One day, on just such a field, the tower received a call from an aircraft asking, "What time is it?" The tower responded, "Who is calling?" The aircraft replied, "What difference does it make?" The tower replied, "It makes a lot of difference. If you are a commercial airlines flight, it is 3 o'clock. If you are an Air Force aircraft, it is 1500 hours. If you are a Navy aircraft, it is 6 bells. If you are an Army aircraft, the big hand is on the 12 and the little hand is on the 3. If you are a Marine Corps aircraft, it's Thursday afternoon. If you are in the National Guard, it's still a couple of hours until quitting time." ____________________________________________________  ____________________________________________________ Church bulletin board bloopers: This afternoon there will be a meeting in the south and north ends of the church.

Cottonwood police said the incident began on Nov. 7 when a person reported that he was being chased by an "erratic" driver who purposely had tried to hit his car. When officers arrived at the scene, they found a car matching the suspect vehicle description and spoke to the driver, 27-year-old Raul Esquer-Rodriguez. Police said Esquer-Rodriguez refused to get out of his car, and when an officer tried to open his car door, he pulled it shut. The 27-year-old Cottonwood resident reportedly started fighting with officers after they tried to force him out of the car, eventually punching one of them in the face. "An officer deployed his Taser in an attempt to affect this arrest and Raul was able to remove the Taser probes and continue fighting," officials said. Officers were eventually able to take him into custody without any other injuries. Police found methamphetamine, cocaine, an open alcohol container and a large hunting knife in the suspect's car. Esquer-Rodriguez was booked into the Yavapai County Detention Center on drug possession and aggravated assault charges. On Sunday, November 7th, Cottonwood Police Officers took a report of a person being pursued by an erratic driver on Main Street who intentionally tried to collide with his vehicle. Officers searched the area where this reportedly took place and soon located the described vehicle in a bar parking lot on South Main Street. When Officers contacted the driver he was the lone occupant. During this contact officers observed an open alcohol container in the vehicle. The driver was later identified as 27- year-old Cottonwood resident, Raul Omar Esquer- Rodriguez. Officers instructed Raul to exit the vehicle and he refused. One of the officers attempted to open Rauls driver door but Raul pulled it shut. Officers attempted to remove Raul from the vehicle and he began fighting, punching one officer in the face. An officer deployed his Taser in an attempt to affect this arrest and Raul was able to remove the Taser probes and continue fighting. After a few moments officers were able to gain control of Raul and affected the arrest without further incident. During a search of Rauls vehicle and person, officers located a usable amount of methamphetamine, cocaine and a large hunting knife. Raul Esquer-Rodriguez was booked into the Yavapai County Detention Center on charges of Possession of Dangerous Drugs (methamphetamine), Possession of Narcotic Drug (cocaine), Possession of Drug Paraphernalia, Possession of a Deadly Weapon During the Commission of a Felony, Aggravated Assault on a Law Enforcement Officer, Resisting Arrest and Possession of an Open Container in a Motor Vehicle. He remains in custody on two $2,500 bonds. ____________________________________________________ If you can help with the cost of the Humor Letter, please donate what you can! ______________________________________________________ From: Isolde Re: Search Dear Webby I KNOW you told me which program to use for finding misplaced files.

I followed him to a bar, to an out- of-the-way restaurant and then to an apartment." A big smile crossed Jane's face. "Aha! I've got him!" she said gloating. "Is there any doubt what he was doing?" "No ma'am." replied the sleuth, "There is absolutely no doubt. It's pretty clear that he was following you and taking pictures for his web site." ______________________________________________ An applicant was filling out a job application.
