IJMC - The Final Chain Letter

You all should know that I _HATE_ chain letters. So why am I sending this 
one? Because I'm not only a client, I'm also the president. Really, I'm 
sending it because I believe in this one. No more chain letters, and no 
more worry about the kosmic karma (the karma kredit kard, buy now, pay 
forever!) involved in sending or not sending other chain mail. And I can 
always be overly optimistic (and not overly clear) and think that this 
one could actually do what it says. Well, that's enough. You have nine 
copies to make, I made my 500+...                                   -dave

                ***THIS IS THE WORLD'S FINAL CHAIN LETTER***

        You have been sent a blessing.  Those who have followed the
instructions on this letter have received good fortune, as you will.  The
rewards of this letter supercede the promises of all other letters you may
have received.  This is the final chain letter you will ever send.  It's
instructions are simple,  to recieve the fortune that has graced those who
have received this before you, follow these steps.

* The grace that re-creates

        1. Make nine unaltered copies of this note, and send each copy to a
friend or stranger within nine days of recieving this.  This completed, you
will have recieved not only luck and positive karma, but you have  been
PERMANENTLY released from the obligation to send another chain letter.

* The snake that eats its own tail.

        2. Never heed another chain-letter.  By sending this letter you have
already incured the fortune promised by all future letters you will receive.
Ignore or destroy all future chain letters that you come in contact with.
To send another chain letter is to break the gift given you by this letter.
If you have already received and sent this letter, and you are recieving it
again, destroy this copy.  This letter will circle the globe, freeing its
recipients from the need to send future chain letters, and, its task
completed, will eventually destroy itself in the same manner.  Not sending
this letter curses you with ill-fortune that is the dark mirror of the good
fortune you could have recieved.  To ignore this letter is to recieve the
bad luck or ill-fortune mentioned in all future chain letters you will
receive.  Only those who follow the instructions above will receive the
double blessing of luck and freedom from all future chain letters.  Just as
sending it blessed you with the luck of all chain letters, not sending it
curses you with the misfortune.  Sending another chain letter after this one
brings the same misfortune as well.  This is the world's final chain letter!

This is Mac.                                            \\\\|////
He wants to travel the world.                           ( O   O )
Please leave him with this chain letter.           ---oOOo--U--oOOo---
