If you've been online more than one day, you've seen spam that promises good things just for clicking.  Free trip to Disney!  Free car! Free money!

This one is different--you don't get a free mammogram for one measly click, and it is real.

Even Snopes, the gold standard of online truth-telling, says so!

Click today, tomorrow, and every day!

And if you're out of date on your own mammogram schedule now would be a good time to make an appointment for yourself.

Oh goodie!  Someone to help me keep this up at the top!

I'm probably out until tomorrow, as every member of this forum has hit it today, right?

Right?

Right.

As you're probably aware, the newer machines are far more efficient now with sharper images to make detection easier.

They haven't done anything about the gosh-awful squeezing though. (sigh)  Still, it's a small price (and really, little dis-comfort) to pay for peace of mind.

My sister did the 3-day 2 years in a row.  I'll be sharing this with her.

"clickety clickety day"

My tongue is having so much fun saying that phrase!

Sounds almost the same in German: ein klickender klickender Tag.

Off to send the link to friends *s*

a clickety day wishes
