I peruse Craigslist quite a bit, and if one thing stand out, it is this: A great many people out there have a very poor command of the English language.

Yours is but one example of many sadly.

I agree but this one has an extra dose of WTF.

I'm hoping he's an international student.....

Watching some of the Thai students in my MBA program, it was a wonder they were allowed to pass. They just stuck within their own circle of friends, and the papers they wrote were horrible. OK they spelled correctly, but they didn't know how to make their point or use good grammar. In team projects they end up being the "data miners" while the others write the presentation.

If he was from Nigeria, the jetski would have been the property of his Great Uncle General Yanni Mutbutto, and he'd be offering you $25,000,000,000 to store it for him.

Did you have to take the GMAT or GRE to get into your program?
