Jon, if you feel bad about not getting the emails on money laundering, 
lotteries you've won, free money just all you gotta do is... Well, I can 
forward all of mine to you! How's that for a buddy!

I never ever open any attachment from anyone I do not know...never ever... 

Still it is curious that the people who send this crap out must know 
that it is not working. Why do they still do it?  I get the same letters 
from several senders..

phunny for sure..
