FIB - Scams 101 - Ye Olde Archives

Okay I know it's been a VERY long time, but it has been one HECK OF A KILLER month. Yes Rick we are all still alive and kicking!!!! LOL
We at our loving household have been sick with the flu,bronchitis and just plain old colds. We had a grandparent passaway, and I myself,finally after 4 years was diagnosed with a brain tumor. I am VERY happy about this and I will explain why in a minute.(Very small non-cancerous, but it has to come out.)This has all happened in a little over a month! Please do not feel like I am writing this for any kind of sympathy because that is NOT the intention.
The doctors now have an answer and a name for what is wrong with me (Other then mental instabilty but I think everyone has a touch of that LOL) called Cushings Syndrome. My doctors KNEW about this 4 years ago because some test's they ran came back high but because it is so rare in humans they never pushed the issue or even started to talk to me about it until a year ago. (only 5-25 people out of a million per year are diagnosed with it. It's usually found in household pets and horses.You should have heard my sister laugh about that one it's a good thing I have a good sense of humor about this whole thing)They actually had been treating me for something else that has similar symptoms for about 3 years even though I kept saying that there was something else wrong but they wouldn't listen. I am kind of getting off subject here but when YOU go to your doctor and you tell them there is some thing wrong make sure they LISTEN TO YOU!!!!!
After I had my heart attack at age 34.(just a year ago) My Cordiologist realized that something was just not quite right with this, me being as young as I was and never having a health problem before.I was the most active person you would have known!!! He went over all of my med records for the past 4 years and found out through test evals that this disorder started about 4 years ago. He set me up with an Enrdocrin doctor ASAP, and sure enough he found the problem. The only thing he did was a simple MRI.(And incase you are wondering yes the Cushings is a big factor in the heart problem.) If just one of the other doctors would have stopped and thought about doing the MRI, instead of telling me that I was just over weight(one doctor even told me to do Attkins AFTER my heart attack) and I just needed to exercise, which I couldn't and still can't do because I am in too much pain all the time because of the pressure in my knee's,ankle's,back and hip joint's from the weight I have gained.(145lbs-272lbs in about 9 months all im my trunk area,I have to wear maternity clothes I look about 19 months pregnant.All because of the Cushings)
Anyway enough of that. This is where you come in MaaMaw (or anyone with advise) I was thinking about writing an ebook about the whole experience
and I know you have written a couple of ebooks but I am not sure how to start it. I would like to start at the begining and end it with the hopeful,full recovery process and try to throw in some good advise along the way,but what if someone else has the same idea? Are there copywrites on ebooks? But then again my story would be different from theirs. Like I said I am just not sure how to start. Could one of you all give me a hand? I would love you forever!!!!
Thanks

Oh an one more thing has anyone heard of Tim Knox and his Ultimate Ebay Dropship Power Pack? I want to try and start multi-streams of internet income and I thought dropshipping would be a good one too. I see his add all the time so I was just wondering.I have to say that I have checked scam.com,ripoffreport.com and the bbb and found nothing. So you see I do, do my home work I'm not just a fly by night FIBer

PLEASE READ THIS LEGAL NOTICE CAREFULLY BEFORE YOU FILE A LAWSUIT OR EVEN WASTE TIME THINKING ABOUT IT. It has been done before, but never successfully. In fact, the last dodobird who tried it ended up being ordered to pay more than $77,000 in attorney fees ($65,000+ to my attorneys and $12,000+ to my co-defendant's legal advisor).
If your attorney is worth his salt, he's going to tell you that the expense of filing a lawsuit you can't win is a whole lot worse than any "damages" resulting from messages posted on this insignificant little chunk of cyberspace. NEWS FLASH: I didn't just climb down off that ol' turnip truck yesterday. I'm well aware that expressing a negative opinion, relating one's personal experience, and restating provable facts are all legal in this country and do not constitute libel, slander, or defamation -- so you don't want to play games with me, and you sure don't want to start something you aren't prepared to finish. I don't take threats lightly, and I don't accept bribes (or did you call it a "mutually-beneficial arrangement"?). I'll turn you in faster than you can yell, "ARREST ME, I'M SCUM!!" Do yourself a favor and turn your legal team loose in greener pastures. Although we may, from time to time, monitor or review discussions, postings and the like on the Friends In Business (Scams 101) Message Board, we are under no obligation to do so. We are not responsible or liable for any claim arising from the content of any such discussions or postings or for any error, defamation, libel, slander, omission, falsehood, obscenity, pornography, profanity, danger, or inaccuracy contained in any information contained within such locations on the Site. You are prohibited from posting or transmitting any unlawful, threatening, libelous, defamatory, obscene, scandalous, inflammatory, pornographic, or profane materials or any material that could constitute or encourage conduct that would be considered a criminal offense, give rise to civil liability, or otherwise violate any law. You are likewise prohibited from posting any false claims against any company or individual. We will fully cooperate with any law enforcement authorities or court order requesting or directing us to disclose the identity of anyone posting any such information or materials. By posting messages and/or content on the Friends In Business (Scams 101) Message Board, you give permission for Lesley Fountain/Friends In Business/Shoestring Success Publications to display, distribute and use the posting and content for publication, advertising, promotion, excerption or example.

If you cannot accept or agree with the terms of service for this website and discussion board, you are advised not to post on this board. In closing, I would like to remind you once again that it is still legal, in this great country of ours, to express a PERSONAL OPINION, as long as it is presented as opinion and not as fact. And finally, all you scammers out there will do well to remember that TRUTH IS AN ABSOLUTE DEFENSE against charges of libel, defamation, and slander... so if you're operating just a hop, skip, and jump ahead of the law, you might want to think twice before doing anything stupid... (AND SHAME ON YOU!!). |
