I dunno. I find it hard to complain about the 419s: given colonial history and the ongoing extraction of goodies from developing nations by the developed, is it that unfair that the Nigerians have detected and are dutifully mining our most abundant natural resources — stupidity and greed?
Similarly I’m recanting my original opposition to the Lottery. Between our lucky winner with the Mandarin tattoo and the asylum charity, the apoplexy induced by the Lottery in Mail and Tel readers is probably worth every penny. I shall go out and buy a ticket forthwith. As the bulging aneurism of fate says from above: it could be you.
