I thought I'd gotten past this when we opened a secure email account. I thought "It happens to banks and Hardee's and even gas station chains but it won't ever happen to my nice little secure internet system." I'd been waiting for the announcement that Eureka College had been taken over and was now the Bradley University Campus in Eureka. Or for Eureka, the city, to be officially renamed Yahoo, Illinois. It was ok when the college football bowl games started getting renamed things like the "Office Depot Bowl". I was even fine with Tom Cruise being bought out by L. Ron Hubbard's little Hollywood religion and Madonna moving from New Testament to Old with her new name but not my stable little internet company.
Right now I am trying to figure out how to open email through a company that, like everything else in this world, has been bought out by a more aggressive thriving company who in all likelyhood will be bought out by another, more aggressive thriving company sometime in the next sixteen minutes. Somehow I'm now working through wingnet instead. New protocols to learn, new format. I'll probably even need to learn to write with a new font.
And I'm the one whose supposed to be good at accepting change. Can't wait for Amanda to have to learn the new system.
All this is to say that if you are trying to contact Amanda or I through our "headsail" account, it may take us a while to respond.
Sincerely, Best Buy Jonathan

I just don't want to be bought out by a dot com. I want my personal self to be bought by a stable company. Which would be... Oh right I read the new york times business section today and pretty much that is noone. Very frustrating really. I'll choose someone and get back to you. It has to flow with my name.
