I highly suggest checking out snopes.com before you pass on some of the forwards in your inbox. When I receive forwards that can be checked such as amber alerts, animal attack claims, and alien sightings in Nebraska by a housewife, I always go directly to snopes before passing those emails on to other friends. Snopes will actually tell you if the email is true or false and where it originates from. Our inboxes are full enough of junk mail without forwarding false information for our friends to waste time reading. If you love to know everything about everything then you will probably end up looking up much more than what you actually came to find.
