Joshua Blakely and Lakeisha Blakely were arrested Tuesday night. Joshua, 17, was charged with murder, aggravated assault, possession of a stolen firearm, tampering with evidence and making false statements. His 41-year-old mother was charged with tampering with evidence, theft by receiving stolen property, and obstruction of officers. Investigators were out Tuesday evening combing over the scene at the now-closed section of Old Dallas Road just beyond the football field at Jessie Davis Park near Dallas Highway and Malone Street. "The Douglasville Police Department was called out to this location and found the deceased victim. We started our investigation, and these people were arrested," said Dr. Gary Sparks, Douglasville Chief of Police. The name of the teen killed has not been released.

Both suspects were booked into the Douglas County Jail. _____________________________________________________ >From Jocelyn Here's an exercise I have been doing to stay in shape.

The 47-year-old drunk charged into the post office and handed over a note saying ``This is a robbery,'' the local newspaper Bergensavisen said on Friday. But his wife's name and personal details were on the back of the demand note, the newspaper said. The man told a court he did not remember the robbery, but admitted he had a suspicion of having been up to no good when he woke up and saw a picture of the be- knickered robber in the newspaper and found a large wad of money in his living room. ______________________________________________________ According to social security records, 7266 girls were named "Unique" in 2021. ___________________________________________________ A man calls home to his wife and says, "Honey I have been asked to go fishing at Paint Lake up in Canada with my boss and several of his friends. We'll be gone for a week." "This is a good opportunity for me to get that promotion I've been wanting so would you please pack me enough clothes for a week and set out my rod and tacklebox. We're leaving from the office and I will swing by the house to pick my things up. Oh! Please pack my new blue silk pajamas." The wife thinks this sounds a little fishy but being a good wife she does exactly what her husband asked. The following weekend he comes home a little tired but otherwise looking good. The wife welcomes him home and asks if he caught many fish? He says, "Yes! Lot's of Walleye, some Bluegill, and a few Pike. But why didn't you pack my new blue silk pajamas like I asked you to do?" The wife replies; "I did, they are in the top of your tackle box." ___________________________________________________ The children and grandchildren of an elderly Jewish woman decided to send Bubbe(grandmother in Jewish) on a cruise. Bubbe boarded the ship and showed her ticket to the purser. He looked at it and said, "Oh, I see you have U.D." She replied, "U.D.? Voos is U.D.? He said, "U.D. is Upper Deck." She then went to the upper deck and showed her ticket to the steward there and he said, "I see, that in addition to U.D., you also have O.C." Bubbe replied, "O.C.? Voos is O.C.?" The steward said, "O.C. is Outside Cabin." Bubbe, needless to say, was delighted. She then showed her ticket to the cabin boy and he said, "Oh, I see that you also have B.I.B.".... "B.I.B.? Voos is B.I.B.?" asked Bubbe. The cabin boy answered, "B.I.B. is Breakfast In Bed." "Oh" she said; "Mine children and grandchildren are vonderful." Well, the next morning, bright and early, the staff came right into her room with trays of food for her Breakfast In Bed and she said, "F.U.C.K" Shocked, they said, "F.U.C.K? ...What do you mean F.U.C.K.?", To which the old grandmother replied, "Yes, F.U.C.K.. . First U Could Knock!" __________________________________________________ If you can spare a coin, please hit paypal with it! ____________________________________________________   Warbling Vireo ___________________________________________________ >From Connie Q.

"But, Mom," he said, brightening, "you don't have to worry about buying another one. Charlie's mother said it was irreplaceable." ___________________________________________________ Last time Bill was in the hospital, he really enjoyed himself: Patting the bottoms of the pretty nurses, offering to show them his circumcision scar, and the like. One nurse finally had all she could stand of his crude behavior and said, "A pervert like you should be living in a whore house!" Bill grinned at her and said, "Well, it WOULD be cheaper than here, but I can't get my insurance to pay for it." _____________________________________________________   Great Blue Heron Lafarge Meadow FishCreek Park magnificent great blue Heron, weighs only 2.6 kilos with a wingspan of 2.14 meters.

He examined it and told her, "There's nothing wrong with the clock. You didn't have it plugged in." Audrey replied, "I don't want to waste electricity, so I only plug it in when I want to know what time it is." ______________________________________________________
