Today's Bonehead Award: Delaware Daycare worker, 19, charged with infant's murder _______________________________________________ If you like the Humor Letter, please vote! _______________________________________________ Pay no attention to what the critics say... Remember, a statue has never been set up in honor of a critic! --- Jean Sibelius (1865 - 1957) There was a time when we expected nothing of our children but obedience, as opposed to the present, when we expect everything of them but obedience. --- Anatole Broyard What luck for rulers that men do not think. --- Adolf Hitler, Broom Hilda, Petunia _______________________________________________ At one game, a lady kept up a steady flow of threats at the umpire. No matter what was happening on the field, she kept yelling, "Kill the umpire!" This went on for an hour. Another patron said, "Lady, the umpire hasn't done anything wrong." The woman said, "He`s my husband and he came home last night with lipstick on his collar. KILL the umpire!!" ________________________________________________` _____________________________________________________ If you like the Humor Letter, please vote!

Ferguson, 19, Bear, Delaware Delaware Daycare worker, 19, charged with infant's murder Authorities in Delaware have charged a 19-year-old woman with murder in the death of a 4-month-old infant who was under her care at a day care facility. Police and emergency medical services responded to the Little People Child Development Center on the 3800 block of Wrangle Road in Bear around 10:30 a.m. Thursday. Officers found a 4-month-old child unresponsive and transported the infant girl to Christiana Hospital where she was later pronounced dead. Investigators say Dejoynay M. Ferguson was the assigned caregiver of the victim in the facility's infant room. According to police, Ferguson placed her hands over the infant's mouth and nose and intentionally restricted her breathing until she became unresponsive. Once the child was unresponsive, Ferguson allegedly placed the child back into a crib and waited 20 minutes to advise the facility's owner that the infant was unresponsive. The owner then called 911. Ferguson has been charged with one count of first-degree murder, and arraigned. Bail was set at $1 million cash. As a result of this investigation, the Office of Childcare Licensing has suspended the license of the center indefinitely. DearWebby's Tech Support Pits From: Jaques Re: Yahoo Tool Bar Dear Webby, Hello again: Sorry to impose on you again but my problems are many. My latest is that I agreed to a Java Console update and I must have clicked on "yes" instead of "no" at some point in the installation because I find that I have been "blessed" with a "YAHOO" toolbar. I remembered thaa a short while back, someone else had a problem with this and even managed to find the issue, and so I tried your suggestions... Dear Jaques Look at the top of the browser for an icon that looks like a pen. In that one, there should be an option to remove the Yahoo bar. Have FUN! DearWebby Automatically move ALL your settings and programs. By chance, John Smith in Fresno witnessed a mugging. About an hour later, the cops arrived, and the officer in charge asked the witness his name. "John Smith," John told him. "Cut the funny business," the cop barked sharply. "What's your real name?" "All right," said John, "put me down as Albert Einstein." "That's more like it," said the man in blue. "You can't fool ME with that Smith stuff." | If you can help with the cost of the Humor Letter, please donate what you can! | |

___________________________________________________ Thanks to Sandie for this classic: A man went on a ski trip and was knocked unconscious by the chair lift. He called his insurance company from the hospital, but it refused to cover his injury. "Why is the injury not covered?" he asked. "You got hit in the head by a chair lift," the insurance rep said. "That makes you an idiot and we consider that a pre-existing condition." ___________________________________________________ Thanks to Jai for this one: A Man was walking down a street when he heard a voice from behind, "If you take one more step, a brick will fall down on your head and kill you." The man stopped and a big brick fell right in front of him.. The man was astonished. He went on, and after a while he was going to cross the road. Once again the voice shouted, "Stop! Stand still! If you take one more step a car will run over you, and you will die." The man did as he was instructed, just as a car came careening around the corner, barely missing him. The man asked. "Who are you?" "I am your guardian angel," the voice answered. "Oh, yeah?" the man asked "And where the heck were you when I got married?" ___________________________________________________ At the company water cooler, the office braggart was boring his fellow workers as usual. His topic of the day was about his children's world travels: one son was teaching in Bolivia, another working in southern Italy. Then he told everyone that his daughter was working on a year's research project in India. "What is it about you," a co-worker finally asked, "that makes your kids want to get so far away from you ?" __________________________________________________ | Ophelia Dingbatter's NewsNo sermon and not suitable for church, just jokes and fun for grownups.
