Site Meter, Red Dwarf and Elvis



1. This is one of my favourite episodes from Red Dwarf. The clips are short.

2. I received a good review for my statistics chapter and I am now working on revisions. Things are looking promising for the PhD!

3. I realize that a few new readers check out this blog and likely do not scroll all the way down the page, or look in the archives. Unlike most blogs, I have all my postings available on one page. I like this and it is part of my philosophy that all my articles are open for revision. Here are some of the older postings that I know through Site Meter receive a fair amount of views through web searches. Please check them out if they are new to you and interest.

The above is very funny as an angry preacher with bad language asks for $250,000.

The above is my most popular posting. I think the title has a lot to do with it.

  1. Elvis Impersonator did a great job, and funny too! But there will never be another Elvis! His music and influence has made an incredible mark in contemporary music history and perhaps never to be matched!

  2. Hey, Bobby

    I have heard that you are a little bit of Elvis yourself. What music have you done?

    Cheers, baby

  3. Elvis poured himself into his music that made it his own. His voice and persona is inspirational and has influenced many singers including myself.

    MRS..VIVBIAN ABU
    RUE 26 HB5
    KUMASSI RAMBLEAU
    ABIDJAN,IVORY COASTWEST AFRICA.

    Dearest in heart,

    I really dont mean to bother you.But it is urgent and very important at this point that I contact you.It is my wish to introduce myself to you
    I am princess vivian abu.The former wife to late prince Anthony Abu .I am 26 years old and I have a daughter who is 5 years old.
    My late husband was the prince of Buake,a town in Ivory Coast where I lived with him until his death in February 13th 2006.My late husband was a carefree,open-minded and considerate person which I believed contributed largely to his death.He never withheld these qualities from his subjects.The people he ruled.This is why it was easy for him to be poisoned.His death was suspected to have been carried out by one of his subjects..

    My husband called me in his palace one faithful Friday afternoon.He told me of the money
    ( 8. 5 million us dollars) he deposited in one of the prime Bank here in Abidjan Cote D'Ivoire.

    The capital city of Ivory Coast West Africa.He told me this exactly 3 months before his death.As if he knew he was going to die..

    He also explained to me that it was because of this wealth that he was poisoned

    That I should seek for a good foreign partner in a country of my choice where I will transfer this money to and use it for investment purposes. that the person will help me to transfer the money into his or her person's account and the person will help me to invest the money in his or her country

    Now after my husband's death.His kinsmen and his immediate familly are after my life.They want to kill me and inherit my husband wealth.Since I dont have a male child who will succeed my husband and ascend to the throne.

    No one knows about this deposit except the personal advicer to the prince.And I suspect he has something to do with his death.He is the one that told the kinsmen that i knew about the money in deposit and also i have the documents.That is why they are looking for me to get this documents.

    I succeeded in sneaking out of the palace at night.I abandoned every thing I labouerd with my late husband in the palace but I only made away with all the documents that covered the deposite.

    All the relevant documents of the (8.5 Million dollars) that was deposited in one of the prime Bank here are intact with me now.

    i am confused and i dont know what to do,I am hiding in a local guest house here in Abidjan.i want you to help me out of this then tranfer the fund into your account in overseas as a beneficiary of the fund, and also use it for an investment purpose. and i will come over to your country to begin a new life,away from this wicked people that killed my husband,immediately you have received the money under your custody.I want you also to help me and invest this money in a good business over there,get back to me as soon as you read this.

    I will give you 15% of the money for your help.

    can i strongly trust you

    Can I rely on you to help me?

    I am waiting to hear from you

    Yours sincerely,
    mrs vivian abu
