Internet for Dummies, Wednesday 11/8, 3rd Period

There were several beakers on Abby's desk and she was pacing in front of them, her lab coat looking a little worse for wear.

"Morning, guys. I hope you enjoyed your week off and got lots of emailing done. Since next week we're going to be using chatrooms and instant messengers, we need to bone up on our netspeak." Abby gave a brief rundown of why internet slang was invented and then went to the board to write down a few of the basics. "You've got your BRB which means 'be right back' and your LOL which stands for laughing out loud. What are some of the ones you can think of?"

After the list was expanded, Abby nodded to the students. "Alright, I want you guys to write those down because you'll be using them next week in class. Now for a fun activity, we're going to have dramatic spam readings. You've had your email accounts long enough to get those weirdly poetic emails that don't make a lot of sense. But I think they're fun to read. Everyone who reads will get a chance to try one of my new Caf-Pow flavors; pumpkin spice or cranberry."

Abby waved a hand at the beakers and wrinkled her nose, so far none of them tasted good, but it's not as if it would hurt the kids.

Ray picked out a piece of spam.

"If you are a time traveler or alien disguised as human and or have the technology to travel physically through time I need your help! My life has been severely tampered with and cursed!! I have suffered tremendously and am now dying! I need to be able to: Travel back in time. Rewind my life including my age back to 4. Be able to remember what I know now so that I can prevent my life from being tampered with again after I go back. I am in very great danger and need this immediately! I am aware that there are many types of time travel, and that humans do not do well through certain types.

I need as close to temporal reversion as possible, as safely as possible. To be able to rewind the hands of time in such a way that the universe of now will cease to exist.

I know that there are some very powerful people out there with alien or government equipment capable of doing just that.

If you can help me I will pay for your teleport or trip down here, Along with hotel stay, food and all expenses. I will pay top dollar for the equipment. Proof must be provided.

Also if you are one of the very few beings with the ability to edit the universe PLEASE REPLY!!!

Only if you have this technology and can help me please send me a (SEPARATE) email to:

Please do not reply if your an evil alien!

Thanks"

Ray just boggled.
