The Second to Last Word

I HATE these emails. I am not sure why people still send these things to me. I hate them. They are usually not funny. Wait. They are never funny, let alone THAT funny.

“FW:” is basically friendly SPAM as far as I am concerned. Sometimes it is hidden, right? “RE: FW:” is the usual tip-off. DELETE.

Only one good thing has ever come from a “FW:” in known history. My wife. That is a different story I will not go into here. Let is be known that that was the last time I “read” an email with “FW:” in the subject line (that was not related to work of course!).

I am not sure how many times anyone needs to read “You know you are (insert ethnicity of choice here) if…” emails. HELLO?

I will say that I do enjoy corresponding with multi-millionaire African Princes and Princesses and other heirs of large forutnes. Sometimes they are in the UK (more believable location). They are really fun to talk to. I strongly suggest doing that. I mean, they seem like nice people and have some extra cash to give away…

I am considering a new venture in Africa: Estate Planning & Asset Protection. It seems there is a real need that has not been met there. It is rather strange to me though as the figures quoted don’t much correspond with the images on TV, documentaries, news reports, etc… I think the media may have it all wrong. Anyone else want to join me in this venture? There seems to be much work to do and why not me?

You have the Last Word…
