I got a chuckle from this one!

As I’ve mentioned previously, I receive innumerable emails daily (but on only one of my email addresses) wherein I’m offered untold millions just for transmitting all my personal and financial information. And always for a worthy cause!

Here’s one which generated a chuckle!!!

“I'm Mrs. Delight George, deceased 50-year-old widow of Mr. George. My husband is in the oil export business and I worked as the CEO of Park Fuel Corporation. Doing business and making money was our priority, and we didn’t care much about other people. But since I lost my husband and my two children in a car accident seven years ago, I found a new desire to help orphans in orphanages /widows / refugees and caring families.”

“I am ready to donate the sum of the EUR 12 500 000 for development and helping the poor, homeless and less privileges in your country.”

First time ever getting an offer from a ghost!

Loren, I lived in Baguio for a number of years as a child (graduated from Brent School in 1965). Any chances of receiving pics from you of the Brent School campus and Trinidad Valley would be greatly appreciated. jdvella@outlook.com

I would be happy to send her spirit a listing of US charities that would love to have her money. But where does she (did she) live - Nigeria - surely they need money for their orphans...

I live on Munoz Drive, just off Naguilian Road. I'll try to get pictures for you, but it won't be right away.
