After explaining the commandment to 'Honor thy father and thy mother,' she asked, 'Is there a commandment that teaches us how to treat our brothers and sisters?'

Thanks for your votes! ___________________________________________________ An INTERNATIONAL BONEHEAD AWARD has been earned by Lillian Shantel Tarver, 27, Garden City, Georgia r Georgia woman held up Mcdonalds after accusing them of serving fries that were not hot A McDonald's customer who complained that her french fries were cold fired a gunshot into the floor of a Georgia restaurant and then led cops on a car chase before being apprehended, according to investigators. Lillian Shantel Tarver, 27, yesterday afternoon ordered food from the McDonald's in Garden City, a Savannah suburb. But Tarver, seen at right, was not happy with her meal since, she said, the french fries were not hot. Tarver, who had a gun in her hand, demanded a refund. As a worker went to retrieve a new order of fries, the McDonald's owner opened a cash register and told the armed Tarver to take what she wanted. After allegedly grabbing some cash from the register, Tarver fired a round into the kitchen floor and fled the McDonald's. After a short pursuit, Tarver was arrested by Garden City Police Department officers. Tarver was charged with multiple felonies, including armed robbery, aggravated assault, fleeing police, and firearms possession. She also faces reckless conduct, battery, aggressive driving, and reckless driving counts. Bond has not been set for Tarver, who is locked up in the Chatham County jail. Tarver's rap sheet includes arrests in Florida's Miami-Dade county for theft, marijuana possession, and criminal mischief. DearWebby's Tech Support Pits From: Patti Re: Registry fixer Dear Webby, today I went looking thru your Tools page to find a good registry cleaner because I trust your recommendations wholeheartedly and have always been pleased with your advice. However, I was unable to find a tool for cleaning the registry.(Maybe I overlooked it, I'm OLD ya know!LOL) I have Registry Defender right now...trouble is they will only fix 20 at a time and according to them I have about a thousand that need fixing. Can you recommend a good one? Even if it's not free that's ok. I'm really worried that this problem could do some damage to my pc. Thanks in advance, Patti Dear Patti Almost all registry cleaners are just a crooked rip-off. Especially, when they claim that you have hudreds or thousands of registry errors.Your machine would not run if you had that many registry errors. Crap Cleaner and Spyware search and Destroy have registry cleaners included, and the old versions are all free. Have FUN! DearWebby Automatically move ALL your settings and programs.

Love is one long sweet dream, and marriage is the alarm clock. They say that when a man holds a woman's hand before marriage, it is love; after marriage it is self-defense. When a newly married man looks happy, we know why. But when a ten-year married man looks happy, we wonder why. There was this lover who said that he would go through hell for her. They got married, and now he is going through HELL. When a man says it's a silly, childish game, it's probably something his wife can beat him at. (Epperson's law) Honeymoon: A short period of doting between dating and debting. (Ray Bandy) If you are afraid of loneliness, don't marry. (Chekhov) Love is the answer, but while you're waiting for the answer, sex raises some pretty good questions. (Woody Allen) Once a boy becomes a man, he's a man all his life. But a woman is only sexy until she becomes your wife. (Al Bundy) If variety is the spice of life, marriage is the big can of leftover Spam. ( Johnny Carson) Insurance is like marriage. You pay, pay, pay, and you never get anything back. (Al Bundy) An archaeologist is the best husband a woman can have; the older she gets the more interested he is in her. (Agatha Christie) ___________________________________________________ Thanks to Roland for this story: Case Closed Several women appeared in court, each accusing the others of causing the trouble they were having in the apartment building where they lived. The women were arguing noisily even in the court. The judge, banging his gavel to quiet them, said, "We are going to do this in an orderly manner. I can't listen to all of you at once. I'll hear the oldest first." The case was dismissed for lack of testimony. ___________________________________________________ Here is a cute classic that brings a smile every time: The boss of a big company needed to call one of his employees about an urgent problem with one of the main computers. He dialed the employees home phone number and was greeted with a child's whispered, "Hello?" Feeling put out at the inconvenience of having to talk to a youngster the boss asked, Is your Daddy home? "Yes", whispered the small voice. "May I talk with him?" the man asked. To the surprise of the boss, the small voice whispered, "No." Wanting to talk with an adult, the boss asked, "Is your Mommy there?" "Yes", came the answer. "May I talk with her?" Again the small voice whispered, "no." Knowing that it was not likely that a young child would be left home alone, the boss decided he would just leave a message with the person who should be there watching over the child. "Is there any one there besides you?" the boss asked the child. "Yes" whispered the child, "A policeman. Wondering what a cop would be doing at his employee's home, the boss asked, "May I speak with the policeman?" "No, he's busy", whispered the child. "Busy doing what? asked the boss. "Talking to Daddy and Mommy and the Fireman," came the whispered answer. Growing concerned and even worried as he heard what sounded like a helicopter through the ear piece on the phone the boss asked, "What is that noise?" "A hello-copper", answered the whispering voice. "What is going on there?" asked the boss, now alarmed. In an awed whispering voice the child answered, "The search team just landed the hello-copper." Alarmed, concerned and more than just a little frustrated the boss asked, "Why are they there? Still whispering, the young voice replied along with a muffled giggle: "They're looking for me." __________________________________________________ Ophelia Dingbatter's NewsNo sermon and not suitable for church, just jokes and fun for grownups.
