Exciting news! Had to share!

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 :+44-704-570-1978 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€!

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.

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

Welcome aboard the Crazy Train!

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?

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.
