Hola! Yo no estoy en España! Sorry, let me try that again. Hello! I am not in Spain!
Following my short article on anarchy, in which I mentioned "cyber anarchy," some computer-hacking # (or #) wiped my reader emails, and sent my readers/friends a spurious email claiming that I was stranded in Valencia, Spain, and in dire need of mucho dinero.
First of all, I am not in Spain. Second, if I was, I wouldn't lose my wallet, and third, I would never hit my readers up for money using such atrocious English. For example: "I misplaced my wallet and other valuables on my way to the hotel I lodged." Puh-leeze -- give me a little credit. Support Canada Free Press
