Wow. Ground control to Major Tunde has a ring to it.

Sounds legit

You would think that since pretty much everyone knows about the Nigerian scam, they would consider changing the heart of the scam, rather than just the circumstances. On the other hand, if it's still working . . . shame on us.

I only had 500 grand to give him:(

Now I'm broke- I just fished a dirty stale old pizza crust out of a garbage can to eat, but at least that brave Nigerian astronaut is closer to being able to come home.

Just doin' my part. *salutes*

Can't he just get home like how Sandra Bullock got home from space?

The poor bastard. I'll help out.

I gave them my bank account number, but the joke's on them. I'm keeping the whole $15 million! Suckers!

This started in 2004.
Apparently no one gives a crap about this poor astronot as somebody could have invested 100k in the stock market and gotten his sorry ass back by now with interest.

Actually, I feel bad about this poor guy stuck up there. I'll pick him up on my way back from Mars next week.
