It wasn’t Oprah he didn’t appear on, it was Phil Donahue he didn’t appear on 
Seriously, that story short-circuited a potential resurgence of interest in Christian faith at my college in 1982, and then re-emerged twice over the next decade at my church, fortunately both times being refuted by the pastor (if the pastor had promoted this crap, I’d have gotten a new church).
Oh, no, the Chevy Nova sold just fine in Mexico. It was Canada where the problem erupted, because “nova” in Canadian means “exploding star”, and no one wanted to drive a car that sounded like it was going to explode.
Hope this helps,

I just checked and the email had no mention of outdated toothpaste, just the high flouride content.
Oh great! :rolleyes: Missy’s going all postal and in a couple years we’ll be getting emails containing dire warnings regarding co-workers who go berzerk and run around offices ripping out hard drives and shoving them up other co-workers asses because she kept getting email glurge.
I appreciate the sentiment, of course, but my mother is out of hand. I spent 4 hours the other week removing the Sasser worm, AVG found 273 infected files and Spybot and Ad-Aware had a field day. This is a woman on a dial up connection who logs on, checks email and maybe eBay. I give up though, she’s hopeless.

What I hate are the random female coworkers who forward “cute” powerpoint slideshows of puppies and kittens and Anne Geddes babies and friendship poems and other such crap. Cause that kitten hangin’ in there just never stops being cute, does it?
Dear sweet little baby Virgin Mary, thank you for blessing me twith intelligent administrative staff. Since the first day of working here, I have not received one urban legend, friendship poem, glurge, anti-liberal stories, or any other e-mail messages along the same lines. In fact, the admin staff have complained to me when they get messages forwarded to them by the glurgey kountry kitschy women working in other departments. They know about Snopes.
I love my job.
Man, those Nigerian businessmen can be bitchy.
I got my second scam letter (diamonds or something) less than a week after my first one (gold or something). So, I replied to the second one telling him that I’d already put all my money into the gold supergoodhappyinvestmentdeal from the first letter.
I got a really bitchy response saying that I shouldn’t be making fun of his predicament and all that.
It was kind of funny.
