[Spam] A funny story about on-line casino!

[Anonymous]

Hi, friends! my name is Paul. I live in Sidney. Our firm sells footwear and it's not very large. We always talk about lotteries and occasional winnings in the Internet. Few days ago we decided to hold an experiment. Each of us including me put $10 on the table and I decided to prove them that it is impossible to win in the Internet casino. We decided to find casino at random. We found link . We were playing three hours staring at our monitors! And great luck! We succeeded!!! Each of us has won $320. And now we have a tradition to play this casino on Fridays! That's cool! And in addition, our workers became more friendly to each other.

And thus it continues...

.... and then ELRIC drew his hungry sword, Stormbringer, and slew them all!! he took their casino earnings and bought himself a new ship, a new crew, and sailed off into some eternal sunset...

*the end*

:twisted:

So wait, what's not large, the firm or the footwear?

You've got to admire someone who can sell tiny slippers to sylphs and trainers to dunny spiders. Takes nerve, too.

And now the firm's gone out of business - should have had a policy on net abuse...

And who is this "Sidney" chap they're all living inside of? That just seems like a breach of health and safety to me. I hope he got a cut of their winnings.

The webzine I run has also recently become victim to its very own spam member. I guess I should be flattered that it gets enough visits to warrant such things, but regardless, it's bloody annoying!

(1) MrM, I do believe your mind does work like an equation derived from the Mandelbrot set! :)

(2) CrowSeerGuessed (is he budding off, like a coelenterate?): I suspect this was a spam from The Numskulls (spelling deliberate). See 'Beezer' comic c.1970. I, worryingly, remember them :)

(3) I personally guarantee that if correspondents each send me $10 I will most definitely 100% spend it for them. It's safer than the current proposal.

You might get a tenner from me, if you do. I usually give money to panhandlers depending on the audacity and invention of their story.
Seems only fair. One guy in New Orleans, when I asked him how much he made a day, said he only made about a hundred bucks a day in NO and made about three hundred a day in New York, but the weather was better down here. He got ten bucks off me for that. A guy who tried to sell me dope outside the much-missed Mandarin Books once told me such a good, convincing story that I gave him the money to go and get me the grass he was offering. I've often wondered if he ever came back with it. I didn't hang around to find out... I suppose I'd be insulted by someone who took me for a regular run of the mill sucker, but someone who shows me respect should get respect back, the way I see it...
I'd send $10 for a good story, but how would I know the money was going to the original spieler ? That's the problem with the net.

Oh, yes, I forgot to add -- I stay in St James's, at my club, when I'm in London, these days. It's a nice location and much, much cheaper than the Ritz. But the Ritz is just around the corner. People were being asked not to give money to the guy who usually sat there -- it only encourages them. It seemed fair to me to encourage him so I would always give him a fiver whenever I saw him. Keep it up, mate, I would say. Don't let them move you on.
They're not really hungry, people say, they're telling lies to get your money. Well, that's how I've made MY money for over forty years. All I'm doing is recognising a fellow talent.

I heard a great story about Joe Ely, the musician. He pays panhandlers for their signs, with a value that varies according to how interesting the sign is- $30 for an interesting sign, $20 for an average one. Apparently he keeps them in his studio.

*forgive the gushing, but... when i read poetic replies like that, it just inspires me* :oops:

I do my simple best, sir.
