 ______________________________________________________ Laughter is the closest distance between two people. --- Victor Borge (1909 - 2000) _____________________________________________________ If you like the Humor Letter, please vote!  ______________________________________________________ A man from New York City found himself in a spot of bother after the IRS returned his tax return to him due to an incorrectly-answered question. One of the questions on his tax return asked him to list his dependents. A few days later, they received the following response: 15.1 million illegal immigrants, 1.1 million crackheads, 4.4 million unemployed deadbeats, 180,000 criminals in over 85 prisons, at least 450 idiots in Congress and numerous others who call themselves politicians, but are in fact nothing of the sort. In a strongly-worded letter accompanying the man's tax return, the IRS responded: This answer is completely unacceptable and an insult to this government institution. In turn, he replied: I thought it was quite detailed. Who did I leave out? _____________________________________________________   ______________________________________________________   Colibri Topaze _____________________________________________________

 _____________________________________________________ The Christian missionary was making his first visit to a cannibal tribe. The missionary asked the cannibal chief, "Do you people know anything about religion?" After a pause, the chief answered, "We got a little taste of it when the last missionary was here." _____________________________________________________ An INTERNATIONAL BONEHEAD AWARD has been earned by  Xavier Inocencio Moran, 25, Royal Palm Beach, Florida  Man's own dashboard camera shows him committing burglary  A Royal Palm Beach man accused of burglary has his vehicle's dashboard camera to thank for landing him in the Palm Beach County Jail, according to an arrest report. Xavier Inocencio Moran, 25, is accused of using a baseball bat first to break into the Sally's Beauty Supply in Royal Palm Beach on April 5, then on a safe in order to attempt entry. More than three hours after the alleged burglary, on State Road 7 near Southern Boulevard, Moran was involved in a crash on Belvedere Road. Moran told a Palm Beach County sheriff's deputy that he was cut off by another driver and could prove it through his dashboard camera. Moran signed a consent waiver to search the camera. While reviewing the video footage, the deputy observed Moran's 2014 Nissan backing into a parking space in front of the Sally's Beauty Supply store. The video then allegedly shows Moran taking a bat from the car's trunk and breaking the glass door leading into the business. The report states that Moran was arrested Tuesday at the Palm Beach County Courthouse, but does not detail the circumstances. Records show that Moran was also arrested on April 7 after he allegedly threatened to shoot his brother with an assault rifle and pistol. Moran and his brother live with their parents in Royal Palm Beach. During the incident, Moran allegedly pointed the gun at his father and threatened to harm his parents as well as his brother. After he was arrested, Moran allegedly ran from authorities. Despite being restricted by handcuffs, he jumped over a fence and attempted to hide behind bushes, according to a sheriff's report. Moran is facing two counts of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon and one count each of battery, resisting an officer without violence and escape in the April 7 incident. He was released from jail Sunday under court-ordered supervision.   Tech Support Pits From: Jazzye Re: Dogfood Diet  Dear Webby, Thanx for your GREAT humour letter...it's a cool read from start to finish! I have a special request, and I'm sending a 'reply' as you say to get in touch with you. Is there any way possible or a link I can access to find the 'dog food diet' joke that I believe you put in the letter a few months ago?? I would greatly appreciate it! Thanx again! Jazzye  Dear Jazzye DOGFOOD DIET I have a Labrador Retriever & I was buying a large bag of Purina at Wal-Mart and was in line to check out. A woman behind me asked if I had a dog. On impulse, I told her that no, I was starting The Purina Diet again, although I probably shouldn't because I'd ended up in the hospital last time, but that I'd lost 50 pounds before I awakened in an intensive care ward with tubes coming out of most of my orifices and IVs in both arms. I told her that it was essentially a perfect diet and that the way that it works is to load your pants pockets with Purina nuggets and simply eat one or two every time you feel hungry & that the food is nutritionally complete, so I was going to try it again. I have to mention here that practically everyone in the line was by now enthralled with my story, particularly a tall guy who was behind her. Horrified, she asked if I'd been poisoned. I told her no; I'd been sitting in the street licking my butt and a car hit me. I thought the tall guy was going to need help as he roared with laughter and staggered to the door and fresh air.

 Thanks to Margaret for this story: Jesse Jackson got out of the shower and was drying off when he looked in the mirror and noticed he was white from the neck up to the top of his head. In sheer panic and fearing he really was turning white and might have to start working for a living, he called his doctor and told him of his problem. The doctor advised him to come to his office immediately. After an examination, the doctor mixed a concoction of brown liquid, gave it to Jesse, and told him to drink it all. Jesse did and replied, "That tasted like bull sh..!" The doctor replied, "It was, Jesse. You were a quart low." ____________________________________________________  Daily tip from Thriftyfun.com Meatloaf Muffins To make meatloaf in convenient serving size, make your favorite meatloaf recipe in muffin tins.

The police officer that is following behind her finally has had enough and hits the lights and signals Laura to pull over. "First you put your hand up, like you're turning right, then you wave your hand up and down, then you turn left," said the officer. "I decided not to turn right," Laura explains. "Then why the up and down?" asks the officer. "Officer," Laura sniffs, "I was erasing!"  
The Shirk Report 
 ___________________________________________________ A man traveling down a country road was forced to stop before a giant puddle covering the entire road. Looking to the side of the road, the man noticed a farmer leaning on a fence. "Think it's safe to cross?" the man asked. "I reckon so," replied the farmer. The car was immediately swallowed by the puddle as the man drove in. In fact, it was so deep that he had to roll his window down to swim out of his car back to the surface. As his head broke the surface the man said to the farmer, "I thought you said I could safely drive through this puddle!" "Well, golly!" said the farmer, scratching his head. "It only come up chest-high on my little ducks!" ___________________________________________________
