@ Joods
Swingshot.
I'm reading some of this stuff in tears. You;ve been holding out on the funny, joods......wtf is that all about?
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

I've recently read this book
The Confidence Game: The Psychology of the Con and Why We Fall for It Every Time
It's a good book although it annoys me how it talks about people as if they all think the same way without exception. Basically it describes how cons work from a psychology view point. It's really useful to understand how you can be susceptible to the psychological tricks that con artists play and why they work.
It made the point that the Nigerian scams are so obviously fake because only the most gullible respond, otherwise they would have far too many potential marks who each require too much effort.
What I loved about the book though was the last chapter. It didn't come out straight and say that religion was a con, but it described all the similarities and why religion was such fertile ground for con artists.

You should see some of the things the scammers have to do to prove they are "legit". Been a while since I've been on that forum, but there is definitely days and days worth of excellent reading material if you're looking for a laugh.
