Whenever I receive a suspicious forward, I go to "snopes.com" get the truth on the matter and send it back to whoever sent me the junk in the first place. Man, has that pissed some people off...they hate to be proven wrong.

LOL--yes, those people who fwd all those long, idiotic hoaxes just HATE it when Snopes.com debunks them. One of my nieces used to send me everything like these that she ran across, and she insisted they were all true. I broke her of the habit by always sending her to Snopes. It took awhile, but I no longer get those annoying fwds. I don't know if it's because she's no longer so gullible, or if she just hates my responses. Either way, it works for me.
