Everything was ready, and nothing could dampen Jennifer's excitement, not even her parents' nasty divorce. Her mother Sheila finally found the PERFECT dress to wear and would be the best dressed mother of the bride EVER! A week later, Jennifer was horrified to learn her new young stepmother, Barbie, had purchased the same dress. She asked Barbie to exchange the dress, but Barbie refused, "Absolutely not! I'm going to wear this dress; I'll look like a million in it!" Jennifer told her mother, who graciously replied, "Never mind dear. I'll get another dress, after all it's your special day, not hers." Two weeks later, another dress was finally found. When they stopped for lunch, Jennifer asked her mother, "What are you going to do with the first dress? Maybe you should return it. You don't have any place to wear it." Sheila grinned and replied, "Of course, I do, dear! I'm wearing it to the rehearsal dinner!" ____________________________________________________ When you're 4... success is... Not peeing in your pants. When you're 12... success is... Having friends.

Lauren Dooley, 22, was arrested Wednesday, Sept. 28, after Colorado Springs police officers responded to an apartment complex in the 2500 block of Each Cache La Poudre Street. The officers had received a call around 5:45 p.m. that evening where they heard the 21-year-old victim saying he was "bleeding all over the bed" and telling someone: "because you cut me" and "youre going to kill me," according to an arrest affidavit obtained by FOX 21. Responding officers found a male naked and bleeding in the parking lot of the apartment complex who needed help. The victim was seen backing away from Dooley "who appeared to have blood smeared on her arms and hands," according to an arrest affidavit. The victim accused her of tying him up and cutting him. The victim told officers the two had met on Tinder. They agreed to go to her apartment where she took her clothes off and performed oral sex on him before using duck tape to bind the victims wrists and ankles together. The victim said he "found it odd, but consented to it," according to the affidavit. At some point, Dooley got out a kitchen knife and demanded the victim go to the bedroom at which point he no longer consented to stay at her apartment. The victim obeyed Dooley for fear of his life and got into her bed. Dooley then got on top of him and cut his left shoulder before choking him with her hands and then with a belt, the affidavit said. Dooley became upset that the victim was "bleeding all over her bed" so she told him to get in the bathtub, the affidavit said. He complied and Dooley ordered food from DoorDash. She allegedly told him: "if you scream or say anything, Ill kill you." After eating, Dooley got into bed with the victim and pulled a blanket over him. The victim noticed that the knife shed used earlier was at her feet. After she fell asleep, the victim managed to obtain the knife and free himself. While attempting to get his keys and phone, he bumped into a table, waking her up, and ran into the parking lot for help. Responding officers conducted of a sweep of Dooleys apartment and found a kitchen knife near the bed, several soaked rags, and blood all over the bathtub. Dooley was arrested and charged with several felonies including second-degree kidnapping, assault in the second- degree, menacing, and false imprisonment. _____________________________________________________ On a Continental Flight with a very "senior" flight attendant crew, the pilot said, "Ladies and gentlemen, we've reached cruising altitude and will be turning down the cabin lights.

Their conversation drifted from politics to cooking. "I got a cookbook once," said the first, "but I could never do anything with it." "Too much fancy cooking in it, eh?" asked the second. "You said it. Every one of the recipes was limited to women and began the same way - 'Take a clean dish and....'" ----------------- Since I reverted to being an un-tamed bachelor, I found that buying more dishes just makes the weekly dish-washing even more tedious. _____________________________________________________ ophelia dingbatter's news no sermon and not suitable for church, just jokes and fun for grownups.
