Summary of my Last Year, or a Compendium of Forwarded Emails

contributed by Carol Dunn

    I must send my thanks to whoever sent me the one about poop in the glue on envelopes because I now have to use a wet towel with every envelope that needs sealing.

    I no longer have any savings because I gave it to a sick girl (Penny Brown) who is about to die in the hospital for the 1,387,258th time.

    I no longer have any money at all, but that will change once I receive the $15,000 that Bill Gates/Microsoft and AOL are sending me for participating in their special e-mail program.

    I no longer worry about my soul because I have 363,214 angels looking out for me, and St. Theresa′s novena has granted my every wish.

    I no longer eat at KFC because their chick­ens are actually horrible mutant freaks with no eyes or feathers.

    I no longer use cancer-causing deodorants even though I smell like a water

buffalo on a hot day.

    Thanks to you, I have learned that my prayers only get answered if I forward an email to seven of my friends and make a wish within five minutes.

    Because of your concern I no longer drink Coca Cola because it can remove

toilet stains.

    I no longer can buy gasoline without taking someone along to watch the car so a serial killer won′t crawl in my back seat when I′m pumping gas.

    And thanks for letting me know I can′t boil a cup of water in the microwave

anymore because it will blow up in my face, disfiguring me for life.

    I no longer check the coin return on pay phones because I could be pricked with a needle infected with AIDS.

    I no longer go to shopping malls because someone will drug me with a perfume sample and rob me.

    I no longer answer the phone because someone will ask me to dial a number for which I will get a phone bill with calls to Jamaica, Uganda, Singapore, and Uzbekistan.

    I no longer buy expensive cookies from Neiman Marcus since I now have their recipe.

    And thanks to your great advice, I can′t ever pick up the $5 I dropped in the parking lot because it probably was placed there by a sex molester waiting underneath my car to grab my leg.

     Have a wonderful day.
