Double dipping scammers?

It's been a long time since I tried an ad on Craiglist personals. As there hadn't been any hot pictures from scammers (actually, not even not-so-hot pictures), that sort of took the fun away.
The last batch of replies was so blatant and bad that I just have to share it, though. Here are the responses I got. Check out the dead-giveaway ending on both e-mails from http://www.localsdating.info/ fake users. The funny thing is how they're both trying to recruit me for the same website -- or maybe it's the same person trying two different approaches, hoping at least one will work?

Karina:

Hi, mister! I liked your ad. How are you doing today? The basics: blonde, way short. Blue eyes behind glasses. A few small tattoos, and a pierced bellybutton. I'm curvy without being thick, 5'4" and 127. Let's see, what else. My biggest secret is that I can pole dance. It's a secret because I'm a pastor's kid. Write me. If I don't answer right away, all apologies; I only check my email once a day. Take care.

Me:

Hi Karina!

Thank you for writing me.
It was a busy Sunday for me -- I finally got my dead laptop replaced, but with a desktop this time.

How was your weekend? (^_^)


Karina:

I just would like to have my hands and lips and cunt on your wang. No, I don't really care if I seem similar to a slut. When will we hook up? Want to see my picx? Of course you do! Go here: your locals match Ready? Cool. So. My user name (and don't laugh) is ekaterinaaa07 Lately I've been going to the gym every day just trying to work off some of this sexual tension. Til next time.

Ollie:

First time trying out a classified ad, Woohoo! Hope you're the right man described in your ad. No lies, no games? That is what you will get from me. I have dirty blond hair and greenish eyes. Best feature would have to be my cute smile. I am one of those people it's difficult to not smile back at. Do people even trust these stats? I am 36-25-34, 5'7". I do dancing classes so I don't get all musclebound. I think muscly women look horrid. I am going to school part time, working part time, raising my son part time. Wait, I think I just ran out of parts. Write me. If I don't answer right away, all apologies; I only check my email once a day. Take care.

Me:

Hi Ollie!

Thank you for writing me.
What are you studying in school?


Ollie:

Wow, many thanks for writing back so quickly! I am hoping that implies you want to get disrobed and possibly horizontal as much as I want to. I would like to go parking, and get completely crazy in the backseat of the car just before we actually bang. I miss the bit when noone knows whether it's really going to happen. this page So join, activate, and search for me. My user name is wildchyld23 I intend to start the evening with chocolate-covered cherries and champagne. I don't know about anybody else, but that's an aphrodisiac for me. I'm still emailing with you, so in my eyes that means we're going to meet. I can't wait to do this!

Trafalgar's European Explorer 2006 memoirs part 3

A picture from my 2006 trip, a Trafalgar 's bus tour, on an itinerary called the European Explorer. I can't remember why I had this couple in the picture, but I do vaguely remember this to be in London, on the first official day of the tour group getting together. Their insistence on my helping them take a picture caused the three of us to be late getting back to the bus. The local tour guide had a "rule" about lateness, that we had to buy chocolate to share with everyone. As it turned out, later in the trip, on at least two occasions, we were stuck on the highway on either a long commute or a traffic jam, and I had chocolate and chocolate-covered marzipan to share. About the chocolate-covered marzipan -- Apparently we were in Austria just as they were celebrating Mozart's birthday with special marzipans wrapped in foil with the famous composer's picture. I'm pretty sure it was Mirabell Mozartkugeln . Anyway, there were enough to go around the en

Trafalgar's European Explorer 2006 memoirs part 10

The last of my pictures (at least the ones that survived the cheesy disposable cameras) from my 2006 trip, a Trafalgar 's bus tour, on an itinerary called the European Explorer. Below is the obligatory group photo. Not sure everyone's in it, actually. I'm pretty sure this one was taken by the tour director, Mike Scrimshire as I'm in the back row, on the right side.

Trafalgar's European Explorer 2006 memoirs part 9

More assorted couples on my 2006 trip, a Trafalgar 's bus tour, on an itinerary called the European Explorer. An American couple who joked about being from "the land of the giants" -- and with good reason, because both of them were really tall! A cute Jewish mother-daughter pair who ducked out part-way to divert to Israel. I vaguely remember the issue of the daughter being an orthodox Jew was highlighted in France when, to make things easy, she just declared herself vegetarian for the wait staff. I also remember there was some logistics error in France because our party size was way underestimated or simply relayed incorrectly, and there was a shortage of food at dinner. Dessert came as an unopened can of yogurt. It did not seem like they tried to make it up to us later, either. Plus there was smoking every which way in France, and I had a helluva time with that. We were also in a hotel that seemed tucked away in the burbs, and not walking distance from anythin
