Hey Everybody!
With all the sad news we've been inundated with here on Kos, in the world and, speaking for myself, in my personal life, this past month, I have to say that the email I received today really lifted my spirits.
You see, out of all the people in the world, I have been contacted and offered a chance to make a prodigious amount of money, simply by helping out a poor widow invest the illegal gains of her late husband.
I dunno how she found me, perhaps she is even a dKos reader and that's how she found out that I would be perfect for the job. Isn't that exciting?
Whatever. All I can say is boy, am I happy.
I won't have time to post much in future because I'll be too busy searching for good investments in my country. Not being an investment advisor, I'll certainly have my job cut out for me!
Wish me luck.

PS You can read the email below the flip. I'm sure you'll be just as excited for me as I am for myself!
PPS Be sure to read who it is from. I know for a fact she IS a widow! This has got to be on the level. Woo Hoo!
Dear friend,
This mail may not be surprising to you if you have been following
current events in the international media with reference to the Middle East
and Palestine in particular.
I am Mrs. SUHA ARAFAT, the wife of YASSER ARAFAT, the Palestinian
leader who died recently in Paris. Since his death and even prior to the
announcement,he wrote a will on how this ($35m USD) and all his properties
could be shared among his wives for he married two wives whereby I am the
second wife. In the will, he allocated sixty percent (60%) of this $35,000,000:00
to his first wife and forty percent (40%) to me the second wife and my children.
Now I wish to invest with part of this money in your country hence my making
this contact to you.The 40% allocated to me is fourteen million dollar $14,000,000:00
)the amount I will to invest is ten million US Dollars ($10, 000, 000:00
USD).I will use $2,000, 000:00 MUSD for myself and my children personal
needs and $2,000,000:00
for all the expenses we will incure during theprocess of theinvestment.
As a widow that is so traumatized, I have lost confidence with
everybody in the country at the moment.You must have heard over the media
reports on the discovery of some fund in my husband secret bank account
in Europe and companies the allegations of some huge sums of money deposited
by my husband in my name of which I have refuses to disclose or give up
to the corrupt Palestine Government.
In fact the total sum allegedly discovered by the Government so far is in
the tune of about $6.5 Billion Dollars. And they are not relenting on their
effort to make me poor for life. As the Moslem community has no regards
for women,that is my desire for a foreign assistance.
