Kersaint Cobb Makes Me Eat Crow

So far seven scammers have responded to my work queries on Craig’s List. Kersaint Cobb is my favorite con artist thus far, but Mayowa Wilson is a close second. They sent identical emails (poor grammar word for word, except the names) asking me to tutor a son who would be visiting from Germany. Kersaint wins because he responded a day sooner. For my convenience, they would be willing to pay me 40$ an hour via Western Union, plus they would send me extra so I could pay the “nanny” that would bring his son to lessons. I told Kersaint that I only accept cash and that he needs to pay the nanny himself, and so far he hasn’t responded.

Crow tastes alright, if eating it means we will be able to leave Lawrence with no student loans. I’ll be using my Bachelor’s degree in English—with an emphasis in creative writing—to clean offices. I get to choose my hours, and I can bring Bella. What more could I ask? I start Thursday at 3:00.
