About me: I might be insane. I say that because at the moment everything in my life seems normal, even a little sedate. I'm beginning to wonder when the other shoe is going to drop.
I like the drama of everyday life. I work in the mall, and love what I do, although I wish I could do it outside of the mall. I firmly believe that everyone has something in common, and I love meeting people and trying to find that something. I'm almost always up for new adventures, seeing new places and trying new things.

The money quote: "There are all kinds of ways to get distracted these days," said police spokeswoman Kerry Delf. "We don't recommend any of them while you're driving."

Dearest Laocoon :
I hate to break to you, but this is one of the oldest hoaxes there is.
I've seen variants on this warning come through on other listservs, one involving some kind of fruit that was supposed to kill the people who ate it and one having to do with something called the "Midas Touch."
Here are a few tipoffs that this is a hoax:
1) This "Forward this message to everyone you know" stuff. If it were really meant as a warning about the Greek army, why tell anyone to post it to the Phonecians, Sumerians, and Cretans?
2) Use of exclamation points. Always a giveaway.
3) It's signed "from Poseidon." Granted he's had his problems with Odysseus but he's one of their guys, isn't he? Besides, the lack of a real header with a detailed address makes me suspicious.
