A good friend of my sister's son's girlfriend's cousin knows this guy whose neighbor was home recovering from having been served a rat in his bucket of Kentucky Fried Chicken. So anyway, one day he went to sleep and when he awoke he was in his bathtub and it was full of ice and he was sore all over. When he got out of the tub he realized that HIS KIDNEYS HAD BEEN STOLEN and he saw a note on his mirror that said "Call 911!"

But he was afraid to use his phone because it was connected to his computer, and there was a virus on his computer that would destroy his hard drive if he opened an e-mail entitled "GOOD TIMES".

He knew it wasn't a hoax because he himself was a computer programmer who was working on software to save us from Armageddon when the year 2000 rolls around. His program will prevent a global disaster in which all the computers get together and distribute the $250 MRS. FIELD'S COOKIE RECIPE under the leadership of Bill Gates.

(It's true-I read it all last week in a mass e-mail from BILL GATES HIMSELF, who was also promising me a free Disney World vacation and $5,000 if I would just forward the e-mail to everyone I know.  Can you believe it? I was selected to take part in a super-secret test of an e-mail tracking system.  I just made my airline reservations!)

Anyway, the poor guy then tried to call 911 from a pay phone to report his missing kidneys, but when he reached into the coin-return slot he got jabbed with an HIV-infected needle around which was wrapped a note that said, "Welcome to the world of AIDS."

Luckily he was only a few blocks from the hospital. It's the one where that little boy who is dying of cancer is -- the one whose last wish is for everyone in the world to send him an e-mail and the American Cancer Society has agreed to pay him a nickel for every e-mail he receives. I sent him two e-mails.  One of them was a bunch of x's and o's in the shape of an angel (if you get it and forward it to 20 people you will have good luck, but only 10 people and you will only have OK luck and if you send it to less than 10 people you will have BAD LUCK FOR SEVEN YEARS).

So he tried to drive himself to the hospital, but on the way he noticed another car driving along without its lights on. To be helpful, he flashed his lights at him and was promptly shot as part of a gang initiation.

By the way, did you know that the Y1K problem caused the dark ages?
