Yeah, I got the same message, but my Norton AntiVirus deleted the attachments while checking my mail. Thanks for the warning, friends.

Now if only someone would have warned me about the last two minutes of last night's Buffy...

"Once, years ago, I saved the life of a wise old priest. 
Grateful, he made a gift to me of these few precious words:
If you find yourself on a cliffside, trapped, 
with a hungry tiger waiting above 
and a hungry tiger waiting below, 
and by chance you spy a single strawberry 
growing from the cliffside...
pluck the strawberry...
and bite into it...
and taste it."
