Where the Hell is Matt?

I've been aware of this guy Matt and his world travel videos. I particularly liked this one he just recently released. It made me smile.

Please don't be a lemming...

Tis the season for the U.S. Presidential elections! And we all know what that means. Tons of erroneous and fabricated emails passed mindlessly through the tubes.

Please don't forward them to other people, especially to me. Those emails are always crap; blatant fabricated lies or half-truths about one candidate or the other. I don't want to hear about Barack Obama being a closet terrorist or that John McCain ate the head off a baby kitten. I really don't want to hear it. Cause it's just not true.

If you believe crap in these emails, you're probably the ones that also believe the cousin of the deposed king of Nigeria needs your help. If you want to know the truth about a candidate, believing email threads is hardly the way to go.

Instead, put forth some effort and spend time learning about each candidate and what their views are by watching the debates, reading their websites, etc.

But please don't forward propagandistic emails. You're just perpetuating the problem.
