If you receive an e-mail with a subject line of "FEAR," delete it
immediately WITHOUT reading it.
This is the most dangerous e-mail virus yet.
It will rewrite your hard drive. Not only that, but it will
scramble any disks that are even close to your computer. It will re
calibrate your refrigerators coolness setting so all your ice cream
melts and milk curdles.
It will demagnetize the strips on all your credit cards, re program
your ATM access code, screw up the tracking on your VCR and use sub
space field harmonics to scratch any CDs you try to play.
It will give your "ex" your new phone number. It will mix
antifreeze into your fish tank. It will drink all your beer and
leave its dirty socks on the coffee table when there's company
coming over.
It will hide your car keys when you are late for work and interfere
with your car radio so that you hear only static while stuck in
traffic.
FEAR will make you fall in love with a hardened criminal. It will
give you nightmares about circus midgets.
It will replace your shampoo with Nair and your Nair with Rogaine,
all while dating your current partner behind your back and billing
their hotel rendezvous to your VISA card.
It will seduce your grandmother. It does not matter if she is
dead, such is the power of FEAR. It reaches out beyond the grave to
sully those things we hold most dear.
FEAR will give you Dutch Elm disease. It will leave the toilet
seat up and leave the hair dryer plugged in dangerously close to a
full bathtub. It will remove the forbidden tags from your
mattresses and pillows, and refill your skim milk with whole. It is
insidious and subtle.
It is dangerous and terrifying to behold. It is also a rather
interesting shade of mauve.
These are just a few signs. Be very, very afraid. AND PLEASE
FORWARD THIS MESSAGE TO EVERYONE YOU KNOW!!!
