Save Somebody Some Embarrassment

I know this is off the point subject, but the board is too slow, so thought I might give it some input.
Kinda liven things up a little.

Everyone gets those forwarded e-mails on hogzilla, or the 20' alligator in New Orleans after Catrina. Or the new one going around about Nancy Pelosi taxing your retirement. I used to forward those out just like everybody else when I received them. Then one day while web surfing I found Urban Legends.Com. and found out how many of those were fake. (Like arrowheads). There are some true ones out there, but many times they have been twisted. Received one last week on the calico white tail buck, shot in Tennessee. There is a calico white tail, which is a genetic abnormallity, like an albino. But this one was killed in East Tx. If ya'll received one of those emails, check it out first, might save you some embarrassment when you find out it's false, before you forward it.
Thanks

Re: Save Somebody Some Embarrassment

I'll be keeping your info in mind in the future Te, but I just have a hard time
believing that anything would be allowed on the WORLD Wide Web that is not true and correct. "They"
just wouldnt allow it !

Re: Save Somebody Some Embarrassment

Yep SH, I get at least one a week, some new story meant to politically rile you up, that you're suppossed to forward on, or some animal of incredible size that has eatten some oil field hand in Botswani. These come from friends that should know better. I know I can't stopped other people from sending that crap out, but I double delete it when I get it. Come on guys, that 60' shark jumping out of the water to get the guy on the helicopter, sheesh. Received that one three or four times.

try snopes, it's the best at debunking

snopes.com is the best

Re: try snopes, it's the best at debunking

Kinda think they're affiliated, clicked on some of the links on one and it takes you to the other, and vice versa. Still both good sites to check out some of the wild stories that come through via e-mail. Hate being made a fool of by friends, that's why I got married. .
wife is always telling everybody that my fishing stories are slightly exagerated.
