 ___________________________________________________   An INTERNATIONAL BONEHEAD AWARD has been earned by  Cassandra Kerr, 40, Concetta Didiano, 22, Tampa, Floriduh  Mom-Daughter Drone Duo Is Headed For Jail  APRIL 26 A mother-daughter duo who used a $4000 drone to drop a package of contraband behind the walls of a Florida prison will themselves serve time as a result of a felony plea deal struck with prosecutors, court records show. Cassandra Kerr, 40, and Concetta Didiano, 22, this week each entered no contest pleas to introducing contraband into a state correctional institution, a felony carrying a maximum of five years in prison. As part of a plea deal, Kerr and Didiano (pictured above) are expected to each receive six months in jail when they are sentenced in late-July. The pair will also have to pay court and prosecution costs, according to plea forms. Kerr and Didiano were arrested in mid-December, shortly after Martin Correctional Institution (MCI) staffers spotted a drone hovering over the facility around 2 AM. Jailers were suspicious that the drone was possibly delivering a package to the rooftop of one of the inmate housing facilities. Investigators subsequently recovered the drone's cargo--a package containing tobacco and cell phones. The drone, a Matrice 600 outfitted with a payload release mechanism, was later destroyed when it was somehow struck by a car traveling near the prison entrance. After spotting a Chevrolet Silverado driving slowly near the lockup, prison personnel questioned the truck's passengers, Kerr and Didiano. Kerr quickly confessed that she had been piloting the drone via an iPad, adding that she purchased the drone on eBay and practiced flying it several times at home before coming to MCI to deliver contraband. Didiano, who drove the truck, admitted that the duo came to the prison to deliver a package...via the drone. Kerr and Didiano live in Tampa, 170 miles west of MCI, which houses 1500 male inmates. One of whom--at the time of the drone incident--was Andres Correa, a former Tampa resident serving a 25-year sentence. In 2004, a Hillsborough County jury convicted Correa of three counts of armed robbery. He is scheduled to be released from custody in August 2026. Kerr admitted that the tobacco and cell phones were intended for Correa, with whom she had communicated about the aerial contraband delivery. Police identified Correa as Kerr's spouse, a union that apparently occurred after Correa's incarceration. While Correa has not been charged in connection with the contraband scheme, he was transferred from MCI a month after Kerr and Didiano were collared. He now resides at the Apalachee Correctional Institution in the Florida Panhandle, 320 miles from Tampa (and 425 miles from the county jail his kin will soon call home).  
 From: Renee Re: Yahoo mail problems  Dear Webby I have the same problem as Brian's tech support question), which happened just a couple weeks ago. The page I receive is blank. I have to click your link in the right column to get your humor letter. Could you also send me a referral to gmail? What is gmail? I love your humor letter. Thank you for all your hard work in putting it together for us to enjoy. Thank you and have a happy day, Renee  Dear Renee Gmail (Google Mail) is mail run by Google, instead of by the the silly yahoos (Yuppie Artsy Hebrew Oddball Opportunists). Like everything at Google, gmail works reliably and predictably. You can use gmail as WebMail, or you can use it with professional POP email programs like Eudora, Thunderbird, Pegasus, or semi- professional POP programs like Outlook, Outlook Express, etc. You can continue to use Yahoo for cybersex, groups or whatever you use it for. You will just have a new and additional email address, and a mail system that works reliably and predictably. Gmail is at http://gmail.com Have FUN! DearWebby

 While in college, I took a telephone-solicitation job in the evenings, starting at six o'clock. On my very first call, I reached a woman who said she was busy, but would call me back later. "I'm so sorry," I said, "but we're not allowed to take incoming calls." "Don't worry, dear," she replied. "Just give me your home phone number and the time you have dinner."

 The politician was sitting at his campaign headquarters when the phone rang. He listened intently, and after a moment his face brightened. When he hung up, he immediately phoned his mother to tell her the good news. "Ma," he shouted, "the results are in. I won the election!" "Honestly?" The politician's smiled faded. "Aw, Ma, why bring that up at a time like this?" ___________________________________________________  Daily tip from Thriftyfun.com Thriftyfun.com Rolling Existing Car Loans Into a New Car Purchase Don't buy a new car if you haven't paid off your old one, unless you have equity accumulated. Dealers roll the existing loan into the new car financing, owing more than the car is worth.
