Ipod offer...

Hi, For the potential of attracting young professional customers it seems
advertisers are willing to give us a decent incentive for a change. This
offer was featured on Newsnight and it is absolutely genuine. I have set up
a simple one page site to explain and give links to both the Newsnight
report and the parent company behind it all. Just paste
http://homepage.ntlworld.com/tomedwardevans/ipod into your browser.
Sorry to use this message board for promotion but it's such a good offer it
can't last forever.
Happy iPod-ing

I mean yes, obviously with pyramid schemes someone is going to come up
trumps, but many people will not

Having read your website and the newsnight report it looks to me like a
variation on the Pyramid Scam.......

legal ? ......probably

worth doing?.........probably not

It's off-topic anyway in this newsgroup.

This is the first and ONLY time i've ever posted ads for something like this
actually, and I get equally as pissed off as other people. Being 15 its
difficult actually a ffording an ipod and when you get the chance to get one
for doing little work (or at least encouraging people to do the same) most
people my age would do it. I hope you're familiar with the eastern concept
of Karma by the way Clarke, you're obviously not a very tolerant person.

we'll let you off this time but you must remember to enter the group

She is terrible for not being home. I used to find that wearing the

coming back, ie leaving LV on a jetpack or such. Basically I find
she's in til you get the card, then she stops being in

Again, pretty good for your age group, and even for more 'mature'
groups. Have you visited http://www.shuttercity.com ?
It's a pretty cool place and you can get some good feedback on your
pics, plus it's free except constant nagging for donations :O)
