After many, many years of Nigerian scam letters, it seems the originators of such scams are wising up, albeit only just a bit. I now receive more non-Nigerian scam letters than I do Nigerian scam letters. Ivory Coast, Ghana, Cameroon and Seychelles are now proportionally well represented.

For those of you looking for a laugh, you may want to check out one of my favorite scam baiter sites. This guy (a Brit by the handle of "Shiver Me Timbers") is a master craftsman and has my undying respect:

I lived in MN for 5 Winters (they count Winters, the rest of the year doesn't count) and I never heard of Rolle Bolle.

I've noticed there are a lot of evil uncles out there in Africa who are denying their recently orphaned relatives their rightful inheritence but still allowing the orphan access to the internet and emails [X(] As well as research facilities to let them look me up.
The head of the FBI has been contacting me personally be email as well. The thing is, I'm sure I'd know if someone had suspended one of my bank accounts with $5,000,000 in it [:D]

I'm disappointed that someplace in Oklahoma claims superiority in cowchip throwing. Thought that would be a Texas birthright. Oklahoma should never be the superior of Texas in anything other than 3.2% alcohol beer sales and trailerparks.

Reminds me of college days reading a book by Catlett (sp?) on Mandan culture in the 1830's, maybe '40s. He painted a portrait of a warrior named "No horns on his head". Had to have been a good story behind that name.

damn bad day.
Guys, going to whin, be warned. And long post

so maybe some of you remenber that i brillantely succeeded some exams back in february this year.
With this exam, i could pretend to a new rank in the french administration.
Just so you can understand, there are 3 ranks, from C (the worst, wich i was) to A (the best). My exam entitled me to have a B job.

A few days after, i went to the RH departement of my administration/public service, and had a talk with the Major wich is the right arm of the Colonel leading the RH
(yes, i am in a public service with real true officers, but this is not the army).
This men told me that for the time being, no job with a new rank was expected to be created in our administration. I had to wait a bit.
But not too long: i only have 3 years to find a job of level B, and if not, i loose my exam.

In the end of june, there was an offer for a job level B in my administration. So i decided to attend (made a letter, had an interview, and so on).
Now here is waht disgust me.

Let me explain you as best as i can (not easy in a foreign language).
The job was held by a girl on private basis contract. That's a bit particular (but i won't enter political debate here, just explaining the facts and the law) but it is allowed by the law. Now, at the end of june , this contract end. And the RH departement offer the job again. Strangely, the job was to be a B or A level (should have been decided before seeing the people in interview). Of course, i wanted a B job, and i send my offer.
There were 3 people (with me) having a Public contract and exam willing the job, and the girl with the private contract. One of the 3 public worker already was working at a B level, had a A exam, and wanted the job on a A level.

What the law say is :"if there is a job, the public workers MUST have it first; only of no public workers look for the job can it be given to a private contract worker".
So we should have been only 3 to compete for the job. There was NO particular knowledge to have (that could explain what happened) and the girl that had the job was at the post since only 1 year, so there is not either a question of experience.

Not only does the RH departement choose the girl on private contract (wich is illegal), but they decided to attend her to a A level.....
Of course, she is probably more sexy than me when in short skirt [8|].

I am really disgusted with my service.
