I"ve been known to do that to plenty of folks who think I want all
those binaries, pictures of this, pictures of that, pdf files I can't read,
etc. THe same joke I've seen a hundred times before, and the forwarding
list just gets longer.

I used to have a nice little text file which a friend of mine penned for a
networking class on netiquette. He reminded folks that relatives and
friends would actually like to hear from you in a personal way, not just
endless forwarded jokes.

THat's your best course of action imho.

Regards,
           Richard
