Good Morning, Do! >From Jim Why dont you charge for your letter.like Ophelia. Im sure you would have no problem getting people to pony up and it would help your financial problems. Your are, hands down, the best news letter around. Jim Dear Jim Ophelia may soon give up. She is down to less than 70 paid up subscribers. Her fans love her, but none of them bring in THEIR friends. And today another one of them died. I won't be surprised when she gives up. Right now I get some voluntary donations now and then. I have a hunch, if I charge a fixed amount,most subscribers will run. I can just see it: "Ah likes the cuntent, but wif Bidenflation I cunt afford a Dollah a muntz fer a Noosletta". Would YOU pay? Please tell me! Ill CC this to the Humor Letter and decide depending on the response. Thank You, Jim! Today is Fiday, May 26 Time to wear a bit of red to show your support for the troops! ____________________________________________________ History: Today, May 26 in 1977, George H.

He later received in the mail a ticket for $40 and a photo of his car. Instead of payment, he sent the police department a photograph of $40. Several days later, he received a letter from the police that contained another picture, this time of handcuffs. He immediately mailed in his $40. _____________________________________________________ Guy walked into a little corner store with a shotgun and demanded all of the cash from the cash drawer. After the cashier put the cash in a bag, the robber saw a bottle of Scotch that he wanted behind the counter on the shelf. He told the cashier to put it in the bag as well, but the cashier refused and said, "Because I don't believe you are over 21." The robber said he was, but the clerk still refused to give it to him because he didn't believe him. At this point, the robber took his driver's license out of his wallet and gave it to the clerk. The clerk looked it over and agreed that the man was in fact over 21 and he put the Scotch in the bag. The robber then ran from the store with his loot. The cashier promptly called the police and gave the name and address of the robber that he got off the license. They arrested the robber two hours later, when the Scotch had slowed him down some. ______________________________________________________ With the end of Gullible Warming and the start of the next ice age, the polar bears are migrating South again.

With the victims phone in his hand, Diaz walked into the victims kitchen and retrieved a silver-handled knife with a silver blade. He then approached the victim, who was getting up from the ground and ordered her to turn the alarm off. After the victim attempted to turn the alarm off, she advised he pointed the knife at her and told her to go into the bedroom which is located at the rear of the apartment. Once in the bedroom, she sat at the edge of the bed facing the door. The male placed the knife down on a table near the bed and denied the victim access to her phone as she received a call from her alarm company as well as text messages. Diaz then attempted to remove her clothing, despite her repeatedly telling him to stop. She advised that Diaz pulled down her shirt and bra at the collar and began kissing her bare breasts. He then began to take off his own clothing. The victim advised that the male stopped what he was doing upon hearing officers at her front door. As Diaz began putting his pants back on, she explained that she attempted to run out of the bedroom. As she did so, Diaz picked up the knife causing her to retreat into a bedroom corner to the right of the bedroom door. Diaz approached her coming within inches of her but she was able to get away and enter into the living room where she attempted to open the front door for officers outside who were trying to make entry. She explained that once Diaz heard the sound of the rear slider being breached, he placed the knife into the laundry basket. Police say that Diaz, who appeared intoxicated, was observed as having no shirt on and his pants were on backward. Diaz refused to talk to the Police.
