The last guest was sleeping at his table. The cleaning lady, irritated that she was delayed in doing her job, turned to the restaurant owner. "I've seen you shake the old fool and wake him up five times," she said. "Why don't you make him go home?" "No way !" answered the owner cheerfully. "Every time I wake him up, he asks for his bill and pays it! You go on home. I'll clean his table."

The following night, after spending hours poring over stubs and figures, Cindy said proudly, "I've done it! I made it balance!" Impressed, Mike came over to take a look. "Let's see... mortgage 550.00, electricity 70.50, phone 35.00." His brow wrinkled as he read the last entry. "It says here ESP, $615. What the heck is that?" "Oh," she said, "That means, Error Some Place!" ______________________________________________________ Millie's kindergarten-aged daughter suddenly announced just before school that she needed to take a clean tee shirt to class. She told Moe that the teacher was going to iron an anti-drug message on it. Millie frantically swept through their daughter's room, finding nothing usable but one tee shirt that already had something printed on one side. She sent it off to school with their daughter. That afternoon, the daughter returned and happily showed off her shirt. On one side it said, "Families are Forever." And on the other, "Be Smart, Don't Start." ______________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________ If you like the Dear Webby Daily Humor Letter, please vote for it at the Ezine Finder: Thanks for your votes! ______________________________________________________ An INTERNATIONAL BONEHEAD AWARD has been earned by Charles J. Trione, 27, Caseyville, Illinois 27 year old grandson beats his 78 year old grandfather with his own cane. Police say a 78-year-old Caseyville man was beaten with his own cane, by his grandson, during an argument over who ate the last of the leftover pizza. St. Clair County prosecutors on Friday charged Charles J. Trione, 27, with aggravted battery and domestic battery. Caseyville Police Sgt. Gerard Spratt gave the following account: Police were called to the 300 block of Bethel Mine Road on the night of June 30 for a report of a domestic disturbance. The disturbance was over who ate the last of the pizza in the refrigerator at the house, Spratt said. He said Trione pushed his grandfather to the floor in the kitchen and then beat him with the grandfathers cane. When police arrived, the suspect was gone. The 78-year-old had head injuries which were not life-threatening. Caseyville Police and St. Clair County sheriffs deputies located Trione on Wednesday in Caseyville. The case was turned over to the states attorneys office. Bail for Trione was set at $75,000, and he remained in custody as of Saturday at the St. Clair County Jail. ______________________________________________________ Tech Support Pits From: Fanny RE: Carry data Dear Webby, I'm a teacher and will be at a different school this fall. At this school I get to ride the school bus, as long as I carry a big wooden spoon and keep the riots on the bus under control. I'm sure it won't be that bad, but they definitely advised that I don't carry my laptop along. I used the laptop mostly to carry the data between the school computer and my home machine. What would you recommend for carrying my preparations and homework between home and school ? Fanny Dear Fanny The most civilized way would be to get yourself a little web site, upload the day's data to there before you leave home, and download it into the school machine when you get there. All you "carry" is your password. Second best is to get an SD card and a reader. The reader just plugs into a USB port and makes the flash card another drive. Flash cards come from 2 to 128 GB They are small enough that you can sew a little pocket for one onto the inside of a regular belt. If you have a belt with little pockets for parking meter change, that will do just fine. The readers are between $9 and $20, depending on options. The $9 kind that I use works just fine. You can leave those attached to the computers and only take the little flash card along. With 2 GB you can easily fit a year's data onto it, and run your applications using the data right on the flash card. No need to copy it to the computer first. Of course, the first time you forget to take the memory card along you will wish you had gone with the option I mentioned first. Depending on how good YOUR memory is, you might find it easier to pay $2.50 a month for commercial grade web space. Have FUN!

I bought a beautiful white sweater at a yard sale. The challenge though was the sweater had large yellow armpit stains. I got all sorts of advice, use OXI, use vinegar, use lemon juice, use baking soda; they all failed. Then someone said use what "caused the stain". Hmmmmm, deodorant. I used a stick of solid white deodorant and rubbed it thickly into both sides inside and out. Let it sit in cold water overnight. Washed as normal the next morning and Wha- La! Beautiful white sweater that looks like new! ______________________________________________________ Ophelia Dingbatter's News No sermon and not suitable for church, just jokes and fun for grownups.
