This is obviously a hoax. Look at the article date. Unless...news travels slowly because of Windows. Lol

This is b.s.
the way this works is that your browser only pays attention to everything after the @. So the web address you sre visiting is verything after that. This is the same gag that was used for the emeinem death and for the story on lars getting shot in the nutz.

It's a Jeep thing you wouldn't understand.

I liked the "CNN" story about Bill Gates' gay orgies better.

I heard Billy got shot while at a gay orgie.

[Jvaguy]

naa he shot someone at the orgy

[jimmr13]

you had me ther for like a second ! LOL

------------------
If all else fails read the directions !

[BreakWindows]

l've seen 2 dozen of these already....you'd think CNN would fix their server. The story is actually from 209.61.162.98
l agree though...the gay orgy, the 'Gates arrested for murdering Richard Stallman' and 'Gates Pregnant With Bat-Child' were much cooler


For future referance, you can change the address to a hex address so it isn't so obvious

[Who Me]

It can't be true. I must be in his will the number of times I've written to him and nobodys contacted me yet!

With Bill Gates, you never know what's true and not. He said that Win98 was suppose to be stable...ha. I'd belive the bat-child story over the stability issues in a Microsoft OS.

------------------
I wish they had Doom for OS/400...that would be some treat!

[underfunded]

It's funny how rampant these hoaxes are and that people fall for them every time. actually, it's not funny, it's quite sad that the public just doesn't understand it.

The one about Lars getting shot in the balls is pretty damn funny though.

[cheezmonkey]

I'd have believed it, if it wasn't for the gratuitous use of the word "wound" and the fact that someone who plotted to kill Gates would be so unprepared for escape.

And the poor use of English...

No girl deserves my tears, and the one who does will never make me cry.

I don't trust anything I read on the internet unless it comes directly from a news link, and even then...
It's kinda hard to even trust the news when they have blunders like the "Bob Hope dead at XX" fiasco.
For those that don't remember, the United Press "accidentally" let their story for Bob Hope's death (one that they have prepared for most celebs incase they die) out to a large number of papers, who ran the story. It was even on the news. Suddenly, nearly every paper, and TV station had to issue a retraction.

He is hanging with Elvis, 2Pac, Biggie Smalls & Jim Morrison in Cuba

[WebHead]

That's a pretty cool joke. Next time you go to a computer store, set that one as the homepage on the internet browser so that all the customers will see it when they launch the browser.
