A Heart-Warming 9/11 Story

With all the recollections of 9/11 floating around this weekend, this is one
story I had never seen before. It is the incredible story of a boy from
Kenya who wanted to be a doctor, and who ended up in New York on September
11, 2001.

Need Speakers?

I'm sure that this has happened to many, but for some it's just a myth or urban legend. A story that they heard from a friend of a friend. But it's true, both DV Dude and myself have been approached as potential "marks" for the Speaker deal of a life time.

It will happen when you least expect it, in the parking lot of a Canadian Tire, or a Gas Station or anywhere that unsuspecting people can be approached without cause for concern.

2-3 Men in a commercial van or small box truck will pull up beside you...

"Pssst... Hey buddy, come here, I got something to tell you.... Due to a warehouse packing mix up, I've got an extra set of $XXXX value speakers, I need to get rid of them before I go back to the warehouse...."

Then the con, they will offer you the speakers for pennies on the dollar, a $2000 set for $150 bucks....
