if this is to appear on a tv show, i can't see the harm in it, or at least investigating it up to the point where they ask you to whip out the checkbook.

Bill Murray of Saturday Night Live and Ghost Busters (among many others) once commented in an interview (paraphrasing) "Given the choice between being rich and famous, I'd pick rich every time".

That would be "action figures". Very collectable

nevermind famousity on the telly- I'm going to send my bank account info to the widow of the late Nigerian finance minister. She emailed me and needs my help getting the stolen millions (of what, she didn't say) out of the country. She and her attorney have graciously offered to share it with me.

I wonder if I can get a kiln built into my yacht?

HAH! being on the computer at your time of night must be affecting your thinking ;) why would you want to work when on your yacht?

It would have to be a pretty big yacht to keep your kiln level, huh?

The nigerian lady likes me, too. Too bad she's in such a bind. LOL
