Good Morning, Do! Today is Thaturday, November 6 Thank you, James! ------------ >From Ginger Dear Webby A couple of days ago, one of your subscribers asked about "surveys" and you lumped them all together and said they were scams. I have been earning a little extra for many years (more that a decade) doing surveys (4 different sites). They will not make you "rich" but they do pay out and I personally let them accumulate until this time of year and then redeem my earnings to help pay for Xmas. (Some sites are almost impossible to earn enough to cash out and are basically scams - I dumped those sites early on.) I easily make a couple hundred dollars (US) every year and they pay with gift cards or paypal. Cash out is as low as $10.00. They only take a few minutes each day. Of the sites I use only 2 accept Canadians - https://today.yougov.com/ - this site pays out in points for surveys which can be redeemed. Just go down to where it says "join the community". I usually make $50.00 a year here for 1 or two surveys a week. https://www.inboxdollars.com/ - this site pays a lot of different ways - cash for completing surveys, printing and using coupons, watching video clips, cash back for shopping and points playing games that you can redeem for a chance to win more money. Just sign up and they even give you a $5.00 bonus for that so you are already half way to the $10.00 minimum cash pay out. Depending on how many things you do you can easily make $100 or more per year. I believe you can also earn with referrals but I don't know if that works if they aren't the same country - so I am not giving you my referral links. But check these out - verify they are legitimate and then share your links with Ophelia and your subscribers ands earn more. Hope this helps you and your subscribers.

Can you please find it and run it again? Lindsey Sure, Lindsey, I remember that one. It's rather long, but priceless: Upon arriving home in eager anticipation of a leisurely evening, the husband was met at the door by his sobbing wife. Tearfully she explained, "It's the Pharmacist, he insulted me terribly this morning on the telephone." Immediately the husband drove downtown to the pharmacy to demand an apology. Before he could say more than a word or two, the pharmacist told him, "Now, just a minute - listen to my side of it." "This morning the alarm failed to go off, so I was late getting up. I hurried out to the car, but I'll be damned if I didn't lock the house with both house and car keys inside. I had to break a window to get my keys. Driving a little too fast, I got a speeding ticket. Then, about three blocks from the store I had a flat tire. When I finally got to the store there was a bunch of people waiting in line. One little old lady thought I ws trying to get ahead of her in the line and smashed my glasses with her umbrella. I finally got the store opened and started waiting on these people, and all the time the darn phone was ringing its head off. Then I had to break a roll of nickels against the cash register drawer to make change, and they spilled all over the floor. I got down on my hands and knees to pick up the nickels, the phone is still ringing - when I came up I cracked my head on the open cash drawer, which made me stagger back against a showcase with a bunch of perfume bottles on it, and half of them hit the floor and broke. The phone is still ringing with no let up, and so, while I was sitting on the floor in a puddle of perfume and broken glass , I answered it. It was your wife - she wanted to know how to use a rectal thermometer. Well, Mister, I TOLD HER!" ____________________________________________________ Reported by Rock An INTERNATIONAL BONEHEAD AWARD has been earned by David Orozco, Phoenix, Arizona, USA Arrest made after deadly stabbing Police say a man is dead and a woman was injured after they were both stabbed during a fight early Sunday morning in Phoenix.

"Darling, whatever is the matter?" he asked. "Sweetheart," she sobbed, "the most terrible thing has happened! I cooked my very first Beef Bourguignon for you, and I got it out of the oven to season it, and the phone rang. When I came back from answering the phone," she sobbed again. "I found that the cat had eaten it!" "Don't worry, darling," said her husband. "Don't cry.
