Today's Bonehead Award: Georgia woman cuts man with sword after catching him molesting her daughter ________________________________________________ If you like the Humor Letter, please vote! ______________________________________________________ In journalism, there has always been a tension between getting it first and getting it right. --- Ellen Goodman (1941 - ) We are here on Earth to do good to others. What the others are here for, I don't know. --- W. H. Auden (1907 - 1973) _____________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________ A woman went to a computer dating service and said she didn't care about looks, income or background. All she wanted was a man of upright character. Then a man came in and told them the only thing he was seeking in a woman was intelligence. The service matched them together at once because they had one thing in common -- they were both pathological liars. ______________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________ If you like the Humor Letter, please vote!

John Lawarren Williams, 25, is facing charges of aggravated molestation and cruelty to children. He is being held without bond. Deputies said they were told that the girl had also been burned with a cigarette on her private area, according to WGXA. The girl and mother went to a pediatric hospital in Macon. Williams reportedly ran away from the house when law enforcement arrived but later turned himself in to deputies. According to WGXA, he was then treated for a cut on his hand and interviewed by investigators. From: Bob Re: Ink Refilling Dear DearWebby "...after the cartridge reads empty, it is refilled. Then it is re-installed back into the printer and the stop/reset button is held down for 10 sections. The stop reset button is the button on your printer next to image of a triangle inside a circle..." I got this from Atlantic Ink about refilling my cartridges, I don't know what "sections" mean. I hate to bug them anymore, so I thought I would ask you, since you use thier products. I spend about $75.00 a month on new cartridges for our business and I need to refill like I did with my old printer. I have a Conon MP530. Thanks, Bob Dear Bob That's a typo, like your Conon printer. Can happen to all of us. She means 10 seconds. Have FNU! DearWebby Automatically move ALL your settings and programs. No need to re-install them. The only mover recommended by Intel and Microsoft. A woman was out shopping one day with her son. The boy spotted a man who was bowlegged. The boy pulled on Mom's hand and said, "Momma, look at the bowlegged man!" Mom was mortified and told her son that it was not polite to point to a person and make that sort of comment. For punishment, the boy had to read a play by Shakespeare. He couldn't go shopping again until he finished reading the play. Finally he finished and his mom took him once again to the mall. Again he spied a bowlegged man, but remembered what happened the last time. So he pulled on his mother's hand and said, "Lo, what manner of men are these, Who wear their balls in parentheses?" | If you can help with the cost of the Humor Letter, please donate what you can! | |
A man went to the police station wishing to speak with the burglar who had broken into his house the night before. "You'll get your chance in court," said the desk sergeant. "No, no, no!" said the man. "I want to know how he got into the house without waking my wife. I've been trying to do that for years!" ___________________________________________________ Daily tip from Thriftyfun.com Thriftyfun.com Saving Money on Video Games Don't buy games as soon as they come out.

___________________________________________________ Thanks to Cookie for this story: One evening I was driving my eight-year-old daughter to her grandparents' home for an overnight stay. It was late, there was very little traffic, and we were enjoying a peaceful ride. It was a far cry from the usual chaos surrounding us when I drive her to various activities during rush hour. My daughter seemed deep in thought when she said, "I have a question." "What do you want to know?" I responded. "Mom, when you're driving," she asked, "are YOU ever the stupid idiot?" ___________________________________________________ One young man was riding his bicycle across a university campus. A passerby saw that a message on the front of his T-shirt announced his occupational goal: "I AM GOING TO BE A DOCTOR." As the cyclist rode on, the passerby noticed a sign on the rear of his bicycle: "I AM GOING TO BE A MERCEDES." ___________________________________________________ | Ophelia Dingbatter's NewsNo sermon and not suitable for church, just jokes and fun for grownups.

As the bus pulled away, I realized I had left my purse under the seat. Later I called the company and was relieved that the driver had found my bag. When I went to pick it up, several off-duty bus drivers surrounded me. One man handed me my pocketbook, two typewritten pages and a box containing the contents of my purse. "We're required to inventory lost wallets and purses," he explained. "I think you'll find everything there." As I started to put my belongings back into the pocketbook, the man continued, "I hope you don't mind if we watch. Even though we all tried, none of us could fit everything back into your purse. And we'd like to see just HOW you do it." ___________________________________________________ | Today March 21 in 1349 3,000 Jews were killed in Black Death riots in Efurt Germany. 1556 Thomas Cranmer, the Archbishop of Canterbury, was burned at the stake at Oxford after retracting the last of seven recantations that same day. 1788 Almost the entire city of New Orleans, LA, was destroyed by fire. 856 buildings were destroyed. 1804 The French civil code, the Code Napoleon, was adopted. 1824 A fire at a Cairo ammunitions dump killed 4,000 horses. 1835 Charles Darwin & Mariano Gonzales met at Portillo Pass. 1851 Emperor Tu Duc ordered that Christian priests be put to death. 1851 Yosemite Valley was discovered in California. 1857 An earthquake hit Tokyo killing about 107,000. 1902 In New York, three Park Avenue mansions were destroyed when a subway tunnel roof caved in. 1907 The U.S. Marines landed in Honduras to protect American interests in the war with Nicaragua. 1908 A passenger was carried in a bi-plane for the first time by Henri Farman of France. 1909 Russia withdrew its support for Serbia and recognized the Austrian annexation of Bosnia-Herzegovina.
