A version of this arrived in my inbox today. I’m putting it here to see if it’ll get picked up by any of my FaceBook contacts for a little bit of fun. Also – cousins – I’m looking at you…. 
Welcome to the 2009 edition of getting to know your Friends. Press
‘FORWARD’ then change all the answers so they apply to you, and then send
this to your friends including the person who sent it to you.
The theory is that you will learn a lot of little things about your
friends that you might not have known!
