Eddie cordero was given the maximum punishment for shooting and killing merehildo luna and andres sanchez in may of last year. Luna and sanchez were shot and killed in may of 2021 at the palace in old town clovis. A dj was also injured in the shooting. Surveillance video from that night shows cordero firing the shots. It also showed him an hour before that arguing with luna. Judge arlan harrell spoke briefly before handing down the sentence calling cordero "extremely dangerous." "It makes no sense to me. None. There's been no explanation because there is no explanation for such criminal conduct," said judge harrell. Cordero was sentenced to two consecutive life sentences without the possibility of parole, along with additional time for injuring the dj. _____________________________________________________ a man learned shortly before quitting time that he had to attend a meeting. He tried unsuccessfully to locate his car-pool members to let them know that he would not be leaving with them. Hastily he scribbled a message to one fellow and left it on his desk: "i have a last-minute meeting. Leave without me. Dave." At 7:00 p.M., the man stopped at his desk and found this note: "meet us at the bar and grill across the street. You drove, you idiot." _____________________________________________________   elhade shita _____________________________________________________ each evening bird lover tom stood in his backyard, hooting like an owl - and one night, an owl finally called back to him. For a year, the man and his feathered friend hooted back and forth. He even kept a log of the "conversation." Just as he thought he was on the verge of a breakthrough in interspecies communication, his wife had a chat with her next door neighbor. "My husband spends his nights ... Calling out to owls," she said. "That's odd," the neighbor replied. "So does my husband." _____________________________________________________   @ tanya wierenga great horned owls, lacombe county teaching her daughter how to hunt ___________________________________________________ where to place them take the prospective employees you are trying to place and put them in a room with only a table and two chairs. Leave them alone for two hours, without any instruction. At the end of that time, go back and see what they are doing. If they have taken the table apart, put them in engineering. If they are counting the butts in the ashtray, assign them to finance. If they are waving their arms and talking out loud, send them to consulting. If they are talking to the chairs, personnel is a good spot for them. If they are wearing green sunglasses and need a haircut, computer information systems is their niche. _________________________________________________  dearwebby's tech support pits from: olga re: reboot how often? Dear webby, how oftebn should I reboot my computer? Olga  dear olga that depends on what you are doing. If you use it just for work, then once a month is plenty for w10, once every second month with w7. If you use it mostly for browsing, games, facebook, and video chatting, then of course a lot more often. You can prolong the time between reboots by hitting ctrl shift esc to call the task manager, and kill whatever is on top when you look at processes. Highlight the memory hog(s) and click on end process at the bottom. Once you have killed everything that uses more than 250 mb of memory, your machine will speed up nicely without having to reboot. Dearwebby ___________________________________________________ after watching the movie cinderella, five-year-old sarah started using her pinwheel as a magic wand, pretending she was a fairy godmother. "Make three wishes," she told her mother, "and i'll grant them." Her mom first asked for world peace. Sarah swung her wand and proclaimed the request fulfilled. Next, her mother requested for a cure for all ill children. Again, with a sweep of the pinwheel, sarah obliged. The mother, with a glance down at her rather ample curves, made her third wish, "i wish to have a trim figure again." The miniature fairy godmother started waving her wand madly. "I'll need more power for this!" She exclaimed. _____________________________________________________ to impress his date, the young man took her to a very chick italian restaurant. After sipping some fine wine, he picked up the menu and studied it with an appraising eye. "We'll both have the giuseppe spomdalucci," he said finally. "Sorry, sir," said the waiter. "That's the owner." _____________________________________________ ophelia dingbatter's news no sermon and not suitable for church, just jokes and fun for grownups. Read it on-line or subscribe.
