Well, at least I have that signed contract from you printed off now, Jeff. I've got to thank my fortunes that you're going to pay me USD $1,000,000 per annum for AE advice. Again, I say thanks!

Funny you mention that.

I used to work for a Tyre company based in Akron.

From time to time we would get the Nigerian letter sent to us, big laugh.

One day we got a letter supposedly from the Nigerian Army.

Another laugh.

Turns out it was legit and they were trying to source run flat tyres for their APC or Armoured Cars.

I actually feel very sorry for any legitimate businessman or woman that is from Nigeria.

I still get stuff from you occasionally. I might take you up on the male member cream enhancer one of these days.

The funniest thing I saw was a pair of Malaysian LAMEs (Licenced Aircraft Maintenance Engineers) posting on an aircraft modeling forum looking for technical data on the GAF Nomad aircraft.

I know data for this aircraft is hard to come by but the manufacturer might be a better place to start!!!

Remind me not to go flying in that part of the world......
