I'd Like to Buy the World a Random Coke!

Probably most of you are familiar with the Nigerian 419 Scams. You'd have to be, if you've been around the internet for any time at all. Those Poor Nigerians! So much money in their Ministry of Finance, and always trying to give it away to people in America!

To find out more about Nigerian 419 Scams and to read lots and lots of funny tales of plain folks like you and me who decided to 'scam the scammers' go and check out http://www.bustedupcowgirl.com/scampage.html . She has been a delightful source of fun for me!

Yesterday, along with phone calls from people I had no desire to talk to (old neigbhors from 7 years ago, some female in Kansas that I knew once for 5 minutes but who still has my number in her phone book and calls when she gets bored), I got the most wonderful winning offer from the Coca-Cola Company! I was so excited! I just have to share it with everyone. You have to put up with the bad spelling, odd phrasing, and repetitive/bad cut and paste job on this thing. These people are nothing if not sloppy! Enjoy:
