Just a word to the wise.  E-mail petitions are NOT acceptable to Congress or any other municipality.  To be acceptable petitions must have a signed signature and full address. Same with "prayer chains" - be wary.

Almost all e-mails that ask you to add your name and forward on to others are similar to that mass letter years ago that asked people to send business cards to the little kid in Florida who wanted to break the Guinness Book of Records for the most cards.  All it was, and all this type of e-mail is, is to get names and "cookie" tracking info for tele-marketers and spammers to validate active e-mail accounts for their own purposes.

Any time you see an e-mail that says forward this on to "10" of your friends, sign this petition, or you'll get good luck, or whatever, it has either an e-mail tracker program attached that tracks the cookies and e-mails of those folks you forward to, or the host sender is getting a copy each time it gets forwarded and then is able to get  lists of "active" e-mails to use in spam e-mails, or sell to others  that do.

(If you have been sending out the above kinds of email, now you know why you get so much spam!)

A Little Humor ...

JOKES...

    Have you ever been guilty of looking at others your own age and thinking, surely I can't look that old.  Well....you'll love this one.
    My name is Alice Smith and I was sitting in the waiting room for my first appointment with a new dentist.  I noticed the dentist's DDS diploma, which bore his full name.
    Suddenly, I remembered a tall, handsome, dark-haired boy with the same name that had been in my high school class 30-odd years ago.  Could he be the same guy I had a secret crush on, way back when?
    Upon seeing him, however, I quickly discarded any such thought.  This balding, gray-haired man with the deeply lined face was way to old to have been my classmate.
    After he examined my teeth, I asked him if he had attended Morgan Park High School.
    "Yes. Yes, I did.  I'm a Mustgang," he gleamed with pride.
    " When did you graduate?"  I asked.
    He answered, "In 1975....why do you ask?"
    "You were in my class!", I exclaimed.
    He looked at me closely.
    Then, that
    Ugly, Old, Bald, Wrinkled, Fat, Gray-haired, Decrepit SOB asked,
    "What did you teach ???

DURING HIS CHILDHOOD, EBERT "SONNY" WALTERS WAS COUNSELED BY HIS TOUGH OLD COWBOY GRANDFATHER FROM WYOMING THAT IF HE WANTED TO LIVE A LONG LIFE, THE SECRET WAS TO SPRINKLE A PINCH OF GUN POWDER ON HIS OATMEAL EVERY MORNING. HIS FAMILY SAID EBERT DID THAT RELIGIOUSLY EVERY MORNING.

HE OUTLIVED HIS WIFE IONA BY 52 YEARS, HE DIED LAST THURSDAY AT AGE 104. 

EBERT LEFT BEHIND 14 CHILDREN, 30 GRANDCHILDREN, 45 GREAT-GRAND-CHILDREN, 25 GREAT-GREAT-GRANDCHILDREN,
AND A 15 FOOT DEEP HOLE WHERE THE CREMATORIUM USED TO BE.


Wooden Leg Insurance:
A man and his wife, moved back home to West Virginia, from Ohio. The husband had a wooden leg, and to insure it back in Ohio cost them $2000 per year!
When they arrived in West Virginia, they went to an insurance agency to see how much it would cost to insure his wooden leg.
The agent looked it up on the computer and said: '$39.'
The husband was shocked and asked why it was so cheap here in West Virginia to insure it because it cost him $2000 in Ohio!
The insurance agent turned his computer screen to the Couple and said, 'Well, here it is on the screen, it says: Any wooden structure, with a sprinkler system above it, is $39... You just have to know how to describe it!'
