This site is tons of fun. If you haven’t yet you need to and try out AT&T’s Text-to-Speech demo.

My spam filters are usually pretty good at catching all the stuff I don’t want to see.  Somehow this junk e-mail slipped by the spam filters.  It is a Nigerian scam and the person claims to really be in Nigeria.  I think that is a first for me.  The other ones I have read have claimed to be from lots of other countries but I don’t remember any of them being from Nigeria.  I wrote back to the honorable Barrister Dan Kneece.  I will let you know if he responds back.  Here is our correspondence thus far:

 Here is my response:

Dear Barrister Dan Kneece,

Thank you for sending me news about Frank.  Frank left us 10 years ago to live and work in Africa.  He always had big dreams and he always said Africa was the place for people with big dreams.  I always thought he was a damn fool but it appears that he became quite successful.  Sadly, he never was a good driver and it comes as no surprise that he died in an auto accident.

Frank owes me quite a bit of money so I am more than pleased to assist you.  Please let me know how I might be of assistance.

Sincerly,

M. Tai

Black Friday.  One of the biggest shopping days of the year if not the biggest.  Lots of deals to be had today.  Amazon.com has some amazing deals.  Check out the link for some great savings.

Type your digits into this site and it will tell you what your number spells.  If your number was 428-6947 when people ask for your number you could say “I bum zip” I am not sure what that means but hey what is easier to remember 428-6947 or “I bum zip”?

WWJD? He would create a website and call it God Tube. Just like You Tube but you won’t go to hell for watching it.
