Both of these are old and well-known Urban Legends, and if this actually
came from a reputable source, THEY NEED TO BE INFORMED.
When anything like this is received, check http://www.urbanlegends.com/
and
http://www.snopes.com/spoons/ to get the truth, and forward it BACK to
whoever was gullible enough to send it to you. Yes, the "Bubbleboy" virus
is real, but the "Supermodels' ova auction online" and all the other crap
is NOT (yes, the egg auction was also a hoax - to promote a porno site).
