WTF? :|
 
HaHaHaHa. 🙂

I have run across so many people that know better than to belive everything on TV, or phone scams etc. But they think anything transmitted via email is GOSPEL.

Truley sad!
 
I would really like for someone to explain to me exactly how sending text over the internet will raise money? It never made sense to me, yet so many people start and forward these stupid things. Especially the annoying URL fwds on ICQ and such ... NO ICQ IS NOT SHUTTING DOWN OR CHARGING $$!! :|
