#3 I've been getting a lot of these types from Nigeria and Sierra Leone. I send them all a variation of one of Muck4doo's letters. I've actually gotten a couple of replies telling me they don't understand my letter but they would still like my help. If I sent them my account information they couldn't do much with it 'cause there's not much money in it. Here's the start of one letter and Muck's response. I hope he doesn't mind but this is too good not to share.

#4 ROFL!

By the way, when I saw the title I was expecting to see a little maze--the kind you see on a paper placemat at a restaurant that gives the kids something to do while you are waiting for the pizza to come.

#7 He's having computer problems. He doesn't have one any more and has to post from the library where he is subjected to time limits and mean glares from the Head Librarian.

#9 If Mucky can afford a phone line and a Netzero connection, I'd foot the bill to send him an old computer.
