E-mail Courtesy and Safety

Ok, I am getting SICK and TIRED of recieving forwarded letters where you need to scroll through 52billion pages just to get to the letter part! It's time people learned some email courtesy:

1. When sending warnings about emails containing viruses going around, make sure your facts are correct first! To check if a virus warning is true, a good site to use is http://www.snopes.com
2. Always always ALWAYS copy and paste emails so you don't have to open 52billion attachments to get the message!
3. Erase email addresses of previous senders or you might end up getting emails from people you don't know! Most of you don't really care about this part, what with Myspace and stuff these days, but it is seriously important! You don't realise how many hackers and stalkers there are out there.....outside of Brunei, that is.
4. Check with anti-virus software before opening emails.
   
   Thank you for listening, and hopefully you will actually use these tips before you send someone another email....

Wake Up and Smell the "Roses"....

Why do people commit suicide?

Why do people cut themselves?

Why do girls become annorexic and bulimic?

Why do kids bring guns to school?

Why do kids get so depressed they start abusing meds?

Why do some girls feel the need to act like sluts to impress guys?

Why can't people show their sexuality freely, without worrying about being judged?

Why are we afraid to speak up for ourselves?

Why do people talk behind others backs and not to their faces?

Why can't we all just accept people for who they are?

We live in a world where if you're not skinny, not beautiful, not sexy, not straight...you're TORTURED, ABUSED, and HUMILIATED. We say that we are all EQUAL but there is still racism, sexism, and people judging other people based on their religion, color, size, heritage, ETC.

Are these the nations we live in and fight wars to support?

I AM SICK OF IT!

Stereotypes, and everything else! I want to live in a GOOD place, WITHOUT suicide, rape, murder, and JUDGEMENT!

I hope this made you think a little....

We try to save the poor, but we have these problems too.

Everything concerns YOU.

Your life isn't meaningless.

Actions speak louder than words, but words can do something too.

I'm trying to do my part; are you?

Don't Be Blue If Your Heart Is Cruel

Are you still complaining?

Observe around you and be thankful for all that you have in this transitory lifetime...

We are fortunate, we have much more than we need to be content.

Let's try not to feed this endless cycle of consumerism and immortality in which this "modern and advanced" society forgets and ignores the other two thirds of our brothers and sisters.

Let us complain less and give more!

NEWSFLASH! - Pillsbury Doughboy Dies!

I get so many forwards these days, but can't be bothered to forward them! This "news flash" is a must read :P :

SAD NEWS... Please join me in remembering a great icon of the entertainment community. The Pillsbury Doughboy died yesterday of a yeast infection and trauma complications from repeated pokes in the belly. He was 71.

Doughboy was buried in a lightly greased coffin. Dozens of celebrities turned out to pay their respects, including Mrs. Butterworth, Hungry Jack, the California Raisins, Betty Crocker, the Hostess Twinkies, and Captain Crunch. The grave site was piled high with flours.

Aunt Jemima delivered the eulogy and lovingly described Doughboy as a man who never knew how much he was kneaded. Doughboy rose quickly in show business, but his later life was filled with turnovers. He was not considered a very smart cookie, wasting much of his dough on half-baked schemes. Despite being a little flaky at times he still was a crusty old man and was considered a positive roll model for millions.

Doughboy is survived by his wife Play Dough, two children, John Dough and Jane Dough, plus they had one in the oven. He is also survived by his elderly father, Pop Tart.

The funeral was held at 3:50 for about 20 minutes.
