Warning: 0 hockey content (but I could not resist) then enjoy this reprint of the "Good Times" virus that was another popular hoax virus... The latest breaking news on the GOODTIMES virus: It turns out that this so-called hoax virus is very dangerous after all. Goodtimes will re-write your hard drive. Not only that, it will scramble any disks that are even close to your computer. It will recalibrate your refrigerator's coolness setting so all your ice cream goes melty. It will demagnetize the strips on all your credit cards, screw up the tracking on your VCR and use subspace field harmonics to scratch any CDs you try to play. It will give your ex-girlfriend your new phone number. It will mix Kool-aid into your fishtank. It will drink all your beer and leave dirty socks on the coffee table when company comes over. It will put a dead kitten in the back pocket of your good suit pants and hide your car keys when you are late for work. Goodtimes will make you fall in love with a penguin. It will give you nightmares about circus midgets. It will pour sugar in your gas tank and shave off both your eyebrows while dating your girlfriend behind your back and billing the dinner and hotel room to your Discover card.It will seduce your grandmother. It does not matter if she is dead, such is the power of Goodtimes, it reaches out beyond the grave to sully those things we hold most dear. It moves your car randomly around parking lots so you can't find it. It will kick your dog. It will leave libidinous messages on your boss's voice mail in your voice! It is insidious and subtle. It is dangerous and terrifying to behold. It is also a rather interesting shade of mauve. Goodtimes will give you Dutch Elm disease. It will leave the toilet seat up. It will make a batch of Methamphetamine in your bathtub and then leave bacon cooking on the stove while it goes out to chase gradeschoolers with your new snowblower. ______________________________ Reply Separator _________________________________ Subject: Fwd: Virus Alert Author: [log in to unmask] at Internet-USA Date: 6/8/98 5:53 PM -------------------------Forwarded------------------------ From: [log in to unmask] at Internet-USA To: [log in to unmask] at Internet-USA To: [log in to unmask] at Internet-USA To: [log in to unmask] at Internet-USA To: [log in to unmask] at Internet-USA To: [log in to unmask] at Internet-USA To: [log in to unmask] at Internet-USA To: [log in to unmask] at Internet-USA To: [log in to unmask] at Internet-USA To: [log in to unmask] at Internet-USA To: [log in to unmask] at Internet-USA To: [log in to unmask] at Internet-USA To: [log in to unmask] at Internet-USA To: [log in to unmask] at Internet-USA To: [log in to unmask] at Internet-USA To: [log in to unmask] at Internet-USA To: [log in to unmask] at Internet-USA To: [log in to unmask] at Internet-USA To: [log in to unmask] at Internet-USA To: [log in to unmask] at Internet-USA To: [log in to unmask] at Internet-USA To: [log in to unmask] at Internet-USA To: [log in to unmask] at Internet-USA To: [log in to unmask] at Internet-USA To: [log in to unmask] at Internet-USA Subject: Virus Alert >To: [log in to unmask] > >>Subject: Virus Alert > >> > >> > >> This is a new twist.
