After she cut off the end of the ham, she placed it in a pan for baking. Her friend asked her,"Why did you cut off the end of the ham"? And she replied "I really don't know but my mother always did, so I thought you were supposed to." Later when talking to her mother she asked her why she cut off the end of the ham before baking it, and her mother replied,"I really don't know, but that's the way my mom always did it." A few weeks later while visiting her grandmother, the young woman asked, "Grandma, why is it that you cut off the end of a ham before you bake it?" Her grandmother replied ,"Well dear, otherwise it would never fit into my baking pan." ____________________________________________________ An INTERNATIONAL BONEHEAD AWARD has been earned by Joshua Davidson of Visalia, Alexander Ceballos of Porterville, Jacob Enriquez of Tulare, Joshua Uribe of Goshen, Alfredo Gaona of Visalia, California, USA 5 arrested in connection to Tulare County crime spree that turned deadly Five men are in custody after being connected to a violent crime spree in the South Valley. Three of those five are also facing charges for the murder of a man near Ivanhoe. Joshua Davidson of Visalia, Alexander Ceballos of Porterville, and Jacob Enriquez of Tulare are accused of killing 19-year old Ivan Ortiz of Delano. On Monday night at about 11:30, Tulare County Sheriff's deputies found Ortiz shot to death outside a home on Road 156 near Avenue 320. Then on Wednesday, detectives learned that the three men, along with Joshua Uribe of Goshen and Alfredo Gaona of Visalia, also went on a crime spree this past Monday night. The five men started in Ivanhoe, where they committed a strong-armed robbery on a victim sitting in his car. Then they drove to Woodlake, where a victim reported the men pulled out a gun. From there, they moved to another area of Woodlake, where they carjacked someone at gunpoint. Deputies tracked Uribe and Gaona down in the stolen truck and arrested them for the carjacking and armed robbery. While Uribe and Gaona were being arrested, deputies were dispatched to Ivanhoe for the murder of Ortiz. Earlier this week, Davidson, Ceballos, and Enriquez were arrested for Ortiz's murder. All three were also charged for the strong-armed robbery and the carjacking in Woodlake. ____________________________________________________ If you can help with the cost of the Humor Letter, please donate what you can! ______________________________________________________ From: Dolores Re: Browser death Dear Webby, I am getting very frustrated with my browsers always getting so slow, that I have to shut them down. I tried different browsers, but they all do the same. Does that happen to everybody? I do serious research and am getting quite annoyed. What can I do to fix that? Dolores Dear Dolores Shut down unnecessary programs. For example, "Search Everything" is a very handy research too, but if you leave it running, after it has found what you were looking for, it keeps grabbing memory. Exit it when it has found what you need. The same with any other program. That applies especially to browsers and browser tabs. Copy the URLs into a text file or a spreadsheet, and close unnecessary tabs. You will be surprised how much your brosers appreciate the fresh air! Have FUN!
