I don't know how many people were actually taken by this; wifey wrote back to her friend to tell her that this was satire, and not to be taken seriously.

But that is indeed the beauty of the internet. It seems to have it's own "checks & balances." There are as many if not more sane people using it as insane. I can't count the number of emails I have had to reply to with the urbanlegends site affixed to let people know that what they are sending to their friends is in reality a hoax or blatantly untrue. However, I believe most are like you that they take most of what they read with a grain of salt until they find some verification.

But it feels good to get a tweak in now and then doesn't it?

Oh, yeah. I think it's great. Ha! I'm sure my eyebrows climbed halfway to my hairline when she read me her e-mail.

It's my new favorite line: Whaaaat?
