Exciting news! Had to share!

[JeffR]

An email tonight:

"You have just been awarded, the sum of £1,500,000,000.00 GBP in the
National Liverwood Lottery 2009 Anniversary Bonanza. For Claims email your
details to: (totally believable non-phishing email address here) Phone number :[phone] for
more details."

I'm just so darn excited. After I get my check, everyone on DU will get a cut. I don't know what I did to deserve this magical dispensation, but I'm quite confident I do indeed deserve it. Please don't PM me about your pending stipend. There's gonna a lot of admin hours involved in this, and I want the staff to be able to concentrate fully.

Also please don't let this sink, as it is intended purely as a public service and not at all because I'm still up at this hour and didn't post this in GD because I knew it would get moved here right away. We now return you to your regularly scheduled Lounge...

1. £1.5B?

Do you have any idea how many € that'll buy? Like 1.7B€!

[JeffR]

2. OMG!

It's a good thing I've decided to divvy this up. I don't think my neighborhood bank branch would have room in their vault for all those sweet €s. Should have mentioned above that I will be retaining a sizable chuck of the money to buy a former pig farm in Crawford, Texas. It's always been my dream, and now at last it's within reach.

3. Now, I'm not saying I'm a golddigger but....

4. With all those €s at hand, a few golddiggers won't be a big deal

Welcome aboard the Crazy Train!

6. My dear JeffR!

I just have to say...

Fucking DUzy, man!

:rofl:

[JeffR]

7. I have contractual restrictions about self-DUzying.

But bless you for thinking of me, dear Peggy.

9. OMG, you have no idea how badly I need my cut right now.

Thanks you!!! Jeff, I don't care what anyone else says about you, you are a prince among men! :loveya:



P.S. I'll pm you my home address so you can send the check. Better yet, I'll pm you my bank account number so you can just transfer it straight in. When might I expect to see my account amount swell?

[JeffR]

10. Oh any day now.

And thanks for your kind reminder of how many of my fellow DUers loathe me. It helps keep me humble.
