Subject: Virus Alert!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

There is a new virus going around, called "work." If you receive any
sort of "work" at all, whether via email, internet or simply handed to
you by a colleague...DO NOT OPEN IT.
This has been circulating around our building for months and those
who have been tempted to open "work" or even look at "work" have found
that their social life is deleted and their brain ceases to function
properly. If you do encounter "work" via email or are faced with any
"work" at all, then to purge the virus, send an email to your boss
with the words "I've had enough of your crap... I'm off to the pub."
The "work" should automatically be forgotten by your brain. If you
receive "work" in paper-document form, simply lift the document and
drag the "work" to your garbage can. Put on your hat and coat and skip
to the nearest bar with two friends and order three pints of beer (or
rum punch). After repeating this action 14 times, you will find that
"work" will no longer be of any relevance to you and that "Scooby Doo"
was the greatest cartoon ever. Send this message to everyone in your
address book. If you do NOT have anyone in your address book, then I'm
afraid the "work" virus has already corrupted your life.
