Lori,
I had the best laugh today reading this!!!!! I am getting at least a couple of these e-mails a week, maybe it is time to have some fun too. Would you mind if I just copy your text and send it? Normally, I just delete those e-mails but you are so right.....
Thanks for the idea - if all of us did it, maybe we would not have to hear about all the people who actually believed ....
Fred

Feel free, Fred....but it would be a lot more fun if you could maybe ease him into it a little slower....I think I shot my guns a little too soon....skeered him off...lol...

Susieq...you won't have to worry about messin' with me unless you're a scammer...grin...

Brian...unfortunately, most of these guys ARE intelligent...and getting more organized, and a little scary...

Glad you're all enjoying it...it was a TON of fun to play...I was kind of worried about writing "fiction"...cuz anyone who knows ME knows my TRUTHS are stanger then fiction....LMBO
