| lenona321@yahoo.com: Jun 07 02:50PM -0700 As I mentioned below, I smell at least an exaggeration. This is in part because while the new male contraceptive Vasalgel has passed animal tests and is due to start being tested on men in America in 2018, I STILL haven't heard any rumors that rock stars or athletes are pouring money into it. So why would less promiscuous men be that interested? https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/alt.support.childfree/q1Kq2wsEnkk Lenona. |
| lenona321@yahoo.com: Jun 07 09:41AM -0700 I can't seem to copy and paste any of this, so here it is. http://www.msn.com/en-us/lifestyle/smart-living/12-tricks-con-artists-use-to-win-your-trust/ss-AAjnU59?li=BBnb7Kz&ocid=mailsignout Number 7 is pretty chilling - I might not have thought of it! After all, it's not too surprising when a product endorsed by a celeb doesn't do as well as the creator THOUGHT it would - but this is different. I don't think I heard of the Eiffel Tower scam, either. (That was in 1925.) Btw, the article doesn't mention pigeon drop scams, but I read about that in a YA novel from 2002 - "See You Down the Road." I read about it again in "Tall Tales, Legends and Hoaxes" by Nat Segaloff, which I'm pretty sure is another title for an earlier book of his from 2001, since both books include the "laying the note" con from the 1973 Ryan O'Neal movie "Paper Moon."
