Grandparents recently discovered interne t, HELP!

“Okay, I just got this email from my Grandfather! No joke. I couldn't post the images embedded in it, so I'll just describe them in parentheses...here's the email:


If I don't get this back, I will know you really didn't read it. I got this from someone and thought the last part was really a good thought.

(“Special Friends Last Forever,” in pink sparkles)

Too bad that the person who sent it to me did not know 10 people who would admit to knowing the Lord.

(Girl sitting on a swing with Jesus hovering in the air behind her)

If I send this to you, please send it back so I will know that my friends do know the Lord.

I know 10 people.
Do You Love Him?

(“I love him” in red sparkles)

(Baby mouse)

This is a simple test:
IF YOU LOVE JESUS, SEND
THIS TO AT LEAST 10 PEOPLE, INCLUDING
THE PERSON WHO SENT IT TO YOU!

(Jesus)

“Will you die in an horrific chainsaw accident if you don't forward it?”

“We can only hope! And not only that, but rot in hell, as well.”

“My father has dicovered how to send text messages internationally. I now get random text messages in a bastardized version of text talk.
I normally have to call him and ask him what the hell he's talking about.”

“Wow. You have grandparents?”

“Poor lyra.”

“I thought Lyra was created in a lab!!”

“Yeah, and I also had a great-grandmother until a couple months ago! My Grandpops has an obsessive need to forward political and religious messages about once every 5 minutes...never mind that I would never dream of sending him messages about my political/religious beliefs! It's so weird, because he would never talk about that stuff in person, all he does is hang out and smile.

I just thought it was a really hilarious email, had to share it!”

“LOL I think someone needs to remove the forward message option on my grandmother's email. She keeps forwarding me jokes, most of which I can’t post on TT due to Matt’s word filters. There’s just something not right about getting an email full of curse words from one's grandmother.”

“Hopefully when he doesn't get this back from me, he'll get the "hint." LMAO!

Funny, LZ!!”

“My mom gets that crap from some friends of hers all the time. She's still learning to adjust her email filters.”

“Those flakey e-mails are the worst!!

Pass it on my arse!!!

Swingin' with Jesus??
Too much!!”

“My granny is always sending me porno she finds on the web. It's very disturbing.”

“Go Granny, Go!!!”

“I'm sure glad that lyrapoo made this a Fuego thread! ;-)”

“lyra -

Send this link to your grandparents and tell them if they don't pass it on to at least 10 people, their hard drive will be erased: http://violinbackpacker.tripod.com/homepage.html”

“HAHA!!! Now that would be priceless, Violin.

I should clarify, it's their joint email account but my G'pops is the only one who ever uses it. G'ma has my sense of humor, I bet if she saw that email she'd projectile vomit, too.

“Violin, you're a genius!!”

Show them the way that you feel
Things are gonna work out fine if you only will.

“oh man, now that her first grandchild is on the way my mom's been talking about "getting on that internet thing"...i can only imagine the kind of emails i would get”

“This is good readin'. Please update us with how this unfolds. This is rich indeed.”

“Hey! Please keep the "chatter" off of "fuego"! Some of us have chatter unchecked for a reason!”

“LOL Sarge.”
