So when the old junker was stolen from his office parking lot, his family was delighted. Nonetheless, they called the police and filed an insurance claim. Their relief was short-lived, within an hour an officer was on the phone. "We found the car less than a mile away," he said, trying to restrain himself. "It had a note on it that read, 'Thanks anyway, we'd rather walk.'" _____________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________ The good bishop knew very well that not only did everyone in his small town look to him for an example, but that all too often, all eyes were on him as potential fodder for the local gossip mill, as well. This could be wearing; but usually, he was able to provide the good example and escape the tattlers. One night, however, after a long, hard day, a social obligation beckoned on top of his church responsibilities, and he came to a sudden stopping place. His hostess, noting that he looked tired, asked with concern, "A spot of tea, Bishop?" "No, thank you," he managed. "No tea." "Ah," she said. "Coffee, then?" "No coffee either, thank you." In the spirit of triage, she leaned closer and murmured, "I could bring you a scotch and soda in a coffee mug?" "My dear, this is my last word: NO soda." ______________________________________________________ Blue Carpenter Bee _____________________________________________________ If you like the Humor Letter, please vote!

Police say a stripper in Florida showed her strength (and fearlessness) in a different way this week, by ripping an entire electrical meter off the wall of the club. According to local station WFLA, police say Christie Caratini- Mendoza, a stripper at Desire Gentleman's Club in New Port Richey, Fla., got into a fight with a co-worker. She reportedly punched the other woman, knocked her down and kicked her. Police say she then took her anger out on the Progress Energy meter bolted to the wall of the club, dismantling the meter and hiding it.

Dear Yorkie When you save a picture from a page, and Windows wants to save it as a .BMP file instead of JPG or GIF, then your RAM memory is so full that pretty soon programs will start to lock up. Then it's time to log off AOL, run CrapCleaner or reboot. Have FUN! DearWebby Automatically move ALL your settings and programs. No need to re-install them.

"I just hope they don't die in the house!"

As an admissions counselor for a state university, I took a call from an irate mother who was demanding to know why her daughter had been turned down. Avoiding any mention of the transcript full of D's, I explained that her daughter just wasn't as "competitive" as the admitted class. "Why doesn't she try anther school for a year and then transfer?" I suggested. "Another school!" exclaimed the Mother. "Have you seen her grades?" ___________________________________________________ Daily tip from Thriftyfun.com Thriftyfun.com Fixing Tweezers Have your tweezers flattened out and lost their spring? Close the tweezers with a pencil placed halfway between the hinge and the points to increase the bend. Then they should grip again. Before bending the tweezers it is a good idea to first true the tips by pulling a double-sided diamond grit nail file or folded sandpaper sideways through the tips a few times. The sideways wipe will leave a microscopic version of the serration on pliers. Have FUN!

"He'll be fine," the doctor promised her. "The magnet should pass through his system in a day or two." "HDo you cook?ow will I be sure?" she pressed. "Well," the doctor suggested, "you could stick him on the refrigerator. When he falls off, you'll know." ___________________________________________________ A man observed a sign in the window of a restaurant that read "Unique Breakfast", so he walked in and sat down. The waitress brought him his coffee and asked him what he wanted. "What's your 'Unique Breakfast'?" he asked inquisitively. "Baked tongue of chicken," she replied proudly. "Baked tongue of chicken? Do you have ANY idea how disgusting that is? I would never even consider eating anything that came out of a chicken's mouth!" the man fumed. Undaunted, the waitress asked, "Well, what would you like then, sir?" The man replied, "Just bring me some scrambled eggs." ___________________________________________________ Ophelia Dingbatter's NewsNo sermon and not suitable for church, just jokes and fun for grownups.
