Bill Gates to be Knighted

Posted in Bill Gates by Elliott Back on March 2nd, 2005.

Neil Turner points out an article about Bill Gates receiving an honorary knighthood in a private ceremony from the Queen. Since Mr. Gates is not a citizen of the British Empire, he will not retain the right to add the prefix “Sir” to his name. Also, an American citizen cannot hold title in the US proper. Bill Gates receives the award for charitable work done by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation.

    To Whom It May Concern,

    I am writing this letter concerning me being unable to make payments on my student loans. In the last few years, I have been plagued with a number of illnesses; which require my having to take a number of prescription drugs. The cost of these medication, as well as doctor visits and hospital stays, have put me in a position to be unable to make require payments on my student loan. I struggle just to pay my medical bills. I do not want to become default on my student loans. Is there some kind of scholarship program I can enroll in? Are there any types of grants that accommodate a situation such as mine? Any help you could give in helping me resolve this problem would be greatly appreciated.

    Sincerely,

    Graylen Todd Graham

    Sounds like you're SOL Graylen, unless of course you've got medical contacts outside the disunited states of scamica. You're a poor blowtard of the biggest government-sponsored medical scam in world history. Deal with it, or threaten then with your puny vote.

    Dear Reggie,

    I do not appreciate your nasty insensitive response to my letter. I wrote that letter a couple of years ago during a very difficult time in my life. Since then, I have been able to make arrangements concerning my student loan. Also, my medical bills are all caught up. God has blessed me richly. I give Him the praise and the glory for the many miracles
    He has preformed in my life. It is easy to criticize someone when you have never encountered their situation. I pray that you are never put in such a situation.

    Sincerely,

    Graylen Todd Graham
