Write a rule that recognizes its a bill and forwards it to a program.


Write the program to scan the bill and replace all dollar amounts with
half their values and then mail a copy to each person.


Be sure you round up so you don't get a late fee for being one penny
short. *Don't worry about going over, because they'll take the extra
penny off the next bill.


Why not just send a copy of your electric bill to everyone on the
internet. *Ask every person to pay one cent. *Be sure to tell them that
you are very poor, you're wife is pregnant, and has cancer, and your
grandma needs surgery on her vagina, and you need to have penis surgery
to make it longer, because it dont work. *Almost everyone can afford a
penny, and will bite. *So your bill will be paid off in no time.

While you're at it, turn it into a pyramid scam. *The person who pays
the most pennys gets to the top of the pyramid, and the ones below have
to pay more pennys, and soon you will be wealthy and everyone below you
will make big money fast. *Learn how to use the internet to make you
rich. *Spammers have been doing it for years, now it's your turn. *LOL



Heard another example of the intelligence of America's
media. Geraldo Rivera was on the radio complaining about
how awful the electric company is in NY because they sent
out bills to people whose homes were destroyed by the
hurricane. Unless the electric company billing computer is
really God, how would it know who's home was destroyed
and whose wasn't? And even if the home was destroyed,
you'd still owe any outstanding balance, for usage up until
it was, etc.
