
Glorious St. Joseph, model of all those who are devoted to labor, obtain for me the grace to work in a spirit of penance for the expiation of my many sins; to work conscientiously, putting the call of duty above my inclinations; to work with gratitude and joy, considering it an honor to employ and develop, by means of labor, the gifts received from God; to work with order, peace, moderation and patience, without ever recoiling before weariness or difficulties; to work, above all, with purity of intention, and with detachment from self, having always death before my eyes and the account which I must render of time lost, of talents wasted, of good omitted, of vain complacency in success, so fatal to the work of God. All for Jesus, all for Mary, all after your example, O Patriarch Joseph. Such shall be my watchword in life and in death. Amen.

O gentlest Heart of Jesus, ever present in the Blessed Sacrament, ever consumed with burning love for the poor captive souls in Purgatory, have mercy on the soul of your departed servant Joe. Be not severe in your judgement, but let some drops of Your Precious Blood fall upon him, and send, O merciful Savior, Your angels to conduct him to a place of refreshment, light and peace. Amen.

Consecrated Hands
"Because out of reverence towards this sacrament, nothing touches it, but what is consecrated; hence the corporal and the chalice are consecrated, and likewise the priest's hands, for touching this sacrament." - ST. THOMAS AQUINAS, Summa Theologica

Gmail has a very good spam filter. Since I started using it, almost no spam messages have made it to my inbox. Just as important, no legitimate messages have been marked as spam. I use a non-Gmail address as my primary address. All messages sent there are forwarded to my Gmail address, from where I download them with an email client or view them with my browser. You probably already have a Google account that you're using for this blog. It should be a simple matter to activate a Gmail address.
