Now these telemarketing clowns are pitching satellite TV to my mobile phone. This time the caller ID read 949-256-9106.
This is getting quite annoying. And potentially expensive. And it looks like I’m going to have to set up a separate category for these telemarketing scams.
A stiff wind pushed against me as I rode home one day last week. Its strength and steadiness reminded me of a sea breeze and it surprised me how intensely I miss the sea.
The human remains found near the car of missing Johnston County woman Kelli Woolard were identified as Woolard, police say. Police say there were “no indications of foul play.”
If you’ll recall, Woolard’s car was in the parking lot of a day care center and her remains were found in the nearby woods. This was four miles away from her job at Duke Raleigh Hospital. I’ve seen nothing in the news to indicate she was a mother and I assume Woolard wasn’t into geocaching and so would not ordinarily be wandering through the woods. How is this not foul play? Or does “no indications” mean the Johnston County Sheriff is still gathering evidence?
I wonder if the autopsy revealed how she died. Heart attack, maybe? As a nurse, wouldn’t she know how to get to the nearest hospital?
Questions, questions.
Update: Apparently Woolard had a drug problem and killed herself. Sorry to hear that.
Great. The Great Atlantic Warranty scumbags are now calling my cellphone with their warranty scam recording. Got one at 11:12 this morning. This is even more annoying than the calls to the house because each and every call costs me money. Today’s call came from the bogus caller id of 562-288-7125. The previous call was from 408-587-2143.
I’ve not given these jackasses much attention lately but that has now changed. Its time to give them the full-court press.
After some discussions with the current chair, I’ve volunteered to take over as the chair of Raleigh’s East CAC. I was nominated for the post at last night’s meeting but will be (hopefully) voted in next month.
The volunteer job consists of running a monthly meeting where things of interest to our neighbors are discussed: such as crime, new developments in the area, etc. I’ve been impressed with the number of regular attendees at the meeting so I’m hopeful there will be plenty of participation, too.
This all builds on my Raleigh Neighborhood College experience so I’m glad to have an opportunity to put it to use. And I get to work with Charlene Willard again. How could I say no?
