A letter from "Mr. Joseph Smith."

Got this in my email today! I’m so excited. JES, why didn’t you tell us you had a new job in the gaming industry! It sounds like fun.

BTW, if you could just mail my check for 300,000 euros directly to me, poor Miss. Lillian won’t have to bother with all that silly email stuff. Easier all round. Thanks so much!
:wink:

I love that!!

There ya go! Having a Palm Tree moment? :laughing:

The dwarf palmettos native to Oklahoma are popular with gardeners, as they are the most cold-tolerant of the species.
