Some nice man in Hong Kong wants me to help him liberate 11 million USD from an inactive bank account.

How lucky can a person get ? :lol: :lol:

He probably needs the money to pay for all those Indian call centres that keep ringing me up about the problems I’m not having with the internet.
The world looks so different after learning science. For example, trees are made of air, primarily. When they are burned, they go back to air, and in their flaming heat is released the flaming heat of the Sun which was bound in to convert air into tree.

As part of D-Day commemorations 34 Dakota aircraft are flying from Duxford to France.

They should go in airspace above my abode, looking forward to it. :D
