Alex: oops...I almost forgot. Time for my Titanic support group! Popparama? Come read this post to my Titanic group. Mike: Uh...okay... (reading): I have something to share. I, too, know the pain of a lost love. I was a nurse, and he was an aviator. We were flying a rescue mission in the Himalayas when our plan lost power. He gave me a parachute, kissed me, and opened the hatch. Never give up, he shouted as I went out. I didn't know he'd given me the only parachute. Alex: What do you think, poppy? Mike: Um...well, I think you have to be careful, sweetheart...People on the net aren't always what they seem. They can sometimes play on your sympathies. Whoever wrote this could have made it all up. Alex: Well of course I made it up! I just want you to proof it! Mike: Oh...um...it's fine.
