Title: Very Important
Post by: Craig on July 12, 2008, 01:02:20 PM
TICK WARNING!

I hate it when people forward bogus warnings, and I have even done it
myself a couple times unintentionally...but this one is real, and it's
important. So please send this warning to everyone on your e- mail
list.

If someone comes to your front door saying they are checking for ticks
due to the warm weather and asks you to take your clothes off and dance
around with your arms up, DO NOT DO IT!! THIS IS A SCAM!! They only
want to see you naked.

I wish I'd gotten this yesterday....... I feel so stupid.

Hi, this is Paula, Dewey's wife

Ya know, this is so ironic 'cause just today I was out back mowing grass for most of the day when Dewey left for the store.  I just came in to clean up, stepped into a bath robe when the door bell rang.   Two young men, both apologizing for interrupting with what I was doing explained that this thing was going around from ticks called Lyme Disease.  So after a 5 minute discussion I agreed to the inspection for a $15 fee.  They didn't find any, but the inspection was so thorough I tipped them 5 bucks.  Just as they were leaving, Dewey returned and I told him I just spent $20 for a personal tick inspection.  Now then his language has gone from holy to oh, boy!!  Dewey, don't talk like that.  Now he's sittin' across the room sayin' I must have been a blonde before!!  I never had the heart to tell him I told them I'd be mowin' again next week on Saturday.

love y'ans

I get no respect I tell ya.  I saw people with signs saying tick inspection for $5.  I gave em $5 and proceded to undress.  They gave me $50 to put my clothes back on.

So Paula,

Were these two YOUNG men wearing white shirts, black ties and carrying back packs with Bibles in them?

Just wondering why you mentioned that you were mowing again next week on Saturday.

Perhaps you wanted to prepare a couple of Bible questions for them to answer when they return.

Bob

p.s. did you tell Dewey about this?  He may be interested
