2 -- I am off my rocker and I need $100,000,000 (Kensington Village)

Hello, My name is Herbert.

Just to make sure I get off on the right foot with you, I am clinically insane. My shrink says that If I don't stop pulling out my hair when I sleep, that I'll be bald in 3-6 months. I'm currently housing 4 different personalities in my head (Paul, Herbert, Shelly and Jackson). Paul is a black man who is into the rock group Foreigner, Herbert is a banker, Shelly is a fitness freak and Jackson is a jewish rapper from Queens. I'm also a terrible speller.

Anyway, I'm looking for someone to give me $100,000,000. I will be using the money for personal needs. I'm thinking of doing a movie, or maybe I will just move to Guam. Either way, it's not going to be cheap. I will put together the appropriate paperwork to present the transaction as a "loan".

However, it's imperative that the lender be relaxed about their investment in me as a person. It is possible that I will not be able to pay the loan back entirely. So, in lieu of any balance of the loan not paid back, I will be willing to forward my collection of highly unique and much valued antique rubber stamps. Valued on the Antique Road Show to be worth approximately $1,250.00. While that is a bit off the collateral watermark, it is widely believed that the rubber stamps will be worth over $10,000 by 2017. So, going by that, you are assured return on your investment in a couple hundred years. Your great, great grandchildren will be thankful.

To tell you a little about myself, I was orphaned at the age of 2 by my mother who, I've been told, was an underwater welder for Exxon. My father is an ex-patriot and lives in Spain and collects royalties on the hit he wrote for the little known band "Jesus Christ Air Rockets". The hit was titled, "I f#!k for Money". Perhaps, you've heard it. The adoption agency gave up all of this information after I approached my counselor with a baseball bat threatening to destroy all of her glass managerie (<-sp?).

Either way, I'm going to the nuthouse unless I do something great like make a movie (then I'll be accentric <-sp? as opposed to "insane") or I will move to indonesia and live among the meek.

Please reply to this email by email. There we can discuss further the implementation of the loan and the exchange of pleasantries.

I really enjoy being in shape.

Shelly

Quiet You!!!

Once again Kerry misses a vote.

The question I continously ask myself is this: Is Kerry in the Senate to be elected President of the United States or is he there to represent his constituents? Missing an important vote such as this is uncalled for. I stated this early on in my blog and I will state it again: the job of a senator is to represent his constituents, not run for president. I understand that this election is important but what of the people who will miss out on unemployment benefits? Will this really make them want to elect John Kerry rather than George W. Bush?

The House that Idles:

"House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) noted that senators held three committee hearings on the prison abuses before House leaders summoned Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld to the Armed Services Committee last Friday -- a day the Senate was meeting but the House was not. DeLay dismissed the idea of a full-fledged congressional investigation, which he likened to 'saying we need an investigation every time there's police brutality on the street.'"

Perhaps Not So Exceptional After All

Does a United States soldier have more morals than a North Korean soldier? Iraqi soldier? Isreali soldier? If so, why? What makes a United State soldier morally infallible compared to others?
