Default A Babushka's Revenge!

A few days ago I made a derogatory comment about a Russian Babushka and her enforcement of a "No Foto" policy on another WCI Forum thread. Little did I know that this would quickly come back and bite me square on the patootie. Shortly after that post I was informed that I had a Trojan virus on my Out West Gallery web page. Sure enough, somewhere in Russia someone had inserted an extra line of text on all my Gallery's HTML pages. Thankfully, we got it all straightened out but I just have to ask...... do you think that some Russian forum member read my comment and decided that I needed a little Ruskie Payback in the form of some digital H1N1?

Hopefully, this will never happen again because I swear I will never make another negative comment about some foreign, short, fat, old lady in a hair hat dressed in an unknown number of wool layers and wearing felt lined boots who's second job, besides stripping film out of tourists cameras, is spent shoveling snow into the Neva river all the while badgering parents passing by that they don't have their children dressed warm enough! I promise!

I guess one could say that was one helluva coincedence if one believes in them......which I for one do not.

They probably just wanted your pictures the stealth way!

Just great Lynn, Now all of the millions that visit your blog, will probably be coming down with the same ailment. The Feds probably don't have a shot for that one either.

keeping my fingers crossed, Tom E

No problem Tom. It was only on our Out West Gallery site not the Blog. It's been fixed.

Well I look at that too Lynn, Just not as much. Not as many Pics. Did you see toycarvers head from your video? Kris did a great job.

Have a great Thanksgiving. Tom
