Enjoy! This one has it all... The Dangers of Urban Legends: A friend of a friend just told me this, so it has to be true. Apparently, a young man, after recovering from a snake bite while eating at McDonalds, awoke in a bath tub full of ice, feeling very sore. When he got up, he noticed his kidneys had been stolen and saw a note on the mirror that said "Call 911!". On his way to call 911, he realized that his computer had a virus that would destroy his hard drive if he opened an e-mail entitled "Join the crew!" The man was a computer programmer who was working on software to save us from armageddon when the year 2000 rolls around and all the computers get together to distribute the $600 Neiman Marcus cookie recipe, under the leadership of Bill Gates, who told me all of this in a mass e-mail last week, which also promised a free Disneyworld vacation and $5,000. The poor man then tried to call 911 from a payphone and got jabbed with an HIV infected needle in the coin return slot before seeing a note that said, "Welcome to the world of AIDS." Finally, the wretch tried to drive himself to the hospital, saw a motorist with his lights off, flashed his lights at him, then was shot as part of a gang initiation. BEWARE!! ***Please post and pass on to everyone to make them aware of this danger*** SAFETY NOTE: BE CAREFUL AT MOVIE THEATERS!!!!!! INCIDENT AT A MOVIE THEATER, WHEN GOING TO A MOVIE, PLEASE CHECK YOUR CHAIRS WHEN GOING TO THE THEATERS!!!!!! An incident occurred when a friend's coworker went to sit in a chair and something was poking her. She then got up and found that it was a needle with a note at the end. It said, "Welcome to the real world, you're, "HIV POSITIVE". Doctors tested the needle and it was HIV POSITIVE. " BE CAUTIOUS WHEN GOING TO THE MOVIES!!!!" IF YOU MUST GO TO THE MOVIES, PLEASE, PLEASE CHECK!!!! One of the safest way is not by sticking your hands between the seats, but at least, move the seat part way up and down a few times and REALLY LOOK!!!! most of us just plop down into the seats..... The following information was E-mailed to all law enforcement on 11/3/98. Pay telephone drug users are now taking their used needles and putting them into the coin return slots in public telephones. People are putting their fingers in to recover coins or just to check if anyone left change. They are getting stuck by these needles and infected with hepatitis, HIV, and other diseases. ***Please post and pass on to everyone to make them aware of this danger*** |
