Don’t be jealous, but we woke up to this email:

Dearest Balan Rathakrishnan,

When we woke up this morning on our neighbor’s lawn [don’t ask] we never would have imagined something this amazing would happen to us. We have no idea what an “e-mail ID” is, but we have no reason to believe that this is nothing but legit. Not that we have to justify our deservingness [is that a word where you are from?] of these riches, but we really like British Tobacco. We’re also big fans of Simon Cowell.

Thanks so much for brightening our day.

PS: How much money is 1,000,000.00 GBP and is there anyway we can convert that into a Subway gift card?

For anyone else who also got one of these emails this morning – we’d love to combine our money and buy something fun.  Like Michigan or Harry Reid’s Senate seat.
