    yeah those are always funny to read. i like the one where if you send someone $5 and you'll get $100 back in the next week. Whats that called a pyramid sheme? when i first got online i attucaly was going to try that but never got around to it. oh yeah and i like the one where they want to start charging for aol instant messages or ICQ if you donm't send out an email petition.

    I don't doubt he knows about the emails I send out... you never know what they're hiding behind this sleek interface and learning about us. Now where's my money!
