She got me to stop drinking, smoking, running around at all hours of the night and more. She taught me how to dress well, enjoy the fine arts, gourmet cooking, classical music and how to invest in the stock market." "Sounds like you may be bitter because she spent so much time trying to change you." "I'm not bitter. Now that I'm so improved, she just isn't good enough for me." _____________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________ Do wanted to go to the zoo and pestered his parents for days. Finally his mother talked his reluctant father into taking him. "So how was it?" the mother asked when they returned home. "Great," Do replied. "Did you and your father have a good time?" asked mother. "Yeah, Daddy especially liked it," explained Do excitedly, "especially when one of the animals came racing home at 30 to 1!!!" ___________________________________________________ An INTERNATIONAL BONEHEAD AWARD has been earned by Rual Gonzalez, 27, Fresno, USA Man arrested for trying to steal $50,000 loader A 27-year-old man was arrested after deputies say he tried to steal a $50,000 tractor in Kings County on Sunday night. Sheriff's officials say Rual Gonzalez drove onto a property at Excelsior and 15th Avenues around 10 pm. The property owner discovered Gonzelez's car near an area of parked tractors and then found Gonzalez inside one of the tractor cabs. Officials say Gonzalez ran away, and he hid within bushes and trees on the property, causing challenges for the deputies who were called to search for him. A Kings County K9 and his deputy handler helped locate Gonzalez and bring him into custody. Gonzalez was taken to Adventist Medical Center in Hanford for treatment and was eventually released to be booked into the Kings County Jail for theft, trespassing and resisting arrest. DearWebby's Tech Support Pits From: Darla Re: Which Linux? DearWebby, I was delivering face masks to all the neighbors, and the cute senior four houses down was on his porch with his laptop. He decided to make a donation and invited me up to the porch. To make a long story short, he dazzled me with his machine and told me he was using Linux. I was impressed! When I get my tax refund I am going to buy a new computer, and will put Linux onto it. I don't know anything about Linux, except that there are many different "flavors". Which is the best one? Darla Dear Darla The best one is whatever the cute guy is using. Initially you will have all kinds of questions and will need some guidance. Discuss it with him. Linux is not difficult at all, just a bit different. Have FUN!

He loved money more than just about anything. Just before he died, he said to his wife. "Now listen. When I die, I want you to take all my money and put it in the casket with me. Because I want to take my money to the afterlife with me." And so he got his wife to promise him with all of her heart that when he died, she would put all of the money in the casket with him. Well one day he died. He was stretched out in the casket, the wife was sitting there in black, and her friend was sitting next to her. When they finished the ceremony, just before the undertakers got ready to close the casket, the wife said, "Wait just a minute!" She had a box with her, she came over with the box and put it in the casket. Then the undertakers locked the casket down, and they rolled it away. So her friend said, "Girl, I know you weren't fool enough to put all that money in there with that man." She said, "Listen, I'm a Christian, I can't lie. I promised him that I was gonna put that money in that casket with him." "You mean to tell me you put that money in the casket with the man?" "I sure did," said the wife. "I wrote him a check." _____________________________________________ * Kitchen closed - this chick (or dude?) has had it! * Martha Stewart doesn't live here!! * I'm creative; you can't expect me to be neat, too! * Ring Bell for Maid Service.

She had taken an interest in oil painting and I planned to purchase a beginner set of paints and brushes. My friend was at the cash register when I was checking out. I hadn't seen her for a few weeks and had started a diet in the meantime, having moderate success. She asked me if I had gotten thinner. I was thrilled that it showed already and replied that I had lost a few pounds. She rolled her eyes and said, "I meant paint thinner."
