INTERNET RUMORS<\/p>\n

Beware of the Internet rumor,
\nSo like a cat with nine lives,
\nEven though you try to kill it,
\nYet that vile thing survives.<\/p>\n

Once it’s let loose out there,
\nIt spreads just like a disease,
\nAnd try hard as you may like,
\nYou cannot stop it with ease.<\/p>\n

\nTake some time to think it out,
\nFor rumors are like boomerangs,
\nThey come back at you no doubt.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
