Most persistent spam ever I'm assuming that this isn't for a Viagra support group How the hell do you do this?

Hello. I got tired of deleting the email from my inbox and this seemed to be the only way to get it to stop. I'm not entirely sure what comes next but I hope it doesn't result in more random emails from mysterious sources. Is there a next step to this or am I free to reclaim my internet connection again?

Not Greek at all. German, Welsh, and Polish is about it, I think. Maybe a bit of Czech.

Skills? Is this a job interview that I don't know about? I'm a second-grade teacher. I can wrangle up to 30 kids under the age of seven without too much trouble. I teach piano at the Boys and Girls Club so I guess you can add piano, guitar, bass, and percussion to the list. I write a little music.

...you're saying you don't have any combat or strategy skills?

Looks like I'll have to put you with the rudimentary training class once that's set up.

I don't know what strategy skills you are looking for. I was in the Risk club back in high school. Does that count?

I live in NYC and have never been mugged. Does that count, too?

No. It doesn't. Not when it comes to what we're facing.

I have been charged with readying our troops for combat. Our numbers are few, so everyone will be required to be proficient. As godlings, there are very real threats to our existence. My job is to ensure we stay alive.

Are you for real? Combat? I don't think I like the sound of that.

I agree. I am 100% for all of us staying alive.

Good to hear. Because there have already been people trying to kill us. I got shot at, personally, and was lucky the gunman had bad aim.

I'm glad you survived.

The thought's appreciated.

Am I to understand you're also lacking in self-knowledge? If so, I recommend studying up. Knowing your strengths and weaknesses will be vital.

[mr-bes.insanejournal.com]

I think I have plenty of self-knowledge, thank you. Perhaps just not this particular thing. I already plan to do some research right away. That is what the internet and libraries are for.

[heraldofthedeep.insanejournal.com]

That puts you ahead of some.

I'm at Princeton, presently, finishing my last year of undergraduate studies, but, once you've been worked into better shape, your training can begin.

Not to tell you how to do your job, Mr. Murphy, but you don't want this guy on the front lines. You want him on the walls. Or wall-equivalents. You know what I mean. Defense.

His placement will be determined once I've fully assessed his abilities.
