California Man Sues Penis-Enlargment Firms

Ronin writes "The DenverPost reports that 'A California man on Thursday sued a slew of international companies, including a Greeley distributor, alleging the penis-enlargement products they market and distribute do not work.' One of the highlights of the article is when the man says "I was wondering for a long time why no one has gotten around to suing these penis-enlargement guys, because it seems like a pretty blatant ... fraud." Probably cause people are too embarrased to say they've tried it."

      Good Day,

      You may be suprised to receive this email since you do not know me. I am the son of the late president of Democratic Republic Of Zaire, President Mobutu Sese Seko, and I have an enormous penis. I presume you are aware there is a financial dispute between my family ( THE MOBUTU ) and the present penis-enlargement spammers. This is based on what they believe as bad and corrupt information on my late father's part. May his soul (and penis) rest in perfect peace. You might have heard how a lot of my father's considerable "bulk" has been frozen in Switzerland and North America.

      Following the above named reasons, I am soliciting for your humble and confidential assistance to take custody of THIRTY MILLION Viagra pills, and open your gateway for me in the areas of business so I can spam half of humanity.

    Besides "liberal" tax and spend attitudes, most Califorians don't have the slightest idea of how to drive in ice and snow. This seems to be as much a part of Coloradans taking a dislike to Californians as anything. Thus, saying we are "from" the midwest seems to disarm some of the hostility we might otherwise encounter.
