Old May 28th, 2003, 09:07 PM        Another obnoxious email forward from my grandmother
It's right about one thing, I couldn't believe what I was looking at when I opened this email.

Subject: Do Not Buy This Stamp

Do Not buy this Stamp


This one is impossible to believe. Scroll down for the text. If there is one thing you forward today.....let it be this.

REMEMBER the MUSLIM bombing of PanAm Flight 103!

REMEMBER the MUSLIM bombing of the World Trade Center in 1993!

REMEMBER the MUSLIM bombing of the Marine barracks in Lebanon!

REMEMBER the MUSLIM bombing of the military barracks in Saudi Arabia!

REMEMBER the MUSLIM bombing of the American Embassies in Africa!

REMEMBER the MUSLIM bombing of the USS COLE!

REMEMBER the MUSLIM attack on the Twin Towers on 9/11/2001!

REMEMBER all the AMERICAN lives that were lost in those vicious MUSLIM attacks!

Now the United States Postal Service REMEMBERS and HONORS the EID MUSLIM holiday season with a commemorative first class holiday postage stamp.

REMEMBER to adamantly and vocally BOYCOTT this stamp when purchasing your stamps at the post office. To use this stamp would be a slap in the face to all those AMERICANS who died at the hands of those whom this stamp honors.

REMEMBER to pass this along to every patriotic AMERICAN you know



I replied to the huge list of people she sent it to with a simple "This is a really bad joke, right?"

I wanted to say SOOOOOO much more, this thing really pissed me off. But it's my grandmother. And half my other extended relatives are on this mailing list too, but I don't know exactly which email addresses belong to who.

What pisses me off the most is that I have to bite my tongue and restrain myself no matter HOW horribly ignorant or offensive her email forwards get. Because it's my grandmother. And my parents will never let me hear the end of it if I really go off like I want to.
