And yeah, you were whooshed big time. But even so, I -like- that email. Of course, if I was to send it on to the glurgy types at the office I’d likely get fired\*.

I ask you - where’s the equality?

I reacted the same way you did, up until this line:

> The only thing you can do to FREE yourself is to praise SATAN three times and send the e-mail on to three friends. That will UNDO the Unforgiveable Sin and free you!
