I was perusing the Internet and came across this one. Thought it was pretty good.
Dear Doc: I'll confess to you that I've started conversing with other banjo players over the Internet. It's been just a lot of chat so far, but it's getting more serious, to the point where I'm tempted to travel and meet one of these players in person. My question is, how can I be sure I don't fall into one of those "stings" involving a police officer on the 'net just impersonating a banjo player? -- No name please, Kansas
Dear No -- If you play banjo and somebody says they want to meet you, that sounds pretty fishy right there. Assume it's a sting. -- Dr. N.
