Plain fun and it hardly costs anything!
----------------------------------

Tired of all those people who ask you money, tell you to call a 
certain phone number. Everybody can make you 'rich', but all they do 
is make you poor. This will not make you rich, but it is a lot of fun! 
How does this work?

(1) Go to a department store and you buy a pair of socks. 
(2) Through normal mail you send number 1 on the list the pair of 
socks.
(3) Now you erase the first name on the list and you put your own name 
on the bottom.
(4) Send this new edited message to all your e-mail penpalls and 
aquantances. 

Now say you send your message to 25 people, 5 will participate. Each 
of those five sends 25 e-mails of which 5 participate.  About now you 
are on the second level. The next generation will also send 25 e-mail 
each and 5 will respond. Now you are already on the first level! 

And now comes the fun! If things go right you will receive in your 
mailbox: 
5x5x5=125 PAIRS OF SOCKS (or even more if this message is sent to more 
people)
No longer you have to worry about a pair of socks matching with your 
new sweater!

What do you have to loose? Just enter and have fun! Imagine you will 
maybe receive a genuine pair of Brasilian Football socks, handcrafted 
Chinese leisure socks. everything is possible!

Good luck!
