I bought a couch yesterday. I was assured that the movers would be able to get it through the door, but what if they start taking a hammer to my front door to get it in? What then?

That transaction is/was not "risk free."

If Mr Isioma can promise a risk-free transaction, then should we really be making fun of him on this BBS? Should we?

Let's ask Dead Silent Slumber, currently playing here at work at AMD.

"Heading for death! Meet the void beyond the gates. Forever burn in the purgatory. Bloodcurdling whisperings from your lungs, throat and lips -- take my hand and I'll spare your soul!"

I think that sort of says it all! Trust in God -- and Nigeria -- will get us through this day. Thanks, DSS!

The last time I got promised a soul-sparing, I woke up to a wereboar gnawing on my throat, demoncock in places no good demoncock should have even thought to go without internet access and an AOL account, 5 babyskulls set at suspiciously pentagram-like angles around my body and a woefully bloodstained riding cloak, which, to this day, the drycleaners will not work on without a $50 deposit.

You just can't trust Necromancers.
