 ___________________________________________________     An INTERNATIONAL BONEHEAD AWARD has been earned by  Courtney Backes, 32, Okaloosa Island, Floriduh  Shoplifter caught making topless getaway  A theft suspect who made her getaway on a bicycle was arrested last night when a sheriff's deputy spotted her riding topless down the middle of a Florida highway, police report. According to cops, a woman last night stole $19.99 flip flops and other merchandise from a clothing store on Okaloosa Island. A worker at Surfside Outfitters told investigators that the suspect placed one item into her bag and then walked out of the business wearing the stolen shoes around 7 PM. The employee, cops reported, said the shoplifter was last seen riding away, through the parking lot, on a bicycle. After the shoplifting episode, several callers to 911 reported that a woman was riding her bicycle erratically down the middle of Highway 98, a two-lane road that runs through the island. When a sheriff's deputy pulled alongside the bicycle, the rider was not wearing a shirt. When the cop asked the woman to pull over, she replied, Make me. In short order, the deputy pulled ahead of the rider and eventually wrestled her off the bicycle and took her into custody. The topless suspect was identified as Courtney Backes, 32. Seen in the above Instagram photo, Backes--who was found in possession of the stolen goods--was charged with retail theft and resisting arrest without violence, both misdemeanors. She was released from the county jail this morning on $1000 bond. According to her Facebook page, Backes, whose rap sheet includes a 2015 DUI conviction, works as a bartender at a Marriott hotel. 
 DearWebby's Tech Support Pits  From: Sharon Re: Difference between Wall Paper and Screen Saver  Dear Webby, By the way, is there a difference between screensavers & wallpapers or are they the same? Have a purrfect day, Sharon  Dear Sharon Wallpaper is what you see if your open programs are not covering the entire screen. It is actually a table cloth for the desktop, but Microsoft calls it wall paper. Nobody knows why. A screensaver is a program designed to amuse dust motes, attract nocturnal insects and use electricity. It is a hang-over from the days of the greenie monitors in the 70's and 80's, that used to burn the phosphor in the screen if you left them on with the DisplayWrite menu showing, while you went on maternity leave. When you came back a year later, it showed the menu even if you turned it off. To prevent that, we wrote screen savers that kept the screen moving. In the days before graphics, we made some silly text scroll endlessly, then from the mid 80's on we used some goofy ever changing graphics. Sceen savers became obsolete in 95, when you could set the power options to turn the monitor display off automatically, if you didn't use the computer for a certain amount of time. However, some people feel obliged to amuse the dust motes and nocturnal insects, and to use electricity. They still use screensavers. Personally, when I am not near the computer for longer than it takes to make a pot of coffee, I have the monitor set to turn off automatically. Have FUN! DearWebby

 Tom was a single guy living at home with his father and working in the family business. When he found out he was going to inherit a fortune once his sickly father died, he decided he needed a wife with which to share his fortune. One evening at an investment meeting he spotted the most beautiful woman he had ever seen. Her natural beauty took his breath away. "I may look like just an ordinary man," he said to her, "but in just a few months, my father will die, and I'll inherit 20 million dollars." Impressed, the woman obtained his business card. Three days later, she became his stepmother. Women are so much better at estate planning than men.

 ___________________________________________________ A paramedic was asked on a local TV talk-show program: "What was your most unusual and challenging 911 call?" "Recently we got a call from that big white church at 11th and Walnut," the paramedic said. "A frantic usher was very concerned that during the sermon an elderly man passed out in a pew and appeared to be dead. The usher could find no pulse and there was no noticeable breathing." "What was so unusual and demanding about this particular call?" the interviewer asked. "Well," the paramedic said, "we carried out eight guys before we found the one who was dead." ___________________________________________________ Dwayne, his wife, and Dwayne's mother-in-law went camping.
