cathyo Posted March 8 Report Share Posted March 8 this was emailed to me todayPlease Read --it could end up saving your life.This is from Schwab corporate headquarters - it's not a joke - it's very scary.Just when you thought you were safe, now we have the following to deal with...please read - it definitely is a serious threat to our lives and health.This is an alert about a virus in the original sense of the word...one that affects your body, not you're hard-drive. There have been 23 confirmed cases of people attacked by the Klingerman Virus, a virus that arrives in your real mailbox, not your e-mail in box. Someone has been mailing large blue envelopes, seemingly at random, to people inside the US. On the front of the envelope in bold black letters is printed, "A gift for you from the Klingerman Foundation." When the envelopes are opened, there is a small sponge sealed in plastic. This sponge carries what has come to be known as the Klingerman Virus, as public health officials state this is a strain of virus they have not previously encountered. When asked for comment, Florida police Sergeant Stetson said, "We are working with the CDC and the USPS, but have so far been unable to track down the origins of these letters. The return addresses have all been different, and we are certain a re-mailing service is being used, making our jobs that much more difficult."Those who have come in contact with the Klingerman Virus have been hospitalized with severe dysentery. So far seven of the twenty-three victims have died. There is no legitimate Klingerman Foundation mailing unsolicited gifts. If you receive an oversized blue envelope in the mail marked "A gift from the Klingerman Foundation", DO NOT Open It. Place it in a strong plastic bag or container and call the police immediately. The "gift" is one you definitely do not want to open.PLEASE PASS THIS ON TO EVERYONE YOU CARE ABOUT.Mrs. Sandra Dee McNair-Boyd Social Work Secretary Yale New Haven HospitalDepartment of Social Work203-688-2256------------------ "A mind that is stretched by a new experience can never go back to it's old dimensions."~*~*~Don't use time or words carelessly, neither can be retrieved.~*~*~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boa_boy Posted March 8 Report Share Posted March 8 urban myth perhaps------------------"At the peak of tremendous and victorious effort, while the blood is pounding in your head, all suddenly comes quiet within you. Everything seems clearer and whiter than ever before, as if great spotlights had been turned on. At that moment, you have the conviction that you contain all the power in the world, that you are capable of everything, that you have wings. There is no more precise moment in life than this, the WHITE MOMENT, and you will work hard for years, just to taste it again.''Yuri Vlason. -----------PM sux email is better-------> boa_boy@yahoo.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Easy there killer! No "motherfucker's fooled my ass"...thus the title of the thread..."I don't know if this is true or not".
