Today, I received no less than two chain letters by e-mail.  One threatened me with horrible death and the loss of someone I love, whilst embodying a poem about lost time and friendships and then they die and you can't see them again!???  Good grief.  Not surprising if you lose friends after sending them threatening chain mail though is it?  Seemingly, however, if I don't send it to them they're all going to die anyway!

The other was admittedly quite funny and I have no problem sending it off to others as it contained no threats of any kind.  However, what I will absolutely NOT do is send to my friends e-mails threatening death of any variety.  WTF is all that about?  How really evil and nasty is that?  Furthermore, what's the point of it all?  Strange way of getting published if you ask me!  Needless to say I binned it but thought about others who might be intimidated by this.  I mean, some people must, mustn't they, otherwise chain letters would never be perpetuated?  I think it's horrible, vile and just plain childish.  If I could only find out who originated the e-mail I would send them a horrible letter right back.  It's ,made me really angry and frustrated that I can't 'get at them'.  Ah but then, that would make me no better than them.  Wonder if they could be reported/sued for threatening behaviour?  Maybe chain letters should be criminalised, particularly if they contain threats of your imminent death or the death of those close to you!

Nasty, nasty, nastiness!  Again I say...ggggrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!!
