Look keep this between you and me but I`m also in for a windfall..

The son of a prince in an african island has $100,000,000 locked in an account and just needs me to send him $100 for the legal fees to release it to me... I`ll be rich soon!

Watch this space ;-)

Since copping a Gmail acct. this past August, I was down to no spam,
until just after the holiday shopping season; I suspect some of the
"legit" mail order joints passed my email around, as I am now getting a dozen
a day in my gmail spam folder. I used to get hundreds a day via our
previous hillbillyheaven ISP provider...anyway, I get the usual Dearest
Christian Man, You have been selected, blah, blah, blah...but, I thought
this BMW phish was pretty funny. Who dreams this crap up and furthermore,
do they really think anyone is gonna buy this crap?

So...to be a good sport and get my big prize stuff, I filled out the form:

VERIFICATION FORM:
1.) FULL NAME: motordavid/Ol'UncleMotor
2.) AGE: 60 and change
3.) SEX: Yes, I like it! Less frequent than it used to be, but I'm fookin middle aged!
4.) ADDRESS: Don't wear them very often anymore.
5.) COUNTRY: Yes, I live in the country, 7 months a year.
6.) PHONE: Ah, I don't think so.
7.) OCCUPATION/POSITION: Retired Bum...I like "it" in any position that I can still get into...



Why did this seem like an on line dating form?!

Back to Friday cruise, from the home of Everyday is Friday afternoon!

At least they could have made up a decent email account. I don't think BMW uses Hotmail.
