I'm about to make my second pot!

This somehow got through my spam filter:

Hello

Ref: Information about Your late Relation/Family member- Final Notice

This is my second but final attempt to reach you in view of this subject matter.When someone dies without leaving a will and there's no known relative to inherit his estate, the government receives the money. Unless, a previously unknown distant relative or a descendant from the same ancestor is found within a limited time frame at the discretion of the treasury department to claim the inheritance as laid out in section 46 of the Administration of Estates Act of 1992.

I am Patrick Claude,the Head of Audit department of SNS Bank Netherlands.There is an account belonging to your Late Family Member I will like to discuss with you. Once I receive your respond I shall provide you with all the privileged information/legal documents relating to the deceased and also will give you guidelines on how to realize this goal without the breach of the law.

I respectfully request that you treat the content of this letter as privileged and respect the integrity of the information as a result of this correspondence. Contact me immediately for more information and to begin the legal process of redeeming your lawful entitlement before the bank is compelled by law to hand over the money to the government as unclaimed estate.

Kind Regards,

Patrick

I guess there are people still responding to these things, if people keep sending them out, but really, people are still that gullible?

My sister reuses the leaves of her fancy tea that I forget the name of. I'm pretty sure she just leaves them in the strainer and does the "second pour" the same day.

I am apt to forget I made tea while I am still drinking the first cup and leave the pot sitting for a long time, so I don't try to keep up with damp leaves.

people are still that gullible?

Yes.

I'm pretty sure she just leaves them in the strainer and does the "second pour" the same day.

Yeah, that's pretty much what I do. But I'm definitely not in it for the caffeine.

At the exorbitant prices Teavana extorted out of me, a second pour is the least I should get out of these things. They do also recommend it.

I don't reuse my leaves, even for the $10/can Ministry of Tea I use. It's never as good.

In the evenings, I drink TJ's decaf Irish breakfast, but it's not as good as the leaded stuff: takes longer to steep and just disappoints.

The Candy Cane Weapons of The North Pole

In matters of Christmas security, Santa’s Defense Forces rely on a homegrown candy cane-based weapon system. The heart of the system is the Candy Cane Carbine (C3), a modular candy small arm that can be adapted for a variety of roles, from close-ranged gifting to long range bah-humbug suppression. And for gravely naughty or armor-plated threats to Christmas and Santa, there is the candy cane of last resort—the Mark 12 Tenenbaum Launcher—which fires a ballistic christmas tree.

I just love the uniforms of Santa’s Little Secret Service/Santa’s Defense Forces....

Teavana

Whoah. Those prices are ridic. Upton Tea all the way for me.

I usually drink Twinings. Or, um, Tetley.

In Moldova we used the tea three times, and would reuse from the previous day. Sometimes I reuse here, sometimes I don't.
