Good Morning, Do! Today is Wednesday, June 16 Thank you, Neil Today, June 16, I have to go to Calgary for injections into my eyeballs. They were supposed to be in March, but I need a driver to bring me back, and my driver had too maany scheduling conflicts. So most likely the surgeon will be very annoyed, and really pump me up. Three days later I will be back. So for three days I will not badger you to send your leftover coins to my PayPal. ___________________________________________________ If you can spare a coin, PLEASE hit PayPal with it! ___________________________________________________  Man accused of shooting catalytic converter thief and dragging body with his truck  ___________________________________________________ Today, June 16 in 1963 26-year-old Valentina Tereshkova went into orbit aboard the Vostok 6 spacecraft for three days.

Tucker ____________________________________________________ An 8-year-old girl went to her dad, who was working in the yard. She asked him: "Daddy, what is sex?" The Dad was surprised that she would ask such a question, but decides that if she is old enough to ask the question, then she is old enough to get a straight answer. He proceeded to tell her all about the 'birds and the bees'. When he finished explaining, the little girl was looking at him with her mouth hanging open. "Why did you ask this question?" Her father asked her: The little girl replied, "Well mom told me to tell you that dinner would be ready in just a couple of secs." ____________________________________________________   ____________________________________________________ The teacher in Little Johnny's school asked the class what their mothers did for a living. One little girl said her mother was a doctor, another said her mother was an engineer. When it was Little Johnny's turn, he stood up and said: "My mom's a streetwalker." Naturally, after that remark, he got sent off to the principal's office. Then, 15 minutes later, he returned. So the teacher asked, "Did you tell the principal what you said in class?" Johnny said "Yes" "Well, what did the principal say?" "He said that every job is important in our economy, gave me an apple and asked for my phone number." ____________________________________________________ An INTERNATIONAL BONEHEAD AWARD has been earned by  Michael Campbell, Lakewood, Washington, USA  Man accused of shooting catalytic converter thief and dragging body with his truck  a lakewood, washington man who's reportedly been living in his truck for the past two years is accused of shooting a suspected catalytic converter thief, then dragging him with his truck before leaving him in a field to die. According to court documents, it happened around 3:45 a.M. Saturday in the parking lot of a business at the intersection of sharondale street sw and halcyon road sw in lakewood. A truck driver told police he witnessed a suspicious white ford f-150 dragging an unknown object through the rear parking lot, then saw the driver of the ford get out of his vehicle and drive away in a red truck. When police arrived, they found a man dead in the field with obvious signs of trauma and gunshot wounds. The suspect, later identified as michael campbell, told police he was sleeping in his truck when he woke up to find someone trying to steal the catalytic converter from under his vehicle. Campbell told police he opened the passenger side of his truck and saw legs sticking out from underneath. He admitted to shooting the person, then shooting two more times. The person he shot tried to get into his own vehicle, campbell said, but fell to the ground. That's when campbell reportedly tied the victim's hands above his head and attached them to the hitch on his ford truck. He said he dragged him through the field, then untied him and left him there. Campbell said the man was still alive and talking when he attached him to the truck and was still alive when he left him in the field, according to charging documents. Campbell, who has prior felony convictions, is charged with second-degree murder and first-degree kidnapping.  
 dearwebby's tech support pits from: wendy re: how long do spiral lights really last? Dear webby the ads claim that the spiral lights last 10 to 25 years. One friend had one and it died after about five years. What is the real story? Wendy  Dear wendy Nobody knows. They have not been around that long. I have had them last 5 - 6 years. That is better than the old-fashioned incandescent bulbs, but a long shot from 25 years. They are still a good deal, because they use less electricity than the incandescent bulbs. LEDlights use even less, but those are still very expensive. Give those another five years. Have FUN! DearWebby 
 A husband and wife were having dinner at a very fine restaurant when this absolutely stunning young woman comes over to their table, gives the husband a big open mouthed kiss, then says she'll see him later and walks away. The wife glares at her husband and says, "Who the blazes was that?" "Oh," replies the husband, "she's my mistress." "Well, that's the last straw," says the wife. "I've had enough. I want a divorce!" I can understand that," replies her husband, "but remember, if we get a divorce it will mean no more shopping trips to Paris, no more wintering in Barbados, no more summers in Tuscany, no more Lexus in the garage and no more yacht club. But the decision is yours." Just then, a mutual friend enters the restaurant with a gorgeous babe on his arm. "Who's that woman with Jim?" asks the wife. "That's his mistress," says her husband. "Ours is prettier," she replies.

 A Classic: A 75 year old man went to his doctor's office for a sperm count test. The doctor gave the man a jar, told him to take it home and return the next day with a sample. The next day, the 75 year old man reappeared at the doctor's office and gave the doctor the jar, which was as clean and empty as on previous day. The doctor asked what happened. "Well, doc, it's like this: First I tried with my right hand, but nothing. Then with my left... still nothing. Then, I asked my wife for help. She tried her right hand... but nothing. Then her left... still nothing. She even tried with her mouth, both with and without her teeth... and still nothing. We even called the lady next door and she tried with both hands and her mouth too, but _still_ nothing." The doctor was shocked. "You asked your neighbor?" The old man replied, "Yep, but no matter what we tried we couldn't get the damn jar open!" ___________________________________________ As part of his parole agreement, Mike Tyson has to go back to school and finish grade five.
