Men have their history based on communication. At first, before there was verbal
language, men communicated using mimes and pictures. When verbal language began to be
developed, it was only oral. And it was only a few centuries ago that words began to be written.
However, the evolution of means of communication did not stop there. New inventions
came to improve it more and more. Technology is a good example of this evolution. When
computers and the Internet were invented, the communication between a single man and the
rest of the world was enormously facilitated. The e-mail, for example, is a very fast way of
sending and receiving messages virtually.
E-mails were used for the first time in 1971, only by the military service and by the
American Defense Department with the objective of developing the ARPANET – Advanced
Research Projects Agency Network.
Today, the Internet has expanded so much that it is practically impossible to block people
from using it, or living without it, specially in relation to the facilities of the e-mail. Here in Brazil,
the Internet started being used in 1988. And e-mails are used by inumerous people with
different purposes. In Brazil, and all around the world, the e-mail address is now part of
everyone’s personal information, required everywhere we go.

Subject: Distracted.Sorry!!
Allyson, my Love
This short note is to say “I’m sorry”. U know I love U, I adore U
and I can´t imagine my days and nights without U.
You know I always pay attention to your moves, you know that
every time I look at you, every time you blink or , I find you
more and more beautiful. Maybe that’s why I didn’t notice you’d
changed your hair style.
Please forgive me. Don’t doubt me when I say I noticed you
were looking different, that something in you had changed for
the better, impossible as that may be because I think you’re
perfect. Yet, just once glance was not enough for me to realize
you were looking different.
I hope U will not be mad at me for too long, because I miss U
like crazy and I’m dying to kiss your new hair do.
Accept the apologies of yours distracted
Love,
Billy

Billy,
sometimes, I have the impression YOU don’t believe in the things you say. Well, this is a characteristic that doesn’t match my personality and the way I look upon the world,so, it’s all over between us.I regret it took me so long to realize how false you were and how deceived your actions were. I regret having wasted so much of my time believing in your crazy stories. I regret having trusted you with my secrets, my house and my intimacies. So, I hope you’ve learned your lesson; your childish behavior, has just ruined the chances of a relationship with someone who actually loved you.I hope you find your way!
Bye
Allyson

Subject: !IMPORTANT! Infected Bananas
Must Read, Very important! Life or Death. Please pass on to your Friends & family. Dear friends, Please forward this to everyone you care about!The report has been validated from the CDC (Centers for Disease Control) in Atlanta. Warning: Several shipments of bananas from Costa Rica have been infected with narcotizing fasciltis, otherwise known as flesh eating bacteria. Recently this disease has decimated the monkey population in Costa Rica. We are just now learning that the disease has been able to graft itself to the skin of fruits in the region, most notably the banana, which is Costa Rica's largest export. Until this finding scientists were not sure how the infection was being transmitted. It is advised not to purchase bananas for the next three weeks as this is the period of time for which bananas that have been shipped to the US with the possibility of carrying this disease. If you have eaten a banana in the last 2-3 days and come down with a fever followed by a skin infection, SEEK MEDICAL ATTENTION! The skin infection from Narcotizing Fasciltis is very painful and eats two to three centimeters of flesh per hour. Amputation is likely, death is possible. If you are more than an hour from a medical center, burning the flesh ahead of the infected area is advised to help slow the spread of the infection. The FDA has been reluctant to issue a country wide warning because of fear of nationwide panic. They have secretly admitted that they feel upwards of 15,000 Americans will be affected by this, but that these are acceptable numbers. Please forward this to as many people as you care about as we do not feel 15,000 people is an acceptable number.
