Thanks for the warning!

I just want to thank all of you for your educational e-mails over the past year. I am totally screwed up now and have little chance of recovery. .....

I no longer open a public bathroom door without using a paper towel or have them put lemon slices in my ice water without worrying about the bacteria on the lemon peel.

I can't use the remote in a hotel room because I don't know what the last person was doing while flipping through the adult movie channels

I can't sit down on the hotel bedspread because I can only imagine what has happened on it since it was last washed.

I have trouble shaking hands with someone who has been driving because the number one pastime while driving alone is picking ones nose (although cell phone usage may be taking the number one spot).

Eating a little snack sends me on a guilt trip because I can only imagine how many gallons of trans fats I have consumed over the years.

I can't touch any woman's purse for fear she has placed it on the floor of a public bathroom.

I MUST SEND MY SPECIAL THANKS to whoever sent me the one about poop in the glue on envelopes because I now have to use a wet sponge with every envelope that needs sealing.

ALSO, now I have to scrub the top of every can I open for the same reason.

I no longer have any savings because I gave it to a sick girl ( Penny Brown ) who is about to die in the hospital for the 1,387,258th time.

I no longer have any money at all, but that will change once I receive the $15,000 that Bill Gates/Microsoft and AOL are sending me for participating in their special e-mail program.

I no longer worry about my soul because I have 363,214 angels looking out for me, and St. Theresa's Novena has granted my every wish.

I no longer eat KFC because their chickens are actually horrible mutant freaks with no eyes or feathers.

I no longer use c ancer-causing deodorants even though I smell like a water buffalo on a hot day.

THANKS TO YOU I have learned that my prayers only get answered if I forward an e-mail to seven of my friends and make a wish within five minutes.

BECAUSE OF YOUR CONCERN, I no longer drink Coca Cola because it can remove toilet stains.

I no longer can buy gasoline without taking someone along to watch the car so a serial killer won't crawl in my back seat when I'm pumping gas .

I no longer drink Pepsi or Dr. Pepper since the people who make these products are atheists who refuse to put 'Under God' on their cans.

I no longer use Saran Wrap in the microwave because it causes cancer.

AND THANKS FOR LETTING ME KNOW I can't boil a cup of water in the microwave anymore because it will blow up in my face... disfiguring me for life.

I no longer check the coin return on pay phones because I could be pricked with a needle infected with AIDS.

I no longer go to shopping malls because someone will drug me with a perfume sample and rob me.

I no longer receive packages from UPS or Fed Ex since they are actually Al Qaeda in disguise.

I no longer shop at Target since they are French and don't support our American troops or the Salvation Army.

I no longer answer the phone because someone will ask me to dial a number for which I will get a phone bill with calls to Jamaica , Uganda , Singapore , and Uzbekistan .

I no longer buy expensive cookies from Neiman Marcus since I now have their recipe.

THANKS TO YOU I can't use anyone's toilet but mine because a big brown African spider is lurking under the seat to cause me instant death when it bites my butt.

AND THANKS TO YOUR GREAT ADVICE I can't ever pick up $5.00 dropped in the parking lot because it probably was placed there by a sex molester waiting underneath my car to grab my leg.

I can no longer drive my car because I can't buy gas from certain gas companies!

I can't do any gardening because I'm afraid I'll get bitten by the brown recluse and my hand will fall off.

If you don't send this e-mail to at least 144,000 people in the next 70 minutes, a large dove with diarrhea will land on your head at 5:00 p.m. tomorrow afternoon and the fleas from 12 camels will infest your back, causing you to grow a hairy hump. I know this will occur because it actually happened to a friend of my next door neighbor's ex-mother-in-law's second husband's cousin's beautician . .

(thanks to high school buddy, Jan Custode, for sending this e-mail to me this morning )

LMAO! I can’t tell you how many of those things I have heard from my father while growing up… especially the one aboutthe hotel bedspread and the one about using a paper towel to open up a public bathroom door! LOL! Thanks for the good laugh.

Hugs!

Love this, Mimi. Thanks for the great laugh!

I see that you mentioned the lemons in restaurants and diners? Evidently, they really are covered with bacteria (fecal matter, etc.) and should be avoided…like the plague. Seriously…no joke here! :)

Oh, so you know about Tar-jhay (Target) too. Did you also know that Jaque in zee Box is also French? This is absolutely hysterical. What a great first laugh for the new year. Thanks! Andrea

Hey Susan, your father was right! On a Law & Order episode, the lab said there were 165 different sperm samples on the bedspread. eeeeewww! God only knows what else, like how often do they wash them? Not only the bathroom doors, but on handles of shopping carts, and the worst offender - the bank machines, and the door handles of every public building. Don’t forget the elevator buttons too…….

Hey Morningstar,
thanks for that link about lemons, I think the the citric acid will kill something, so I will stick with my lemon and lime slices.
And the wrapped mints are ok. Remember(years ago) those huge bowls of white Scotch mints that used to be located next to the cash register? That came to halt really fast after the TV investigative report found that almost all of them were urine covered. Patrons evidently didn’t wash their hand after a trip to the bathroom, and just dug into the bowl for handful as they left the restaurant. Eeeeewwww!
