I got this letter in my email today. I opened it for two reasons. One, it was from a friend. So I trusted that it was a genuine personal email. Or a really funny one that my friend thought worthwhile to send to me. Second reason was, I was scared that it would be a spam, letting me know that Moshiach is here and I have a ticket to Israel on the next flight. So I opened it... This is what I got:

Within two weeks, Microsoft will contact>you for your address and then send you a check.
... How long will it take until people begin to realize that this is all a load of garbage. I cannot believe that there are still people out there who fall for it.
BTW, I'm back from Cali. It was great. Will post later. Taking a Heiman's bus tonight to HOME! I'm so not interested in another trip now. But, the rest tommorrow will be good. I will post tons when I get settled. Lots happening. G-d I'm tired. Okay, this is getting stupid. Hey Steve! Get back to bed!!! Dr. Pepper is a good drink. I FOUND WALDO!!!
...Good night
