 _____________________________________________________ Whenever you have an efficient government you have a dictatorship. --- Harry S Truman (1884 - 1972) _____________________________________________________ Sadie had been widowed for a few years and very lonely, and finally consented to going out on a date with Morris, the gentleman her daughter fixed her up with. Morris picked her up her they went on a picnic in a very secluded spot. Morris also had been widowed for a long time and found himself very attracted to Sadie, and despite her resistance at first to his advances, he finally was able to make love to her. Sadie was mortified at her lack of self control and sobbed "I don't know how I can face my daughter, knowing in a time of weakness, I sinned twice!" Morris said "What do you mean "twice" we only did it once?" Sadie looked at Morris and said, "...Well, you're going to do it again, aren't you?" __________________________________________   __________________________________________ As the manager of our hospital's softball team, I was responsible for returning equipment to the proper owners at the end of the season... When I walked into the surgery department carrying a bat that belonged to one of the surgeons, I passed several patients and their families in a waiting area. "Look, honey," one man said to his wife. "Here comes your anesthesiologist." ___________________________________________________   An INTERNATIONAL BONEHEAD AWARD has been earned by  Mark Alan Johnson, 67, Rice Lake, Wisconsin, USA 
 Prison For Man With 15 Drunk Driving Offenses 
 A Wisconsin man has been ordered to serve five years in state prison following what investigators say was his 15th drunk driving offense. During a hearing conducted Wednesday via Zoom, Mark Alan Johnson, 67, was sentenced in connection with his guilty plea to a felony operating while intoxicated count. Pictured above, Johnson was arrested last November for OWI after driving his pickup truck into a ditch at an intersection near his home in Rice Lake, a northern Wisconsin city. Johnson, whose license had been revoked at the time of the one-vehicle crash, has been locked up in the Barron County jail since his arrest. Johnson, whose drunk driving collars have come in Wisconsin and neighboring Minnesota, is eligible for the Substance Abuse Program after serving 4 years initial confinement, according to a sentencing order. Johnson's blood alcohol content was measured at nearly twice the legal .08 limit. He told cops he had only consumed two glasses of wine and a can of beer before the crash. In a May 18 sentencing memorandum, Johnsons lawyer described his client as a likable, down-to-earth, blue- collar man who has spent most of his life engaging in hands-on road construction and mechanical work. Johnsons downfall, attorney Renee Taber wrote, is that he is an alcoholic. Taber, who noted that Johnsons most recent OWI conviction was in 2005, wrote that her clients relapse from sobriety came a month after his mothers death. While prosecutors contended that Johnsons rap sheet included 14 prior drunk driving offenses, Taber wrote that the defense is stipulating that the defendant has nine prior offenses. Upon his release from custody, Johnson will be placed on probation for five years.  DeaWebby's Tech Support Pits  From: Re:   Dear Webby,  Dear Have FUN! DearWebby

 A nice man walks past a house and sees three girls sitting on their front porch. He stops and says to the first little girl, "Hello little girl, what's your name?" She replies, "My name is Petal, because when my mother was pregnant with me, a petal landed on her tummy." The man said, "That's so sweet!" To the next girl he asks, "Little girl, what's your name?" The girls says, "My name is Feather, because when my mother was pregnant with me, a feather landed on her tummy." He again praises the cute young girl. The man looks to the third girl who seems very dazed with her eyes to the sky and her mouth open wide drooling. He says as kindly as he can, "And you little girl, what's your name?" The girl replies in a very drawled out tone, "mayyyy nayyyme uzzzz peyannnno." _____________________________________________ An elderly woman went into the doctor's office. When the doctor asked why she was there, she replied, "I'd like to have some birth-control pills." Taken back, the doctor thought for a minute and then said, "Excuse me, Mrs. Smith, but you're 72 years old. What possible use could you have for birth control pills?" The woman responded, "They help me sleep better." The doctor thought some more and continued, "How in the world do birth control pills help you to sleep?" The woman said, "Simple, I put them in my granddaughter's orange juice every morning and I sleep much better at night." _____________________________________________ Women only have two complaints: Nothing to wear, and not enough closet space for it. ____________________________________________ A guy goes up to this girl in a bar and says, "Would you like to dance?" The girl says, "I don't like this song, but even if I did, I wouldn't dance with you." The guy says, "I'm sorry, you must have misunderstood me. I said, ' you look fat in those pants.'!"
