Friends don’t let friends….

Note: Photo removed due to problems with the website shutting down.

If you are looking at this photo, you are probably thinking, WHAT?!! Well, I caught my kids’ strep throat. And I’ve been too sick to write anything serious. So this blog will be on a lighter note, but about something which affects us all.

Just in the last 24 hours I have received the following forwarded email messages: “Incredible 11 year old yodeler”, “Recall on OTC medications”, and “Cute cats”. The above picture is just a taste of the dog-lover’s nightmare which was unleashed in my inbox.

These photos are an English teacher’s nightmare, too! I puzzled over the meaning of these photos, and the only conclusion I could come to was that the cats were smart enough to use photoshop to upload and edit their photos, but incapable of spelling correctly or speaking without a lisp.

And of course, who can forget recently forwarded classics such as “Finkelstein and Jesus”, “Why pets hate Halloween”, and “Bambi and Thumper DO exist!”

Just as with handgun purchases, I propose a 24 hour “cooling off” period for all quick-draw forwarders with an itchy mouse finger. If you still think that email is genius after a day has elapsed, forward away!

Otherwise, “Just say ‘No!'”
