Thursday Night Internet Hoax Hall-Of-Shame

I received an E-Mail about an hour ago from a (fictional) lady over in Africa. She stated that if I want $2.5 million for my charitable organization then all I need to do is to contact her via a reply to her E-Mail and then she will in turn give me the essentials to contact the Bank in Abidjan Cote d’Ivoire in West Africa.

If you believe that then I’ve got the cool sum of 475 million East African Shillings that I’ll be awarding to the 108TH caller at 1-866-U-R-SHAMMED.

The sad part of it all is that the E-Mail will receive thousands of responses worldwide from unsuspecting people who just want to get rich quick, but they will end up losing whatever money they spend in an attempt to get the money that doesn’t exist.

The Major’s Walk-A-Thon

Sky: Sunny & Clear
Temperature: 78°F
Relative Humidity: 67%
Winds: E 9 MPH
Barometric Pressure: 29.97 Rising

My thoughts:

1.  NO – Your eyes are not deceiving you. This is really an edition of ‘The Major’s Walk-A-Thon’. I just had to take advantage of this extremely unusual cool and dry air over Homestead this late in the winter season (which incidentally I forecasted with precision accuracy nearly a week ago). When dewpoints reach the lower-60s in late-May in Homestead you just know that you are living through a strange weather phenomenon. Of course if you have no clue what a dewpoint is then you probably just think that it’s really sunny outside !  8)

2.  Before I even ventured on this ‘Walk-A-Thon’ I went over to Florida City (where all of the food is), and I ate the mother of all MASSIVE breakfasts to end all MASSIVE breakfasts big and small – at Denny’s !  I walked in, I was treated with love, care, and respect, and I ate one of the biggest meals that I can remember in recent short-term memory. Everything was just oh-so-perfect with this breakfast experience – including the environment, the surrounding clientele, and the rockin’ music that was playing in the background. I think I found my new favourite breakfast hang-out joint on future Saturday (or holiday) mornings.

3.  I ate so much food that I just had to walk it all off, and so I did via a basic ‘old-school’ standard-issue 1.3-mile walk around the circumference of my beautiful neighbourhood. I did the walk in a little more than 23½-minutes, and I walked to the fantastic beat of my glorious Christian rock, pop, and hip hop music on my green 2GB iPod Shuffle. Editorial Comment Alert – If I were the Music Director of the main lobby of Life Pointe Church on Sunday mornings then I would play my iPod Shuffle in lieu of the current music selection on the iPod that has been played endlessly for about a year now. But that’s just me.

4.  One side of Lakeshore’s dumpsters were clean and empty. The other side were dirty, full, and overflowing onto the ground. Gee I wonder which side the City Of Homestead hasn’t gotten to yet ? !  The north side is anxiously awaiting with baited breath the emptying of our dumpsters.

5.  I guarantee at least one more edition of ‘The Major’s Walk-A-Thon’ this Summer – on location from the River Walk in San Antonio Texas. Look for it during the week of the 4TH Of July.

Bedtime Stories

It’s 8:44 PM on a Wednesday night as I begin tonight’s edition of the ‘Bedtime Stories’, and I’m gearing up for a MASSIVE day at work – a MASSIVE day of meetings !  I’m actually looking forward to it, as my career renaissance continues. The past 10 months has been the best 10 months (by far) of my entire 23-year Air Force / Department Of Defense career. It goes hand-in-hand with the best 21 months of my entire Life. I look back at August 2006 as the official month of my ‘Awakening’. It’s been ready-set-GO ! ever since being reborn on God’s fantastic journey for me.

Friday kicks-off the long Memorial Day holiday weekend, and I’m not going anywhere special. I’ll be right here blogging up a storm, so hang out with me if you have no special plans that will whisk you away to some exotic land far far away with no Internet access.

Tomorrow on the blog it’s our top-rated weekly feature – the ‘Thursday Night Internet Hoax Hall-Of-Shame’. Tomorrow I promise you no long horrific chain letter E-Mail that most of us already know is bogus. Instead I bring you a picture – a picture of an adorable cat – an adorable cat that measures 5 feet 9 inches in length and weighs in at 87 pounds !  Is it for real ?  Gather up your crew and surf on over to the blog tomorrow afternoon to see for yourself !

Don’t forget about the ‘Friday Night Blogroll Review’ where I go public with my favourite blog entries of the week from my favourite bloggers that are near and dear to me. I’m pretty sure that this dude and this dude and this dude will be on there, and I’ve also reserved a spot for this girl and this girl.

So that’s what’s comin’ up over the next 48 hours here on the blog. Have a wonderful Wednesday night everyone, and until we blog again remember this:
