One more reason to hate Boston!

It seems that Boston Red Sox (spit) pitcher Curt Shilling is involved in some shady dealings. He has secretly planned on moving to Nigeria with his family and needs help. He has requested that I join him and his family so that I may teach them English. I suppose that the annoying Boston accent is just too much for him to bare. Whatever he has done, it must be pretty bad since he is changing his and the rest of the family's names and nationality.

Unfortunately for me, he has sent out this offer to quite a few former and current English teachers in Korea. One took the initiative to ask for a family photo and this is what was sent.


The same photo can be found on Shilling's website.

Below is the text of the email "Fred" sent out.

Dear Teacher,

I want to know if you can come by July 2008 to teach my family English.
