One Sunday a lady arrived without her head covering. The priest informs her she cannot enter without it. A few moments later, the lady reappears, wearing her blouse tied to her head. The shocked priest says, "Madam, I cannot allow you to enter this holy place without your wearing a blouse." "But Father, I have a divine right," she informs. "Yes, I see. And your left one isn't bad either, but you still must wear a blouse to enter this church." ______________________________________________________   Night over West Quoddy, Lubec, Maine West Quoddy Head Light sits on the easternmost point of the contiguous United States. _____________________________________________________

 ______________________________________________________ An INTERNATIONAL BONEHEAD AWARD has been earned by  Brice Gross, 19, Georgetown, Kentucky  Man arrested for trying to strangle woman in Kentucky cemetery  Georgetown Police arrested a man they say tried to strangle a woman in a cemetery, with the intent to kill her. Police say Brice Gross, 19, snuck up behind a woman on Saturday evening in the Georgetown Cemetery. Police say he attacked the woman and began to try to strangle her. The woman was able to fight him off, and Gross ran away, police said. Officers located Gross shortly after and arrested him. According to his arrest citation, Gross told police that he was going to strangle the woman until she was unconscious, then put her body in her own vehicle. He then told police he was going to place a rock on the car's gas pedal and send it into a body of water. In an interview from jail, Gross told WKYT's Garrett Wymer that he was at the cemetery visiting his uncle's grave, when he blacked out and went into another personality. "I vaguely remember getting her to the ground and then running," Gross said. "That's just about it. I don't remember anything else." Gross said he has several hundred personalities that he deals with - though he says nothing violent like this has happened before. He said he thinks visiting his uncle's grave brought to the surface a lot of emotions that he says likely triggered the personality change on Saturday. He says he knows he needs medical help. Gross is now charged with attempted murder and kidnapping.  _________________________________  Tech Support Pits From: Bill Re: Hijacked Dear Webby, It looks like I've been high jacked by .hemailaccessonline.com/.

 >From Irene: During a visit to a military medical clinic, I was sent to the lab to have blood drawn. The technician there was friendly and mentioned that his mood improved every day because he was due to leave the service in two months. As he applied the tourniquet on my arm, he told me that taking the blood wouldn't hurt much. Then, noticing my Air Force T-shirt he asked me what my husband did. When I replied that he was a recruiter, the technician smiled slyly and said, "This might hurt a little more than I thought."

In fact, they really are good for adults as we have to watch those calories that are not there one day but somehow those shorts you just wore refuse to fit.

 Weird things caught on camera 
 ____________________________________________________  That reminds me of this one: After a day of grueling maneuvers in the muddy swamp under the blazing Texas sun, the platoon stood in front of the barracks, exhausted, muddy from top to bottom, sweaty and smelly. "All right, ladies, think about this," bellowed the drill instructor. "If you could have ten minutes alone, right now, with anyone in the world, who would it be?" Amid much mumbling, one voice was heard from the back row. "My recruiter." ___________________________________________________  
 
 I don't know if this artist saw this unique woodworking in visions or bad dreams. 
 ___________________________________________________ Gallagher opened the morning newspaper and was dumbfounded to read in the obituary column that he had died. He quickly phoned his best friend Finney. "Did you see the paper?" asked Gallagher, "They say I died!!!" "Yes, I saw it!" replied Finney. "Where are ye callin' from???"
