Book Description

Publication Date: September 23, 2003

PASS THIS ALONG TO SOMEONE YOU CARE ABOUT! Creepy criminals in the back seat of your station wagon, gangsters flashing their headlights, hypodermic needles on the movie theatre seats ... are you safe to leave your house? Lock the doors, play it safe, and check your emails ... but be wary of the computer viruses out there, ready to destroy your life with the click of the mouse! Why go to a boring job? Stay home and watch the postman deliver THOUSANDS of dollars from PROVEN wealth methods that work! But don’t use that big money to order a taco or fried chicken ... don’t you know what that meat REALLY is? And what about the bugs in your food? Or rat urine touching your beverage can? Disgusting! Outrageous! Unbelievable! Or is it? Could any of the internet urban legends that you’ve heard about possibly be TRUE?

5.0 out of 5 stars The Perfect Mix, December 5, 2003

J. (Calgary, Alberta Canada) - See all my reviews

This review is from: This is Not a Hoax: Urban Legends on the Internet (Paperback)

This book is a perfect mix of creepiness and humor. Those things that you're always afraid to ask or mention because you might look too dumb are explained with a perfect mix of humor and subtle sarcasm. I couldn't put it down, and I don't read much!
