Got some spam this morning. From a friend. Sort of like friendly fire. Whenever I get one of these near urban legends, I always respond with links to web reference resources. Sigh.

This time it was some blather about free $50.00 gift certificates from Applebees. A quick search in Google turned up the low-down. What always amazes me about something like this, is how the immediacy of email seems to short-circuit critical thinking skills. I'd be amused if it weren't so sad. (I do give Applebees credit though, they have a popup that exposes the hoax.)

On the other hand, Google has a new Dilbert-tie-in logo up this week. Cool.
