in my email from stanley
Stanley sent me this:
After numerous rounds of We don’t know if Osama is still alive, Osama himself decided to send George Bush a letter in his own handwriting to let him know he was still in the game.
Bush opened the letter and it appeared to contain a single line of coded message:
370HSSV-0773H
Bush was baffled, so he e-mailed it to Condi Rice. Condi and her aides had no clue either, so they sent it to the FBI.
No one could solve it at the FBI so it went to the CIA, then to the NSA.
With no clue as to its meaning they eventually asked Britain’s MI-6 for help. Within a minute MI-6 cabled the White House with this reply:
“Tell the President he’s holding the message upside down!”
I don’t know where he found it and it’s probably posted on five million blogs, but I like it so I am posting it too. Baaa.
