I'm only asking because the Weir Foundation has named me their beneficiary and wants to give that to me.
I have to know if it's worth my while.
Dear Beneficiary
My Wife Christine and I are donating £550,000 to you.Contact us via my wife email at (Wouldn't_you_ BBs_like_to_know@I_know_and_ you_don't.com) for further details.
Best Regards,
Colin & Christine Weir•

Dear Beneficiary, huh?
If I were to donate £550,000 to someone, I'd at least take the time to learn his/her name.
BTW, can you copyright your "best regards"?

Huh! They offered me £1,500,000 but when I emailed
fund.christineweir@foxmail.com I never heard back from them.
I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.

555,000 sounds like the amount I've gains and lost collectively on all of my diets

SSS, you will either be amused or horrified by this, or both.
http://www.scribd.com/doc/189884660/Iow ... d-v-Wright
While representing Floyd Lee Madison in a criminal case in 2011, [lawyer Robert Allan Wright Jr.] was presented with documents purporting to evidence that Madison was the beneficiary of a large bequest from his long-lost cousin in Nigeria. Madison represented to Wright that upon payment of $177,660 in taxes owed on the inheritance in Nigeria, the sum of $18,800,000 would be released to Madison. He asked Wright to represent him in securing the transfer of the funds from Nigeria. In consideration for a fee equal to ten percent of the funds recovered, Wright agreed to represent Madison in the Nigerian transaction.
Suitguy is not bitter.
feels he represents the many educated and rational onlookers who believe that the hysterical denouncement of lay scepticism is both unwarranted and counter-productive
The problem, then, is that such calls do not address an opposition audience so much as they signal virtue. They talk past those who need convincing. They ignore actual facts and counterargument. And they are irreparably smug.

I had to read several pages before discovering, to my complete surprise, that no money was ever received from Nigeria.
This lawyer should have been disbarred for complete and utter stupidity.

The worth of 550,000 pounds ? That depends on what it is 550,000 of. Obviously 550,000 pounds of coke is more valuable than 550,000 pounds of pot.

I think that's not a criterion for disbarment.

If it were we'd have just 25% of the lawyers we do now.
