a scam that has been making the rounds in Russia makes it to the US shores. Almost anything stolen including cars, are ransomed back to the owner. Another version of the scam is to call folks in the stolen phones list and claim to be holding the phone owner for ransom when the owner is not really being held at all. But The family doesn't know that because they don't have a phone to call you with for hours. Lesson to learn? Keep as many numbers as you can in code so as not to reveal their relationship to you. Ahh, What we learn from Europe.

forget about jail and prison time for the multiple offenders, a total waste of time and resources funded by our tax dollars. Rather then confining these lowlifes, decades or forever, at our taxpayer expense(s)...offer these lowlifes the choice, years of hard labor...or the loss of their didgets (fingers/toes/ whatever else...that will remind them every day/hour/minute, the rest of their lives, of the crimes they committed and the suffuring they caused...period! Will these lowlifes be welcomed into any community...I doubt it! Actions of those didgetless "persons'" will speake louder then words...either they are "reformed" or they are not...with multiple didget losses on them. Or we can simply put a tatoo or brand on their heads, indicating for the world to see, their criminal histories!

Daily Horoscope for December 26

Leo

Despite the festivities, something is nagging away at the back of your mind and you won't feel happy until you've done something about it. Do your best to tackle it over the next three weeks while it will benefit from the influence of Mercury backtracking through your sixth house. Your daily routine is filled with an increasing number of details, messages, and information, much of which will be confusing. All you can do is change your attitude to whatever is worrying you.
