Being only five feet tall, I had to stretch, but still couldn't grab the box. Fortunately, I have two six-foot-tall sons whom I often call to come to my rescue. "Hey, Brian!" I yelled to my second son, who was in the living room. "Will you get your tallness in here and get this for me?" "Sure, Mom," he remarked as he bounded into the kitchen. "But next time, I'd prefer the title, 'Your Highness'." _____________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________ Billie, Do, Janet and Bo Derek were all traveling somewhere in the same train compartment. After several minutes of the trip, the train passed through a dark tunnel and the unmistakable sound of a slap is heard. When the train emerged from the tunnel, Billie had a big red hand print on his cheek. Janet thought: "That dirt-bag Billie laid his hands on Bo Derek and she slapped him." Bo Derek thought: "I bet that sleazy Bilie tried to touch me, but put his hand on Janet by mistake . . . and she slapped him." Billie thought: "Do must have put a hand on Bo Derek and she slapped me by mistake." Do thought: "I hope we go through another tunnel soon, so I can smack Billie again." ______________________________________________________ How reliable a witness are you?

Stacy Horton-Garcia is suspected of entering a house through an unlocked door in the area of 91st and Peoria avenues around 3 p.m. on July 11, allegedly to steal the homeowner's clothes from his closet, authorities said. A surveillance photo captured her cooking food naked inside the home, police said. She also allegedly took a shower before the homeowner returned. Surveillance video showed her running from the house with the homeowner's belongings, which she dropped outside, police said. Horton-Garcia was later arrested. Police said she told them she was going to her boyfriend's house and accidentally went to the wrong home. Horton- Garcia said her boyfriend's name was Mike but she didn't know his last name. She said she only met him a few days prior at a Circle K in the area. Horton-Garcia was booked on suspicion of second-degree burglary and first-degree criminal trespassing. _________________________________ Tech Support Pits From: RJR Re: eml Dear Webby, When I try to open certain emails that have the extension .eml I am getting the error box that says "this file does not have a program associated with it...etc." and to create one under settings, folder options. When I check there I do see EML already listed. Does this have something to do with AOL sent emails? I recently removed Earthlink Total Access, which is when I began seeing this error. Thanks for any ideas. Have a happy Thanksgiving. R. J. Dear RJ That's just a virus masquerading as an Outlook Depressed message. That is why some of us have called Outlook Depressed a "Virus Magnet" for many years. It opens that stuff! Turn on the settings for showing all extensions, even known ones, and for showing all hidden files. Probably that file was actually something like "password.eml.exe" but the second extension was hidden. Have FUN! DearWebby The year is 2025 and the United States of America has recently elected the first woman as well as an openly Jewish President, a Susan Vineberg. So the President elect calls up her mother a few weeks after election day and says, "So ma, I assume you will be coming to my inauguration?" "I don't think so. It's a ten hour drive, and your father isn't as young as he used to be, and my gout is acting up again." "Don't worry about it Mom, I'll send Air Force One to pick you up and take you home. And a limousine will pick you up at your door." "I don't know. Everybody will be so fancy, I don't know what on Earth I would wear." "Oh mom," replies Susan, "don't worry about it. I'll make sure you have a wonderful gown by Christian Day." "Honey," Mom complains, "you know I can't eat those rich foods you and your friends like to eat." The President-to-be responds, "Don't worry Mom. The entire affair is going to be handled by the best caterer in New York, kosher all the way. Mom, I want you to come." So Mom agrees and on January 21, 2025, Susan Vineberg is being sworn in as President of the United States of America. In the front row sits the new President's mother, who leans over to a Senator sitting next to her and says, "You see that woman over there with her hand on the Bible, becoming President of the United States?" The Senator whispers back, "Yes I do." "Her brother's a doctor." | If you can help with the cost of the Humor Letter, please donate what you can! | |

____________________________________________________ Thanks to Cookie for this report: DUBLIN, Ireland - A nursing home in Ireland has hit on a cheering way to keep up the spirits of its elderly patients -- by providing its own pub. St Mary's Hospital in County Monaghan, near the Irish border with Northern Ireland, believes ready access to a good pint may help its patients -- average age 85 -- actually live longer. We would say the whole social aspect of life does extend the years -- it means the patients aren't bored to death, Rose Mooney, assistant director of nursing told Reuters. The pub, which opens at 11 a.m. and closes at 9 p.m. and charges normal bar prices, had also led to an increase in the number of visitors, she said. Having its own bar made the hospital, which has around 140 patients, unique in Ireland, she added. ___________________________________________________ | | These wood sculptures look good enough to eat! |

We have: Work out Barbie for $19.95 Shopping Barbie for $19.95 Beach Barbie for $19.95 Disco Barbie for $19.95 Divorced Barbie for $265.95". The amazed father asks: "What? Why is the Divorced Barbie $265.95 and all the others only $19.95?" The salesperson annoyingly answers : "Sir..., "Divorced Barbie comes with: Ken's Car, Ken's House, Ken's Boat, Ken's Furniture, Ken's Computer and...

____________________________________________________ Some guy bought a new fridge for his house. To get rid of his old fridge, he put it in his front yard and hung a sign on it saying: "Free to good home. You want it, you take it". For three days the fridge sat there without even one person looking twice at it. He eventually decided that people were too un-trusting of this deal. It looked to good to be true, so he changed the sign to read: "Fridge for sale $75". The next day someone stole it. ____________________________________________________ | Today, on July 21, in 1831 Belgium became independent as Leopold I was proclaimed King of the Belgians. 1861 The first major battle of the U.S. Civil War began.
