My sister Robin over at Befrazzled has written a hilarious rant about email forwards. If you’ve ever been annoyed by a forwarded chain email this one’s for you.

Anyway if you get email forwards that are funny or cute that’s one thing but you ought to know there are others that perpetuate rumors or worse they’re phishing for your email.

So the next time you get an email that warns you about something or asks you to forward a warning to everyone you love, stop, go online and check at Snopes.com. Snopes runs down the rumors, scams, and myths on the internet. It has a quick what’s new section and even better you can type things in like “black lab puppies.” Find out if the urgent plea to adopt the adorable puppies is real or rumor.

Be careful out there.

P.S. I asked for pics of holiday decor, ‘ya ‘member? Meanwhile, no tree here yet! I’m so behind.
