L. Mencken (1880 - 1956) Life is a moderately good play with a badly written third act. --- Truman Capote (1924 - 1984) ____________________________________________________ A man was giving a speech at his lodge meeting. He got a bit carried away and talked for two hours. Finally, he realized what he had done and said, "I'm sorry I talked so long. I left my watch at home." A voice from the back of the room replied, There's a calendar behind you. ____________________________________________________ This guy says to his buddy, "You'll never believe what happened last night." His buddy says, "Well then, tell me what happened." The guy says, "Last night the doorbell rang, and when I opened the door, there was my ex-mother-in-law on the front porch." She said, "Can I stay here for a few days?" So I said, "Of course, you can stay there," and shut the door." ____________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________ At a paternity trial, the lawyer asked, "On the night of July 16th last, at approximately 11:45 p.m., in the locale known generally as 'Lover's Lane' did the defendant have sexual relations with you?" "Yes," whispered the girl, her head bowed. "And did the defendant on that occasion, to the best of your knowledge, have a climax?" the lawyer continued. "Oh no," she replied, "I'm pretty sure he had a red Camaro." ____________________________________________________ An INTERNATIONAL BONEHEAD AWARD has been earned by Casey Quoka, 24, Largo, Florida, USA Mom busted for coke on Dr Zeuss book and "significant" bruising on her 3 year old son A Florida Woman is facing a felony child neglect charge after police found cocaine and a cut straw atop her three-year-old sons copy of Dr. Seusss The Cat in the Hat, records show. Casey Quoka, 24, was arrested Wednesday evening after police found narcotics in her residence in Largo, a city in the Tampa Bay area. Along with the bump of suspected cocaine, cops seized marijuana and a baggie of pills suspected to be MDMA. The drugs were easily accessible to Quokas child, according to a criminal complaint. Quoka was also charged with felony child abuse for leaving her son with significant bruising as a result of corporal punishment that allegedly exceeded the accepted level of force. Pictured above, Quoka could also face drug charges after lab tests are performed on the items confiscated from her home. Quoka, who works as a bartender at Applebees, was booked into jail on the two criminal counts. She was freed from custody last night after posting $4000 bond. DearWebby's Tech Support Pits From: Ruth Re: Ad Blocker Dear Webby When the postcards weree still popular, you used to run ads. Nowadays you just have useful information. So it should be safe to ask you what is a good adblocker. I use Chrome. Thanks Ruth Dear Ruth Nowadays Adblock Plus seems to be a good choice. It installs into Chrome without hassle, blocks just about anything. One item I have trouble with, that is the OneSignal push video. It seems harmless, just a small video for illiterate slobs, who don't want to read a page. It hogs the right bottom area and blocks stuff, that you want to read. It is not an ordinary ad, but a "plug-in" that is playing stupid and difficult to remove. Regular ads, though, are blocked qute nicely. Once in a while some page will whine about adbloc-plus, but I usually don't need that page badly enough to make an exceeption for it. I COULD do that, but normally can't be bothered. So, for now I am happy with AdbockPlus. Have FUN! DearWebby Wanting to be married, a couple came to the county courthouse in Virginia..They accidentally walked up to the offices where hunting licenses are sold. "We're from out-of-state," said the prospective groom. "Can we get a license?" The clerk replied, "No, not if you are fom-out-of state, but I can give you a three-day permit." | If you can help with the cost of the Humor Letter, please donate what you can! | If you like my work,

_____________________________________________ An American tourist refused to be too greatly impressed with the masterpieces at the Louvre. "We've got plenty of priceless canvasses in the United States too, he declared. "I know," said the guide. "Rembrandt painted seven hundred pictures in his lifetime, and America has at least ten thousand of each." ____________________________________________ A couple of women were playing golf one sunny Saturday morning. The first of the twosome teed off and watched in horror as her ball headed directly toward a foursome of men playing the next hole. The ball hit one of the men and he immediately clasped his hands together at his crotch, fell to the ground and proceeded to roll around in obvious agony. The woman rushed down to the man and immediately began to apologize. "Please allow me to help. I'm a physical therapist and I know I could relieve your pain if you'd allow me," she told him earnestly. "Ummph, oooh, noooo... I'll be fine in a few minutes", he replied breathlessly as he remained in the fetal position, still clasping his hands together at his crotch. But she persisted, and he finally allowed her to help him. She gently took his hands away and laid them to the side, she loosened his pants, and put her hands inside and began to massage him. She then asked him, "How does that feel?" He replied still in agony, "That feels great, but it doesn't do a thing for my thumb. The thumb still hurts like it was smashed!" ____________________________________________ Customer: I'm trying to connect to the Internet with your CD, but it just doesn't work. What am I doing wrong?
