Thanks for your votes! ___________________________________________________ An INTERNATIONAL BONEHEAD AWARD has been earned by Cassandra Medina-Hernandez, 38, Jefferson, Oregon Oregon woman, 38, charged with putting drug in her co-workers's grub An Oregon felon allegedly placed methamphetamine into bean dip that she served to co-workers at a Thriftway supermarket, according to cops who arrested the woman on multiple criminal counts. Police charge that Cassandra Medina-Hernandez, 38, provided the spiked bean dip to a woman who fell ill after consuming it. Upon being treated at a hospital, the victim learned the bean dip may have contained methamphetamine, according to the Marion County Sheriff's Office. The 27-year-old victim told cops that Medina-Hernandez, who was working in the store's deli department, provided her with the bean dip, a probable cause affidavit states. A fellow Thriftway employee told police that Medina-Hernandez told her about placing drugs inside the victim's food. A second worker told investigators that Cassandra had messaged her to claim that placing the methamphetamine in the food was an accident. After opening a criminal probe earlier this month, investigators determined that at least one other employee had consumed bean dip from the same dish that was believed to have been contaminated. Deputies yesterday arrested Medina-Hernandez on several charges, including unlawful delivery of methamphetamine and recklessly endangering another person. Investigators said they have no reason to believe customers were served contaminated food at the supermarket in Jefferson, a city about 15 miles south of Salem. Pictured above, Medina-Hernandez is being held in the Marion County jail in lieu of $520,000 bail. Medina-Hernandez's rap sheet includes convictions for assault; robbery; identity theft; delivery of methamphetamine; theft; possession of methamphetamine; and felon in possession of a restricted weapon. When Medina-Hernandez was sentenced in 2015 on robbery and assault convictions--for which she received state prison time and a two-year probation term--a judge found her to be an alcoholic or drug-dependent person and ordered her placement in a treatment program. DearWebby's Tech Support Pits From: From Mary Re: Microsoft Bug Fixes Dr.Webby I believe everything I read from you but I am a fairly new subscriber. Do I have to install all the stuff from Microsoft? I mean come on everyday or so they are putting all kinds of stuff on for me to download or they are installing something. Ever since this started my computer is getting slower every day. Thanks very much, Mary Dear Mary Microsoft bug fixes are normally just on the second Tuesday every month. If you see more update requests acting like they were from Microsoft, then they are phony. MalwareBytes and McAfee and other anti-virus companies update their virus detection lists more frequently, sometimes more than once a day, if new viruses come out. However, they don't pretend to be from Microsoft and tell you that it is a McAfee update, and they don't disrupt your work. If you get daily update requests pretending to be from Microsoft, then either a big update did not get completed because of a poor or slow connection, or it is phony. Run a GOOD anti-virus program like Malwarebytes, and an Anti-Spyware program like Spybot-Search&Destroy, to see if your computer has been infected and is under control by you or somebody else Have FUN! DearWebby Automatically move ALL your settings and programs. As a veterinarian, I was called at home in the middle of the night by a woman in distress. She had swallowed her dog's heart worm pill by mistake. I knew it wouldn't harm her, but by law, I'm forbidden to give medical advice. "If your dog had swallowed your pill, then you'd call me," I explained. "In this case, you really should consult with your own physician." "But it's one in the morning!" she exclaimed. "I can't wake my doctor." | If you can help with the cost of the Humor Letter, please donate what you can! | |
Jill was discussing the various aspects and possible outcome of the Insurance policy with the man at the Insurance Agency. During the discussion, she asked, "Suppose I take the life insurance for my husband today and tomorrow he dies? What will I get?" The agent eyed her suspiciously and replied, "Probably 10 to life." ___________________________________________________ Daily tip from Thriftyfun.com Thriftyfun.com font color="#009990"> Table Salt for Car Windows If you sprinkle table salt on your windshield, it will defrost faster and make stubborn ice easier to scrape off. thriftyfun.Com ____________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________ How does Ruth like being pregnant?"

He became something of a local joke when a newspaper began keeping a record of his predictions and showed that he'd been wrong almost three hundred times in a single year. That kind of notoriety was enough to get him fired. He moved to another part of the country and applied for a similar job. One blank on the job application called for the reason for leaving his previous position. Hopkins wrote, "The climate didn't agree with me." __________________________________________________ | Ophelia Dingbatter's NewsNo sermon and not suitable for church, just jokes and fun for grownups.
