| I was just reminded that I still have one of these things (a blog) and I realized i haven't written anything on so long.
Not a whole lot new to report at the moment. I'm writing this at 5:39 am so my brain isn't quite awake yet. More to come later... | | |

SanDisk Cruzer 1GB USB Flash Drive - $8

Let the shopping begin!

| 1. Take home a computer over the weekend, reformat it and reinstall windows, and don't report to me that no drivers were installed until Monday morning, effectively crippling the computer from any productivity or even going online. Continue to sit there and play dumb while the boss frantically tries to fix it while a deadline looms in a few hours.
2. Label a "frequently asked questions" (FAQs) file as "FAGs.html"
3. Store your design files in a folder called "CRAP"
4. Don't test a site and send it off a brand new client full of bugs.
5. Don't finish a training book your boss asked you to read months ago.
6. Send off a powerpoint to a multi-million dollar client with the first word on the title page spelled wrong... which you had to just copy and paste from an original.
I'm now convinced that college degrees and portfolios are absolutely worthless for judging potential employees. | | |
| Thank you. I am so grateful that you are doing such a fine job of protecting our homes, businesses, borders and streets that you have so much free time these days. I'm glad we're so safe that you have nothing better to do than
to sit around with radar guns on the most empty stretch of road in the
morning, with an absurdly low speed limit, protecting our fine city from
the dangers of the near impossibility of an accident.
Thanks guys. Keep up the great work.

Dear Yin,
I am Barrister Larry Morgan a solicitor at law. I am the personal attorney
to Mr. Douglas Yin,a national of your country, who used to work with shell
development company in Nigeria and as well a one time secret agent in
transferring of money overseas for the Late head of state of Nigeria {Late
Gen.SANI ABACHA}.Before his death On the 21st of April 1999 [my client,his
wife and their three children were involved in a car accident along sagbama
express road in which all occupants of the motor died}. My client
{Douglas}deposited as family belongings in a CONSIGNMENT {iejewelries} the
sum of $10m in Standard Finance & Security Company here in Nigeria for
himself, with the hope of transferring it to his country as soon as he is on
leave.
Since his death I have made several enquiries to your embassy to locate any
of my clients extended relativesthis has also proved unsuccessful.
After these several unsuccessful attempts, I decided to trace his last name
over the Internet, to locate any member of his family hence I contacted you.
I have contacted you to assist in repatriating the money and property left
behind by my client before they get confiscated or declared unserviceable by
the Bank where these Consignment (Money) were Deposited. Particularly, the
Standard Finance & Security Company where the deceased Deposited the
Consignment valued at about 10million dollars has issued me a notice to
provide the next of kin within the next ten official working days.
Since I have been unsuccessful in locating the relatives for over 3 years
now I seek your consent to present you as the next of kin of the deceased
since you have the same last name so that the proceeds of this
Consignments(Money) valued at 10million dollars can be claim by you and then
you and me can share the money. 40% to me and 60% to you I have all
necessary legal documents that can be used to back up any claim we may make.
All I require is your honest cooperation to enable us see this deal through.
I guarantee that this will be executed under a legitimate arrangement that
will protect you from any breach of the law.
Note that it does not necessarily matter, whether you are biologically
related to the deceased or not. The fact that your name has something to do
with his, is an express ticket to your assuming the kinship to the deceased.
As you can bear with me, a next of kin to one, may be a Parent, Sister,
Brother, Close Relative, Associate, Friend or even a Well-wisher. So,
whether you are related to him or not is never a barrier to your kinship in
the transaction.
Please get in touch with me by my private email address:lmorgan1@myway.com
Best regards,
Barrister:Larry Morgan(Esq)
