Internet Cleanup Day

I wonder how many AOLer's will mass mail it to ppl in their address book.

This also reminds me a phone hoax; can't remember the whole thing, but it went something like:
Put a plastic bag around your phone, because the phone company would be blowing the lines out, since they had gotten so dirty...

Pretty funny.

I actually remember seeing something like this years ago. Back in the early 90's. The school I was attening just was actually contemplating shutting down their servers for the day.

I remember that phone hoax also. It was all about how the lines had gotten dirty which cause static on some phones, so they were going to blow the lines out. I actually knew people that disconnected their phones, and put the end of the wire in the trash can, so that it would be blown directly in the trash, and they wouldn't have any clean up to do....

Blow out the phone lines, never heard it, that's hysterical though.

I remember seeing this hoax before. I read it to make sure it was the same one. Hehe...but it is an interesting thought. Imagine all the unmaitained junk there is on the internt. Wouldn't it be nice if it were all "washed" away?

heh.. I decided to bump up my old thread to add something that will help in cleaning up the internet.. Of course, before we can clean the internet properly, we'll have to safely shut it down..

and so, in that regard.. I bring you this link

Just click on the little red button and all will be fine..

on a side note.. as I had posted this before we had a tech humor forum..
