Spam o’ the day

Every once in a while, I take a browse through my spam filter to make sure nothing is getting accidentally trashed. You will be shocked to see what I received today. Shocked, I tell you.

I no longer get spam from Nigerian princes. Oh, no. American soldiers trying to give me a piece of Hussein’s riches. Oh boy!

Click on this link to read about even that took place here http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/middle_east/2988455.stm Basically since we are working for the American government we cannot keep these funds, but we want to transfer and move the funds to you, so that you can keep it for us in your safe account or an offshore account. We will divide the total funds in three ways, since we are 3 that is involved.

What a day… The whole family crossed over the bridge to have dinner at my sis’s place in MD. My father was very concerned about this trek, so he made sure to arrange carpools and help others arrange them as well. Everyone arrived successfully.

We started out with some cheesy appetizers, one of which I brought back from my adventure in Wisconsin. I stood around getting all filled up on cheese and crab dip before the hot dogs and hamburgers were done. There were dumplings, green bean salad, melons, pineapple, and lots of other food. We spent the afternoon watching football and admiring the greatness that is HD.

Also got some good gossips. No idea how reliable it is, but good stuff nonetheless. :)

QOTD: “Wow, look how crisp that yellow line is!”
