Hmmm... I manage my own e-mail. I wonder if I could just pretend to be 10 different people.

Woa there!! $500 bucks or a digital camera for telling only 10 people to visit a website? That sounds outrageously too good to be true... are you sure this is legit?

--Stevo--

I got 6 people after my first 10 mins of being signed up.. I'll have 10 by the end of the day. Lets just see if they send the money..

It was most obviously a little thing I like to call *sarcasm*. This is just another pyramid scheme, not unlike the numerous emails I get every day telling me to send $5 to an address and I'll start recieving money really soon.

That and those dumb 'Ashley is only 7 years old, and was born without a brain. Please send ...' it's sad that people (namely my grandmother) actually send in wads of cash to help. *shakes head in disgust*

--Stevo--

Rule A number 1: If it's too good to be true, it is, and that will never *never* change.

Pyramid scheme eh? HEhe...actually my friend got his already and I'll be seeing if I get mine in 5 days. Good luck to the rest of you as well. And anyway, if it isnt true, the comapnies in for some major legal problems... <img border=0 align=absmiddle src="http://www.ozones.com/forum/smile.gif">

Btw, i never figured out those nieman marcus cookies... do those actually work?

i'm laughing so hard that i could cry...

cheers.mikey.milker

enliten me mikey.. i have no idea if those cookies actually bake into cookies.. hehe.. tell me! <img border=0 align=absmiddle src="http://www.ozones.com/forum/smile.gif">

Actually, the cookie thing is older than the web, way older. My Mom brought home a copy of the recipe, she got it as a fax at work and it was making the rounds of her office. This was back in the late 70's, I belive? For reference, I tried baking those cookies, and they really sucked. Dry, tasteless and boring.

Your pal, -doc-

actually i was laughing about the sony mavica camera, and that whole ordeal surrounding it...

as for the cookies, i got the recipe probably 6 years ago.. and i actually made them! either i got another recipe, or doc is a worse cook than me hehe. but they were damn good cookies, though i had a feeling they would be from reading the recipe before i even started them.

blah.

OK, dork check...Neiman Marcus cookies? Can someone explain this one to me?

Well Ive always been a big Chips Ahoy fan, and when Im feeling exotic I go for the Oreos but these so called "Neiman Marcus cookies" as you say ... not a clue what they are. Explain please.

while back someone wanted the cookie recipe from neiman marcus and asked someone who worked there for it, she said it'd be some riduculously small amount of money, she ended up getting billed for a ridiculously large amount of money, so she put the recipe into a mailing list and sent it to virtually everyone in the world.

End of story: Good cookies.

it's actually a big urban legend... the recipe that is distributed across the internet is not the real recipe for neiman marcus chocolate chip cookies. i've had the cookies from neiman marcus and they're better than the recipe and definitely different content. on the other hand, the recipe for the real cookies isn't a big secret either--if i recall correctly, the recipe is located in a cookbook or two.

Ahh the Neiman Marcus Cookie story:


FWD: Free Neiman-Marcus Cookie Recipe

This is a true story... Please forward it to everyone that you can.... You will have to read it to believe it....

My daughter and I had just finished a salad at Neiman-Marcus Cafe in Dallas & decided to have a small dessert. Because both of us are such cookie lovers, we decided to try the "Neiman-Marcus Cookie". It was so excellent that I asked if they would give me the recipe and the waitress said with a small frown "I'm afraid not." Well" I said, "would you let me buy the recipe?"

With a cute smile, she said YES". I asked how much and she responded, "Only two fifty, it's a great deal!" I said with approval, "just add it to my tab".. Thirty days later, I received my VISA statement from Neiman-Marcus and it was $285.00. I looked again and remembered I had only spent $9.95 for two salads and about $20.00 for a scarf. As I glanced at the bottom of the statement, it said, "Cookie Recipe - $250.00". That's outrageous!!!

I called Neiman's Accounting Dept. and told them that the waitress said it was "two-fifty," which clearly does not mean "two hundred and fifty dollars" by any POSSIBLE interpretation of the phrase. Neiman-Marcus refused to budge.. They would not refund my money, because according to them, "What the waitress told you is not our problem. You have already seen the recipe - we absolutely will not refund your money at this point." I explained to her the criminal statutes which govern fraud in Texas. I threatened to refer them to the Better Business Bureau and the State's Attorney General for engaging in fraud. I was basically told, "Do what you want, we dont give a damn, and we're not refunding your money." I waited a moment, thinking of how I could get even,or even try to get any of my money back. I just said, "Okay, you folks got my $250.00, and now I'm going to have $250.00 worth of fun."

I told her that I was going to see to it that every cookie lover in the United States with an e-mail account has a $250.00 cookie recipe from Neiman-Marcus... for free..She replied, "I wish you wouldn't do this" I said, "Well you should have thought of that before you ripped me off", and slammed down the phone on her.. So, here it is!!! Please, please, please pass it on to everyone you can possibly think of. I paid $250.00 dollars for this... I don't want Neiman-Marcus to ever get another penny off of this recipe....

(Recipe may be halved):
2 cups butter
4 cups flour
2 tsp. baking soda
2 cups granulated sugar
2 cups brown sugar
5 cups blended oatmeal (measure oatmeal and blend in blender to a fine powder)
24 oz. chocolate chips
1 tsp. salt
1 8 oz. Hershey bar (grated)
4 eggs
2 tsp. baking powder
3 cups chopped nuts (your choice)
2 tsp. vanilla

Cream the butter and both sugars. Add eggs and vanilla; mix together with flour, oatmeal, salt, baking powder, and soda. Add chocolate chips, Hershey bar and nuts. Roll into balls and place two inches apart on a cookie sheet..Bake for 10 minutes at 375 degrees. Makes 112 cookies.. Have Fun!!!

This is not a joke - this is a true story... Ride free citizens!!!! This isn't some stupid chain letter either.. pass it on.. if you don't, you won't die or get dumped.. you'll just do the world an injustice...

Thanx...

yup.. that's the exact one i got. other than the fact the story there is complete bullshit, the cookes aren't half-bad. though it is somewhat of a pain in the ass to make.. i usually just make godiva brownies from costco and throw in lots of pot...

er...
