I think. My usernames have rarely been taken before I attempt to register them, so this is only a vague memory from making my first email address, neopets account, etc. when I was younger. So rather than coming up with something completely new, this girl most likely chose one of the alternatives that happened to be the exact same thing but with a number on the end. 73.

I've done this before, had a fake e-mail for Raven-Symone, and there was this like 25 year old woman saying how she was a big fan and how she might be the oldest big fan, and I talked to her like the whole summer in '05, and she even sent me (Raven) pics of her...and like she was saying how she lived in Las Vegas and how she could meet Raven in no time in L.A....but i didn't want it to get too far so i told her that I was Raven's cousin playing a trick on her. And I also got some other e-mails to...but I do agree Raven fans are pretty dumb because of the simple fact, Raven claims she cares about her fans...but i dunno, who really knows. Ha ha!

Rudi, now, she was an adorable child and is a beautiful young woman. Would you happen to have her email address? Wait...have you ever even WRITTEN about her?

I chortled when I saw it. My mom has no idea who Raven-Symone is, and I wouldn't, either, if it weren't for these children's letters.

I was so excited, and I read it over and over again, and I wrote back to him, thinking we were going to become pen pals. I was about 13, I think. He never wrote back, and I felt so used.

It would entertain me to no end replying to messages like this all day long... Maybe I'm just weird though. I think we all need to get our own fake quasi-celebrity email addresses.

But, judging from the way these letters are written, it would appear that most of the people writing them are, indeed, American. And I don't speak loudly to people who don't speak English. My retarded R-S fans comment didn't have anything to do with the previous comment. Wow, I never even thought of that, and – to be honest – I generally use the European style of Day Month, Year.

I suppose Joe's idea is much the same as speaking loudly to people who don't understand English, because they are obviously hard of hearing. Either way, he might want to rethink making fun of R-S' fans in quite those terms. Ummm . . . actually 73 means March 7 to many millions of people who are neither dyslexic nor American.

I really hope it does. Or, the person could be dyslexic, and "73" actually means "March 7th." That would also be acceptable. My god, Raven-Symone's fans are retarded. “73″ could mean “July 3rd.” I really hope it does. Or, the person could be dyslexic, and “73″ actually means “March 7th.” That would also be acceptable.

My god, Raven-Symone’s fans are retarded.
