Lyrics

Met a girl and she makes me feel alright
She’s the one I’ve been waiting all my life
But in the back of my head
I think she fakes it just to make it feel nice
I take a good look again
And she’s aiming at my heart with a knife

And she says….
So she says…..

Look in her eyes and feel the sorrow and the pain
The tears are rolling down her cheeks and coming down like rain
I wanna save her soul
And let her know
I feel the same
But she don’t listen to a word
And she don’t wanna be rearranged

So she said…..
So she said…..
So she says…..

blinkbox – The Making of the Dragon Skull

blinkbox – The Making of the Dragon Skull

 

To celebrate the launch of ‘Game of Thrones Season 3’ on blinkbox we made a 40-foot long dragon skull and plonked it on the Jurassic Coast in Dorset!

Some people didn’t believe the skull was real so we made this video to show how it was built.

We hope you enjoy this video and the amazing third season of Game of Thrones: https://blinkbox.me/GoTseason3

Marriott Reservation Confirmation Email Malware Virus Warning @Marriott Booking system has been hacked

Houston Marriott Westchase Reservation Confirmation Email Virus Warning

Getting false Marriott reservations? Their booking system has been hacked, rep told me. Links to phishing attack.

Beware of ay emails you receive that are suspicious. Especially ones from Marriott which are for reservations you did not make.

Reports are coming in that the email is false and has malware/virus links. The Washington Post is now reporting that Marriott is the victim of a phishing scheme.  So far there is no consistent story here. System hacked, phishing scheme, which is it?  Here is the link to the Washington Post.

I have one of these emails and it shows a link as

https://www.kreitner.at/www.marriott.com.reservation.lookupReservation.mi.SCID.20111021t020600000109.vsretype.c.vsresect.rd.html?unwto.org/ethics/responsible/en/responsible.php?subop=7&SCID=214670276838900000064

www.kreitner.at/ is the first clue that there is a problem. DO NOT COPY AND PASTE THIS LINK INTO YOUR BROWSER.

The best course is to go directly to the hotel website and check on your reservation.

If you receive the one for the Houston Westchase hotel:
