heart of darkness, part 20

Okay, due to popular demand (e.g., "my god. we are all going to die."), I have decided to move toward pulling the plug on this. I think we at JFW are being cowardly and may have missed out on an opportunity for considerable riches. Oh, well, win some, lose some.

From Jeremy:

"Mr. Mongosutu":

I have just received a gloating e-mail from Dahlia indicating that 

you have decided to enlist her services for the purposes of your 

transaction rather than Constance's and mine.  I have no idea 

how you got her e-mail, but I deeply resent the intrusion and 

the breach of trust.  Do you know that Dahlia is only 17 years 

old?  Do you have any idea the kinds of troubles that we have 

had with her already?

Furthermore, I have made some inquiries the last couple of days

and discovered that e-mails like the kind you originally sent me 

are much more widespread than I had ever imagined.  I realize 

now that I have been naive.  Please do not contact me or any 

members of my family again, or I shall be forced to alert the 

appropriate authorities.

Constance:  I apologize for getting you involved in this.  

I will talk to you more about this later.  Have nothing more to 

do with this man.

my brother has FREAKED OUT.  he just e-mailed and told me 

he was going to have mom cancel my credit card if I e-mail you 

anymore. i still think that they were trying to take advantage of 

you. my family is scum. i hope you are able to get your money fine.  

hugs and prayers, dahlia.
