- This is the first time I've seen this sort of message on the internet,
- but I have seen it before in the "insurance" agency. It usually goes
- like this:
-
- * Notice To: Small business owners, shopkeepers, or Vested Interest
- * Merchants. Due to [insert your organization here]'s limited list of
- * customers, it is not our policy to remove anyone from our list of
- * potential hazards free of charge. To be removed from our list of
- * potential hazards, a [daily/weekly/monthy/yearly] charge of [insert
- * your price] is required. Just place the money in an plain brown paper
- * bag (please use unmarked small bills). One of our associates will stop
- * by to pick up the payment.
-
- * Furthermore, [your organization's name] reserves the right to cancel
- * its protection policy at anytime. Cancellation of our policy by outside
- * parties is prohibited, and will be charged a [insert your price] fee per
- * cancellation. Proof of cancellation will be sent to all parties
- * involved, delivered personally by group of our associates.
- * [your organization's name] will protect and maintain its interest.

- So, do we get to keep our lunch money, or do they want that too?
