Here's another e-mail, this is false, but another of my nightmares.....
Shannon could hear the footsteps behind her as she walked toward home. ... The man smiled. "I know I told you all that... but it wasn't true. You see, Shannon, there are people on line who pretend to be kids; I was one of them. But while others do it to find kids and hurt them, I belong to a group of parents who do it to protect kids from predators.
ohana thanks for posting this... I had it on my old computer and lost it in a crash. I used to make Kelley read this every few months, and I don't know how many copies I've e-mailed to parents and kids I knew... although this is particular story is supposedly an urban legend, there really are "Internet Angels" out there who do just what this story is about.
When That Person on That Other Thread responded to [color=9900CC]ob[/color], this story is the first thing I thought of... predator. That one retort he made after her post sent me over the edge. I'm sorry everyone didn't get to see us getting in to the fray to defend our friends, but I'm glad that post is gone.
Kelley thinks I am an overzealous, overprotective ridiculous mom because the only internet connection in the house is in the kitchen, but that's where it will remain until my children are grown. I am constantly looking over her shoulder and asking who are you talking to ? Who is that? How do you know her/him? I just don't think you can be too careful.
Must get off soapbox ... must get off soapbox...

Brad hunkahunka Pitt vs. Orlando Bloom ... gotta side with [color=FF0033]cadburysmom[/color] on that one. <a href='http://www.smileycentral.com/?partner=ZSzeb008' target='_blank'><img src='http://smileys.smileycentral.com/cat/10/10_3_2.gif' alt='Drooling' border=0></a> (that's drool, not spit!) Her Scottish lad isn't bad either... ha... reminds me that my DFIL went to DH's brother's wedding in full Black Watch regalia with kilt, and really upstaged the bride. I don't think she's ever forgiven him!!!
[color=339900]ibouncetoo[/color], is it you who is feeling sickly still? PD laced with vitamin C and echinacea to you (and anyone else who might need it) followed by a jigger of Jack in the Black mixed with a bearhead of honey. <a href='http://www.smileycentral.com/?partner=ZSzeb008' target='_blank'><img src='http://smileys.smileycentral.com/cat/10/10_7_6.gif' alt='Blurry Drunk' border=0></a>
