giantcat1.jpgIf you haven't spent any quality time surfing Snopes.com, I highly recommend it. The Web site is devoted to busting/proving popular myths and revealing e-mail hoaxes for what they are. Check their top 25 legends to get find out which of these statements are the real deal.

1. Buying gas in the morning before temperatures rise will save you money.
2. The artificial sweetener Aspartame causes cancer, brain tumors, and multiple sclerosis.
3. April 25, 2008 is a "day of silence" to protest harassment of gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgendered people.
4. You will be paid for forwarding an e-mail from Bill Gates, Microsoft and AOL because you are helping them test a new e-mail system.
5. Jay Leno wrote an essay urging Americans to stay positive.

If you're too lazy to check the site click here for the answers.

1. Not completely false but the tips will result in modest savings, at best.
2. False
3. True
