Good one to share...

Excerpt from the Straight Times, 23 July 2005>>

"The Moneytree Authority (MA) launched a brand new
Dollar bill, which has been named the "Peanut Series". Each
peanut series bill is legal tender equivalent to 600,000 Singapore
Dollars, henceforth known as 1 Peanut.
The CEOs across the Republic have been quick to applaud the launch of
the 1 Peanut bill. In an interview with a Mr. Durai, a CEO of a
philanthropic organisation, who wished to remain anonymous, he said,
"Now I don't have to carry suitcases of money home. Prior to the
issuing of the Peanut, I had to carry a whole suitcase of small change
home every month. This is because the people who paid me tend to do so
in small amounts, like $5 dollars each time, and it can be very
irritating. Now I am just paid 1 Peanut with a single bill, slip it
quickly into my wallet and off I go.
It's very convenient!"
The reaction by the general public was however cool. Most said that it
is unlikely that they will ever use a 1 Peanut bill. With a average
national income of S$3000 (0.005 Peanut), the average Singaporean will
need about 2 lifetimes to save a Peanut. Said a Mr. Tan, who is a
plumber, "The other day, I installed a golden tap in some CEO's
bathroom and he paid me using
1 Peanut for the $1000 golden tap. I tell him where got enough change?
Watch out for the newest security features on the 1 Peanut note,
including a new watermark which replaces the traditional lion head.
The new watermark can only be seen under an intense bright light and
close scrutiny because of its extreme lack of transparency.
According to MAS spokesman, the added security features are extremely
important given that 1 Peanut can probably buy three 4-room HDB flats,
or 10 Nissan Sunnies, the average Singaporean will be very tempted to
lay their hands on a Peanut."

This is hilarious! Be sure to read the warning at the bottom.
I didn't change a word! I'm not messing with the Sex Fairy!

1. Sex is a beauty treatment. Scientific tests find
that when women make love they produce amounts of the hormone estrogen,
which makes hair shine and skin smooth.
=============

2. Gentle, relaxed lovemaking reduces your chances of
suffering dermatitis, skin rashes and blemishes. The sweat produced
cleanses the pores and makes your skin glow.

=============

3. Lovemaking can burn up those calories you piled on
during that romantic dinner.

=============

4. Sex is one of the safest sports you can take up.
It stretches and tones up just about every muscle in the body. It's more
enjoyable than swimming 20 laps, and you don't need special sneakers!

=============

5. Sex is an instant cure for mild depression.
It releases endorphins into the bloodstream, producing a sense of euphoria
and leaving you with a feeling of well-being.

=============

6. The more sex you have, the more you will be offered.
The sexually active body gives off greater quantities of chemicals
called pheromones. These subtle sex perfumes drive the opposite sex
crazy!
=============

7. Sex is the safest tranquilizer in the world.
IT IS 10 TIMES MORE EFFECTIVE THAN VALIUM.

=============

8. Kissing each day will keep the dentist away.
Kissing encourages saliva to wash food from the teeth and lowers the
level of the acid that causes decay, preventing plaque build-up.

=============

9. Sex actually relieves headaches. A lovemaking
session can release the tension that restricts blood vessels in the
brain.
=============

10. A lot of lovemaking can unblock a stuffy nose.
Sex is a natural antihistamine. It can help combat asthma and hay fever.

and your genitals will rot and fall off. This is no joke! Send copies

fate of your genitals has no price.

Since the copy must tour the world, you must send it.
This is true, even if you are not superstitious.
