Post by: ChR0NiC on August 13, 2004, 11:33 PM
I was told by my friend today that Bill Gates was murdered like 3 years ago, is this true? He showed me this link (http://mirrors.meepzorp.com/bill-gates-murder/)

I don't believe it but does anybody know anything about it.

Generally if you don't hear about it on the news it didn't happen, don't trust internet sites to give you the correct news, often they are just looking for hits.
