Good Morning, Do! Today is Friday, March 22 Time to wear a bit of red to show your support for the troops! Spring has sprung! We still have snow in the shades of buildings, but this evening I went for my walk in my short shorts. I don't like the yuppie shorts that hang down to my knees. For me it's traditional shorts on none of them. ______________________________________________________ Today, March 22 in 1987 A barge loaded with 32,000 tons of refuse left Islip, NY, to find a place to unload.

"I'll bet you're back there to get a change of scenery after all those months of sitting in the front passenger seat teaching me how to drive," says boy.

Thanks for your votes! ___________________________________________________ Reported by the Bausell Sailor: An INTERNATIONAL BONEHEAD AWARD has been earned by Catherine Patterson, 48, Ashland, Alabama Alabama woman gets 23 felony charges in Facebook bullying case An east Alabama woman is facing more than a few days in Facebook jail after authorities say she's repeatedly used social media to bully multiple victims. Catherine Patterson, 48, was arrested this week on nearly two dozen felony warrants 23 counts of aggravated stalking to be exact. Her arrest comes after she was previously ordered to stay off social media. Clay County Sheriff Jim Studdard said the investigation began several months ago after sheriff's officials received multiple complaints of cyber bullying from different victims. They launched a probe which the sheriff described as complex and lengthy because of the need to identify a suspect or suspects by means of obtain IP addresses. Additionally, he said, they had to then obtain physical addresses. Sheriff's investigators, as well as Lineville and Ashland police, carried out a search warrant at Patterson's Ashland home on Wednesday. They recovered multiple electronic devices. Few details about the alleged bullying have been released but authorities say there is a history of conflict between Patterson and the victims, which include some former family members. Court records show Patterson was charged with harassment in 2017 and with violation of a protection order in 2017 and 2018. All of those charges against her were dismissed. Photographic evidence in one of the previous cases included a Facebook post that read, My target shooting getting better but I know I won't missed (sic) a Fat Pigs male or female I'll shot (sic) to kill not injured (sic). Aggravated stalking is a Class B felony. Patterson's bond is set at $23,000. Studdard said social media bullying is unacceptable and will not be tolerated. From: Robert Re: Ink Refilling Dear DearWebby Tell Bob to take his cartridges to COSTCO. I have a Canon MX870 that takes 5 cartridges and costs me $45.00 for all and can pick them up as soon as next day. Robert Dear Robert Yes, COSTCO is definitely a good deal. I used to get bulk ink from Atlantic Inkjet in Liter jugs (Quart) for $4.95, but eventually smartened up and got a Laser about a dozen years ago. Now I just slap in a new cartridge whenever that color runs out, which is about every second year or so. I don't plan to get back to ink ever again. By the way, I DO have a Canon PIXMA 4 function inkjet printer, that I got from NewEgg for $30. I use it as my scanner, never print with it. It is a good scanner, though! Have FUN!

A Cajun named Boudreax moved to Texas and bought a donkey from an old farmer for $100. The farmer agreed to deliver the donkey the next day. The next day, the farmer drove up and said, "Sorry, but I have some bad news. The donkey died." The Cajun said, "Well, then, just give me my money back." The farmer said, "Can't do that. I went and spent it already." The Cajun said, "Okay, then. Just unload the donkey." The farmer asked, "What ya gonna do with him?" "I'm going to raffle him off." "You can't raffle off a dead donkey!" "Sure I can. Watch me. I just won't tell anybody he's dead." A month later the farmer met up with the Cajun and asked, "What happened with that dead donkey?" "I raffled him off. I sold 500 tickets at two dollars a piece and made a profit of $898." "Didn't anyone complain?" "Just the guy who won. So I gave him his two dollars back." | If you can help with the cost of the Humor Letter, please donate what you can! | |
Two men were walking their dogs around the local country club and discussing their recent game of golf. The first man's dog was a big German Shepherd, and the second man's dog was a Chihuahua. The first man says, "Let's go into the club and get a drink." The second man says, "But we can't take our dogs into the club, and I don't want to leave Froo-Froo outside." "Oh, sure we can take our dogs inside," the first man says. "Just do as I do, and say what I say." So, the first man walks into the club and asks the waiter for a place to sit. The waiter says, "Sorry sir, but you can't have your dog in here." The man looks around aimlessly and says, "Not even seeing-eye dogs?" The waiter immediately apologizes and gives the man a seat. The second man watched this whole scene and decided to go for it. He walks in and asks the same waiter for a seat. The waiter says, "I'm sorry sir, but you can't have your dog in here." The second man says, "Not even seeing-eye dogs?" Then the waiter laughs and says, "You got to be kidding, man, you're telling me that your Chihuahua is a seeing-eye dog?!" The second man thinks for a moment, then says, "What? You mean my seeing-eye dog is a CHIHUAHUA?!?" ___________________________________________________ Daily tip from Thriftyfun.com Thriftyfun.com Frugal Toys - Frisbies Frisbees are an inexpensive outdoor toy, providing exercise and fun for a group.
