True…or False…Spam…or Real Money…

To all of my friends, I do not usually forward messages, But this is from my friend
Pearlas Sandborn and she really is an attorney. If she says that this will work
it will work. After all, what have you got to lose?

READ BELOW.

SORRY EVERYBODY.. JUST HAD TO TAKE THE CHANCE!!! I’m an attorney, and I know
the law. This thing is for real. Rest assured AOL and Intel will follow through
with their promises for fear of facing a multimillion-dollar class action suit
similar to the one filed by PepsiCo against General Electric not too long ago.

Dear Friends:

Please do not take this for a junk letter. Bill Gates sharing his fortune. If
you ignore this, You will repent later. Microsoft and AOL are now the largest
Internet companies and in an effort to make sure that Internet Explorer remains
the most widely used program, Microsoft and AOL are running an e-mail beta
test. When you forward this e-mail to friends, Microsoft can and will track it
(if you are a Microsoft Windows user) for a two-week time period.

For every person that you forward this e-mail to, Microsoft will pay you
$245.00 For every person that you sent it to that forwards it on, Microsoft
will pay you $243.00 and for every third person that receives it, you will be
paid $241.00. Within two weeks, Microsoft will contact you for your address and
then send you a check.

I thought this was a scam myself, But two weeks after receiving this

e-mail and forwarding it on. Microsoft contacted me for my address and

within days, I received a check for $24,800.00. You need to respond before

the beta testing is over. If anyone can afford this, Bill gates is the man.

It’s all marketing expense to him. Please forward this to as many people as
possible. You are bound to get at least $10, 000.00 We’re not going to help them
out with their e-mail beta test without getting a little something for our time.
My brother’s girlfriend got in on this a few months ago. When Iwent to visit
him for the Baylor/UT game. She showed me her check. It was for the sum of
$4,324.44 and was stamped “Paid in full” Like I said before, I know
the law, and this is for real.

A Story About Lent

Each Friday night after work, Bubba would fire up his outdoor grill and cook a venison steak. But, all of Bubba’s neighbors were Catholic….And since it was Lent, they were forbidden from eating meat on Friday.
The delicious aroma from the grilled venison steaks was causing such a problem for the Catholic faithful that they finally talked to their priest.
The Priest came to visit Bubba, and suggested that he become a Catholic. After several classes and much study, Bubba attended Mass…..and as the priest sprinkled holy water over him, he said, “You were born a Baptist, and raised a Baptist, but now you are a Catholic.”
Bubba’s neighbors were greatly relieved, until Friday night arrived, and the wonderful aroma of grilled venison filled the neighborhood.
The Priest was called immediately by the neighbors, and, as he rushed into Bubba’s yard, clutching a rosary and prepared to scold him, he stopped and watched in amazement.
There stood Bubba, clutching a small bottle of holy water which he carefully sprinkled over
the grilling meat and chanted: “You wuz born a deer, you wuz raised a deer, but now you is a catfish.”
