I got a couple texts today referring to a crush of some sort, both from an @live.com address.  Thought I would do some research and found a bit about it, most of it in this rather long thread:  http://malaysia.answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20080307202132AAqivot&cp=1

Appears to be a common issue.  Long story is that you can contact your carrier and have them block anything coming from a url and I also went to my sprint page to my messaging settings and added the live.com to my blocked messages.  The kicker is that you will get charged 20 cents a message for each of these texts and if you respond to them, you will be charged again.  Don’t ignore them and don’t reply. 

The Athertons are two brothers and a sister who race in the world cup DH circuit.  They ride for Commencal Animal team who put this video together of their training area.  My understanding is farmer Jack is the man who owns the land they build their trails on.
