Twighlight Zone Episode.

The story you told may predate it, but there was an old Twilight Zone episode that went essentially the same way. The man was saved from accidentally going to hell by not being willing to leave his dog behind. In that version though the old man was coon hunting when he and the dog both drowned at the same time.

As for the merits of those who only use email to forward jokes, urban legends, etc, I tend to disagree a bit with your assessment. Generally speaking, I'm careful not to give these folks my primary email address, and I typically don't read what they send. I know they mean well, but I don't have time for the nonsense. I do have one exception which is a friend who tends to do at least some filtering and therefore the jokes are more often than not funny.

But for the chain letter and misinformation crowd, what's the use? Unlike your assertion, they really aren't thinking of me. They just have my email in their standard list they shove junk out to.

Don't get me wrong. Many of these folks are people I really like. I just don't want to get emails from them.
