how do I start my own urban legend?
I was thinking I should start a urban legend.
Something like the "Sun is running out of fuel so we all need to stock up on wood to stay warn when it goes out". What do you think? Who do I send it to first? Evil grin Mark -- I didn't know BMW made cars until I passed one. |

You need to assure your audience that this information came from your mother's cousin's adopted son who is dating a girl whose great aunt works for the assistant of a famous astronomer - who is the source of the story. Authentication of this nature is essential to a genuine Urban Legend. Eugene L Griessel I sometimes think that God in creating man somewhat overestimated his ability. |

Come on, the world is about to end, you know it, and all you think about is playing jokes on your fellow men. Crawl from under your rock and start working with us. Timber!!!!! |

Evil grin Mark You could start by issuing a denial: "The world's top experts all denied today that there is any truth in the rumour that the sun is running out of fuel and that the human race will have to rely on stocks of wood to provide heating in the future". "In an unrelated move, the price of forested land has increased 30% in the past 6 months" should do it :-))) (Thinking about it, you could get a few exra laughs by saying that we'll have to rely on moonlight instead of sunlight) Pete -- .................................................. ......................... .. never trust a man who, when left alone ......
