Greetings Rage,

I got one earlier this week, and a friend forwarded me one too, so yes, it seems a new worm
is around.

I have to admit there is a certain amount of amusement when someone you haven't spoken to in
9 years randomly starts linking you to diet sites

Hi Rage,

Someone once told me that being online was "no fun" if they couldn't click all the links. I
think that about sums it up.
