THE TALK TO YOURSELF THREAD. (NOWT)     

goldfinger - 09 Jun 2005 12:25

Thought Id start this one going because its rather dead on this board at the moment and I suppose all my usual muckers are either at the Stella tennis event watching Dim Tim (lose again) or at Henly Regatta eating cucumber sandwiches (they wish,...NOT).

Anyway please feel free to just talk to yourself blast away and let it go on any company or subject you wish. Just wish Id thought of this one before.

cheers GF.

Anyone else received one.

Just received an e-mail purporting to be from Mrs.Safia Farkash Gaddafi wife of the now deposed president of Libya, Moammar Gadhafi (I suppose as he is dead, that counts as deposed, after all you can't get much more deposed than that, can you) anyway I digress, Mrs Gaddafi is inviting me to forward my bank details in order to assist her and her family to transfer millions of $'s out of Algeria where she is in residence.
Of course I would be richly rewarded.
The e-mail continued to explain how this money is needed to support herself and her family in their hour of need (I didn't know there were many still alive).
I could not continue further, due to the tears in my eyes blurring the message.

As a human being, with forgiveness in my heart I will obviously try to assist her and her family in her time of need, after all there is good in everyone if you look deep enough.

NOTE.........Those who know me from these pages, are no doubt aware of my seriousness of that last paragraph!

But seriously, the e-mail has just been received and I just wonder how many people will actually fall for it.
You would think the scammers would at least look for a more deserving cause to con people with.

Gaddafi family will sue NATO

The family of the late Colonel Gaddafi has reportedly said that they will sue NATO in the International Military Court on war crime charges.

Marcel Ceccaldi, the former Libyan leaders family lawyer, was quoted by French radio station Europe1 saying: The relatives of the late dictator will file a suit on war crime charges. NATO helicopters opened fire on Gaddafis convoyThis convoy did not pose any threat to civilians. It was an operation to eliminate the Libyan leader, planned by the North Atlantic alliance.

Mnamreh,

Sorry can't do.
I deleted the e-mail then emptied my delete box, as I don't like e-mails like that sitting there.

I am very technophobic, but if anyone knows how to get such a deleted e-mail back, please post and I will attempt to do so.

Just found a link to a fraud site that has details to a very similar, but slightly different worded e-mail scam regarding Gaddafi's wife due to it being circulated in June, prior to Gaddafi's death.

Cheers Greek.

Aids,

Are you waiting at table along side the colonel in Kebab house, or part of the cabaret.

Your humour should go down a bomb.

Well done the part-timers St Paul's chancellor Canon Dr Giles Fraser 'to resign'

The chancellor of St Paul's Cathedral is to step down from his post, the BBC understands.

Canon Dr Giles Fraser, who has been sympathetic to the protest camp outside the London landmark, is expected to announce his resignation within days.

Differences over the handling of the protest are thought to have prompted his decision, says the BBC's religious affairs correspondent Robert Pigott.

I generally find that the boy Fraser is one of the few contributers to Thought for the day that talks some sense, less god preaching usually.

The American POW who chose China

At the end of the Korean War, thousands of prisoners from both sides faced a choice - whether to return home or remain with their captors. David Hawkins was one of a handful of American GIs who chose to go to China.

Brilliant news.

They have saved the EU and the Euro.

Discussion heard in the operating room of an EU hospital.

Nurse, "Doctor, what can we do, we can't stop the Greek patient hemorrhaging".
Doctor, "He needs more blood".
Nurse, "But Doctor, the more we put in, the more comes out".
Doctor, "Thats, not the point, we must give the impression that we are saving the patient".
Nurse, "But we are running short of blood, what happens if any Italian, Portuguese, Spanish or Irish patients need a transfusion".
Doctor, "We will cross that bridge when we come to it".
Nurse, "But surely your realise that this patient is dead".
Doctor, "The patient is not dead till I say so"
Nurse, "But his pulse stopped days ago, and yet we still pump him full of blood, surely we could save the blood for patients that might need it and we have a chance of saving".
Doctor, "Its all about, impressions, what do you think would happen to our other patients, if we admit that this patient is dead, they would go down hill fast due to lack of confidence".
Nurse, "So we just keep pumping him full of blood till theres no blood left"
Doctor, "Now you've got it".
Nurse, "Then what do we do".
Doctor, "After a few more days, when there is no more blood left, and the other patients start to die off, we admit that the patient is dead".
Nurse, "Then what happens".
Doctor,"Simple. We put all the blame on the patient. After all its not our fault he got himself in such a state, pure overindulgence"
Nurse, "But if all the patients die, what happen to us, we won't have jobs".
Doctor,"Well that won't bother me, Ive made so much money, I'm retiring to the Bahamas or anywhere else not in Europe, and I'm taking my pension and of course a huge compensation pay off with me".
Nurse, "But what about me and all the others who won't be so lucky".
Doctor, "No idea and to be perfectly honest, I don't give a ****.

There are now more than 7 billion human beings on the planet at the present time. Apparently, there will be about 9.5 billion by 2050

When I was born, I was the 2,376,975,087th person alive on Earth and the 75,093,805,822nd person to have lived since history began.

And everyone has been different to everyone else. So that's nice.

We used to have 4% fall a day during last few months. Can we start recovering the lost ground?
