I thought I was th only one getting all these silly Nigerian scam spams.  I 
figured maybe they saw my name and decided to test on me (though they might 
more cleverly have figured that a fellow Nigerian would be wise to the game).

However, with the (sloppily) bogus headers I've always found on those things, 
I'm surprised your ISP couldn't sniff them out.

Not that it matters.  The Eastern Nigerian proverb gets it right.

"Once hunters learn to shoot without missing, birds will learn to fly without 
resting".
