Good Morning, Do! Today is Monday, November 16 ___________________________________________________ International Bonehead Award Kansas teacher will face stalking charge ____________________________________ Today, November 16 in 1885 Canadian rebel Louis Riel was executed for high treason. _____________________________________________________ The follies which a man regrets most, in his life, are those which he didn't commit when he had the opportunity. --- ]Helen Rowland (1876 - 1950) The power of accurate observation is commonly called cynicism by those who have not got it. --- George Bernard Shaw _____________________________________________________ A priest and a rabbi operated a church and a synagogue across the street from each other. Since their schedules intertwined, they decided to go in together to buy a car. After the purchase, they drove it home and parked it on the street between them. A few minutes later, the rabbi looked out and saw the priest sprinkling water on their new car. It didn't need a wash, so he hurried out and asked the priest what he was doing. "I'm blessing it," the priest replied. The rabbi considered this a moment, then went back inside the synagogue. He reappeared a moment later with a hacksaw, walked over to the back of the car and cut off two inches of the tailpipe. _____________________________________________________ Owl with 2 chicks in the Sonora desert ___________________________________________________ Two women were at a bar. One looked at the other and said, "You know, 80 percent of all men think the best way to end an argument is to make love." "Well," said the other, "that would certainly revolutionize the arguing after every football game about who should have won !" _________________________________________________ An INTERNATIONAL BONEHEAD AWARD has been earned by James Loganbill, Olathe, Kansas, USA Kansas teacher will face stalking charge A judge has ruled that a stalking charge will stand against a former fourth-grade teacher in the Olathe School District accused of surreptitiously photographing a 10-year-old student. A Johnson County judge on Thursday rejected the argument of ex- teacher James Loganbills attorney that because the girl didnt know she was being photographed, she wouldnt have been fearful of the teacher, the Kansas City Star reported. Defense attorney Carl Cornwell argued for the charge to be thrown out, saying that under Kansas reckless stalking law, the girl would have had to have feared Loganbills actions. Judge Thomas Sutherland disagreed, finding that the girl expressed fear once she learned what the teacher was doing. The statute does not require the victim to be scared at the exact time of defendants action, Sutherland wrote. Prosecutors have said the girls classmates reported seeing Loganbill secretly taking photos of her from behind in class and on the playground. Investigators said that under questioning, Loganbill admitted taking the photos because he found the girl sexually attractive. Loganbill resigned in March after 31 years with the district upon being confronted. He faces up to a year in jail if convicted. The girls parents plan to sue the school district next month, the Star reported, alleging that the district failed to act after being made aware of previous complaints against Loganbill for questionable behavior involving young girls.

_____________________________________________ A vacationer e-mailed a seaside hotel in England to ask its location. "It's only a stone's throw away from the beach," he was told. "But how will I recognize it?" asked the man. Back came the reply: "It's the one with all the broken windows." ____________________________________________ A clerk in a bakery notices a customer carefully examining all the rich-looking pastries displayed on trays in the glass cases. "What would you like?" the clerk asks. "I'd like that chocolate-covered, cream-filled doughnut, that jelly-filled doughnut and that cheese Danish," the customer says. With a sigh he adds, "But I'll take an oat-bran muffin." ____________________________________________ The company where my brother worked had a phone system that rerouted after-hours calls. If any calls came in on a certain line while he was working late, he knew it would be a wrong number. It got to the point where, as soon as the phone rang, he would pick up and say, "Psychic Hotline. I'm sorry, but you have dialed the wrong number." The callers would often reply with something like, "I didn't even ask to speak to anyone yet. How did you know I dialed the wrong... Oh!"
