No problem. I only knew because I had gotten emails from family. They always send them to me and I go check them out, because they've already sent them to the rest of my family. Every once in a while, they get one that's true, so I guess it's worth it.

But it's always a good idea to check this stuff on snopes.com when you can.

The first time I saw this it almost fooled me too.
