Proof if ever some people should not have computers.

Computer $500 - Internet Girl Friend Priceless (sent money to Nigeria and Malaysia LOL).

Bear with me I am just going to check to see;
If I have won the Euro Lotto Millions
sort out my long lost oil barren family members estate in Africa
I am fed up of confirming my bank details I wish they would stop disabling it.
 
Unbelievable! I remember when I went to Ghana a Nigerian told me guys spend hours and hours thinking up theses schemes. They say its effective because only greedy people fall for them. $200.000 was probably all this guy had left.

You got it dead-on salimbest83/candrwhite/g00fysmiley: Rich people are can be really stupid. Today I'll just go shove my motherboard in the microwave, turn it ON for a while and see if it still works and if it doesn't, i'll call the company complaining. I wonda if the mobo will cut back ON! DUHHH! Im'a shoot me some gophers and steal some stops signs on my way home from work today and maybe i'll get a raise.

Meanwhile, i'll send money to all the people that sent me spam today from third world countries today...
