I got a first class letter today, it's from a law firm in Toronto. I have the same last name as a fellow that died on the job.
$7,520,000 US even.. I may have it all to myself, my wife says if I respond, she's leaving.
I'll need to shop for a new boat, and motor, what do you all recommended?

There are Nigerian Princes in Toronto?

First class mail with a stamp and everything? Wowsers.
What do you mean a boat? Surely you meant boats.

There appears to be a law firm in Toronto with that name.
I'll need a new cabin to, an entire island perhaps?

Sure you fellows have your fun, scuff if you like. I'll hire 5's as a chauffer, I'll tell him to honk the horn when we pass you in my stretch limo, pulling my yacht behind. If I'm awake, I may, roil the black side window down part way, and give a little wave.
Wow! I never thought this would happen to me.

I see my relative did live in Niagara, nothing about him being a prince.

Well, I hope it's at least partly true and not a case of misidentity.

Apparently boomers are still falling for that 20 year old scam, since the letters are still going out.

I might hire a diver to put fish on my hook when fishing is slow otherwise. He''ll have to stay submerged all day, that way I'll be surprised when I get a strike.

I've had a trophy wife since December 67, My boat is good enough, I might invest in Enron, or the Drake Estate.

It's a teaser, it looks real enough, however, "if it sounds too good to be true".
