Hon. Boone Pickens.

This is for your dedication and contribution,

Thanks, Boone. Glad to see my efforts are recognized and appreciated.

You might find it so very difficult to remember me.

How could I forget you, Boone? It was Paris in the spring. We were both very young. You were richer'n Croesus, even back then...

Though, it is indeed, a very long time. On my singular, I am much delighted and privileged to contact you again, after couple of years now.

Y'know, you don't talk much like a guy named Boone. You wouldn't be some sort of African, using ol' Boone's name, wouldja?

It takes fate, courage and God's fearing to remember old friends and at the same time, to show gratification to them, despite circumstances that made things, not worked out as we projected then.

Yeah. I never did get richer'n Croesus. But that's okay. I'm used to penury by now.

I take this liberty and medium to inform you that, the transaction we were pursing together, finally worked out by God's infinite grace & mercy and I decided to contact you, just to let you know.

Ummm... Glad to hear it turned out well, Boone. Whatever it was we were working on. Together. You, the guy that's richer'n Croesus, and me, the guy who usually makes his mortgage payment...

I have conscience as a human being, due to your tremendous effort and contribution to make things work out in retrospect.

Uhuh. Glad to hear that. I have conscience as a human being, too. I'd never want anybody to think that I was like some African, sitting in Lagos, trying to bilk people out of their itty bitty pittance bank accounts.

Meanwhile, I must inform you that, I am presently in DAVOS, Switzerland for the World Economic Forum and later to Luxemburg for numerous business negotiations and establishment.

Give my regards to the Luxembourgeois. It's been a long time since I was there. Hope you had a nice time in DAVOS. I'm at work right now, where I am every day.

I arrived few nights ago and checked inn, in a hotel and decided to go down to the hotel business centre to mail you.

None of your lackeys carries a laptop with wireless connectivity? I'm kinda surprised at that, Boone...

Now, with my sincere heart, I have raised and signed a Cashier's Bank Draft, to the value and tune of USD$800,000.00 (Eight hundred and twenty thousand US dollars only) in your name as COMPENSATION to your dedication, humanity and contribution, as it were, kindly note that this money is comprehensively insured to it real value of US$ 800,000.00 and in your name only as the beneficiary.

Well, shucks, Boone. I really appreciate that. Just drop it in the mail and I'll put it to good use. I promise. I won't even say nasty things about you anymore.

Please, contact NOW, my financial bank account manager, his name is Mr. Jose Maria Esq. E-mail:josemariaesq@walla.com Tele: +34 695 880 567

You only like me for three weeks? After all we meant to each other?

Mr. Boone Pickens.
