Several years ago after I arrived in Taiwan, I felt very lonely, so I put
a message on the Internet to look for friends. It said, "Handsome
Canadian businessman looking for attractive companions for dinner. movies
-- maybe marriage." That's all! I left my photograph and my email
address and I waited. Contest Master, Judges, Ladies & Gentlemen The 1st
day I received 100 email. WOW! I was so surprised, and happy. The 2nd day
I received 500 messages! I thought, Oh My God! What have I done? The 3rd
day, and every day thereafter, I received thousands of messages from all
around the world.
Oh Toastmasters! I forgot to say I was looking for friends in Taiwan. Each
day it took more than an hour to download my email, and after one month, I
had over one million messages.
One day I received this message. It says:
"Hi John. my name's Mariah. I don't know where you are, but I'm in New
York. I'm young. famous. very attractive and sexy ( Hope you like my
photo? ) I'm rich too! I will fly anywhere in the world to meet you,
because I'm looking for a real man to love me 25 hours a day. John, I'm
waiting for your call. Please don't disappoint me. " Mariah,
and she kissed the message. Oh my God, I started to sweat, and
my heart was pounding with excitement. I couldn't wait to meet her.
I opened messages night and day for a year, until my hair turned gray and
my eyes turned square! Hinet don't send me regular email anymore. Every
day they send a truck to my door.
This is an interesting message. It says: Hello Mister John. I am
Natasha Krushev. I live in Moscow, Russia. Where are you? Mr. John, are
you interested in having romance with Russian Princess? It's true! I'm
Russian Princess. but I'm sick of Russian men. I want a good-looking
Canadian man like you. I like eating and I like drink beer too! Here's my
photo? Please send message. Love, Natasha.
I think my computer is my best friend because now I have lady friends in
all corners of the world. Of course, I also have some men friends too.
( Phone rings. ) Excuse me! ... It's another message, but it's from
someone in Taiwan. I'll put it on the screen for you.
( Tape ) This is CoCo. I'm in Taiwan. I wonder where you are? I'm
young and beautiful. John, what a fantastic body you have. I get hot just
looking at your photo! We'll have fun together? You "must" call me --
715-4571. I'm waiting!
it's amazing how many friends this computer has brought me. I'm not lonely
anymore. But after reading one million messages. I'm tired and my fingers
art sore!
All I really want is a nice girl to share my life. A friend, a lover,
maybe a wife! That's all I'm looking for!
CoCo emerges through the screen with a loud BANG! ( Scerrn Breaks )
J.p: CoCo!
CoCo: Lover boy. let's go!
J.P: climbs through the screen with CoCo pulling him by his tie. They turn
and pose in the screen opening and CoCo Kisses him on the cheek.
J.P: "My prayers have been answered!"
