I know some of you are like me, sick of receiving e-mails telling me to
send
them on the 5 people or whatever.
Love it! That one is on its way to several people who persist in doing
this
to me. ;-))
This was sent on to me buy someone who used to constantly send me messages
about amazing viruses (that were hoaxes) and hoax messages that had to be
sent on to 10 people so I would see an amazing video etc etc. I subscribed
her to Hoaxslayer
http://www.hoax-slayer.com:80/issue-80.shtml
and it's all
stopped.
I used to get this sort of treatment from an English friend who moved to USA
30 years ago, or more. One that she sent me was very 'happy clappy slushy
icky' and I wrote back telling her that if I sent his out to my (mostly)
English friends, they'd have me certified. She did apologise saying she'd
rather forgotten it wasn't in my nature to appreciate such things!
