A bit of a public service announcement...
For those of you who are forwarding the images and messages to your friends in emails and public forums to "see the really cool thing that happens when you forward this pic to seven other people", please stop. Trust me, nothing will happen when you forward it to your friends other then you irritate the crap out of them.

What brought this about Craig? 
Was someone sending chain e-mails around?

They come in an email or are passed around on places like Facebook and MySpace.
There will be a little picture and then a message that says stuff like:
"Forward this to at least 7 people and see what happens on your screen . You will laugh your head off.
This is the coolest thing I have ever gotten. All you have to do is send it to 7 people and watch your screen, it is the funniest clip. I can't tell you what it is but I was laughing so hard I almost fell off my chair! So, send it to those 7 people and watch.
This works. I don't know how....but it works."
This stuff is filling up my inboxes and message centers. It amazes me how many people seem to think that some cool thing will happen if they forward an email.

I never understood the whole My Space thing anyway...I'm not even gonna' get into that... But this "Foward to 7 people" thing has been going around for a long time and it's always annoyed me... I always thought it had to do with gathering email addresses but it's just a load of crap... Craig, lean on that delete button bud...

I've also got an email that said that the government is going to tax people's emails.
I also can't stand the ones that have a really nice poem, etc., and then at the bottom of the emails they state something like "If you love Jesus, you'll forward this email. If you don't forward the email, you don't love Him and will burn in hell for the rest of your life".

also there are those ones where the email says something like:
If you forward this email to 20 people, 20 days later something amazing will happen.
Larry did this and 20 days later he won the lottery.
George did this and 20 days later he got a promotion.
etc.
People sometimes
