I used to write alot of very good posts. I really did. I read some of the old stuff the other day, and damn, I was like....entertaining back then. WTF happened. I'm still just as riled up about stuff, but I guess I'm lazier. meh, you'll have that.

Today's not-nearly-as-entertaining-as-I-used-to-be entry is brought to you by Myspace, and my email inbox. Today, we're going to discuss Internet scams. Everyone has heard them. you see them in your inbox, tempting you to believe in their lies... "Target is french, veteran hating corporation"... "Some Company will give you a dollar if you forward this". Some of my personal favorites are the "perfume bandits", "Gas Boycott" and "Mercury light bulbs will bankrupt you" hoaxes going around now. Hell, the Light bulb one even ended up on Fark's front page as real news (retraction posted later, of course). Every one of these is pretty much an out and out lie. Most people don't even realize they are spreading them, they automatically assume, since someone they know emailed it to them, that it's true. Do yourself a favor kids, head on over and read Snopes.com.
It's fun for the whole family. And, the next time someone perpetuates a falsehood in your vicinity, you can be an ass like me and shut down their little tirade.
