Well, apparently my friend John has a little too much time on his hands these days, cause yesterday he sent this to me.

What can I say? It works…

Speaking of John: he’s a bona-fide video and photoshop ninja, and he’s currently feeling the pain of the recession, so if you’ve ever thought about having a video done for just about any occasion, you should cruise over to his website and see what’s up. He’ll take great care of you!

My mom hired him to make this video a couple of years back (in 2 parts -- after the jump)

Can you believe it? Now I know it’s dangerous to share my personal information with strangers, but it’s ok in this case. I know that because this is from ‘Rev‘ ‘Dr’ Giller Jackson.

I can trust a man who’s a reverend and a doctor, right?

And you want to hear the kicker? I just looked in my spam box, and I have won 5 other lotteries, plus I apparently owe the Nigerian Revenue Service a crap load of money in taxes.

…I better get right on that.

There’s a great story on the NPR program ‘Fresh Air‘ that I listened to last night on the way home. It’s about these kinds of scams and stuff. Check it out.

There’s a pretty funny add campaign called “Elf Yourself”.

This happens to coincide with a week when I have a photo of myself wearing a mullet wig from a party we went to.
