total sum after we finish this business. Please reach me back via my personal address
williamcheg99@yahoo.com.hk (http://webmail.br.org/src/compose.php?send_to=williamcheg99%40yahoo.com.hk) OR williamcheg73@aol.com (http://webmail.br.org/src/compose.php?send_to=williamcheg73%40aol.com) Thank you.
Sincerely,
Mr. William Cheung

I know it is legitimate because it does not come from Nigeria. Plus he gave me his real name.
How hard can it be to track down a Mr. Cheung in Hong Kong?

<singing> I'm in the money... :D

And I've got some ocean front property in Kansas for sale if you're interested! :03:

[Platapus]

As soon as I get my easy 22 million, we can do a deal! :D

Take your time! Besides, it might take me awhile to move Oklahoma and Texas out of the way to get to the ocean anyways! ;)

I met with Mr. Cheung recently on a visit to HK and he said the cheque is in the mail.

Sweet! :D

Dear Sir,
please do not bother me with the offer of petty 44.5 million dollars. I am rich beyond your wildest dreams and that amount equates to my DAILY spending budget. As a matter of fact the time I spent to type this response has cost me about $100,000. Please, reply to this email with your whole name, address and the equivalent of your social security number so I can submit it to my lawyers.

They will be contacting you shortly with a bill in regards to wasting my time.

Sincerely,

conus00

My usual answer to emails like this one. :D

Is it genuine or not - visit my Amazon Marketplace (through the subsim link, obviously) and purchase my latest book -

How Not Yo Get Conned Online, Twice, For Dummies!


In fact, as we're friends, skip the Amazon bit, just PM me your bank details and mother's maiden name and your address and I'll do the hard work for you... :yeah:

I'll take the sailboat in the first one. Much more economical and seaworthy!

[Raptor1]

You should send the reply I posted in Xabba's old thread a while ago.

I wish I got some of those... :wah:

excellent choice, the shipman series.
completelly carbon fibers, no fiberglass. stronger and lighter than fiberglass boats. first sailboat with a retractable keel for docking in shallow harbours and especially usefull for those secret spots that no other sailboat can reach. plus a complex control system that allows for only one crew member (electric winches, onboard computer for automatic sail adjustment) and of course Luxury with a capital L, L for ladies
The shipman 150 model (52m length) costs € 36 000 000, and people order them like bread :D

Well, I've got $10 bucks! Do you do home layaway? :rotfl2:

for 10$ I could weld 2 barrels on your car. I get barrels for free, the chemical consumption is outrages here and the less barrels that have to be taken away, the less a company pays for removal. And a 4m two-by-four screwed onto the roof for a mast and you're set to go. just steal a tablecloth from your grandmother for a sail

The big problem with carbon composite masts is that they can and will conduct electricity... Ill leave the rest for you to figure out. ;)

Hmmm, I think I'll pass! :hmmm:

Yes, but that electricity is power that can be harnessed and used to keep batteries recharged for those days when the sail can't be hoisted. Beats, sitting dead in the water anyways!

the masts are electrically isolated from the rest of the hull. Its basicaly a lightning rod by itself, connnected to the keel which directs the power into the sea and not the boat. and there's an outer coating of some chemicals, which I am not paid to know about, that also insulates the composite from any power sources

the batteries themselves would need a seperate boat to carry them, to store that much power, if you had lightning in mind
