"I'm going to describe something to you. Let's see if you can guess what it is. First: I'm furry with a bushy tail and I like to climb trees." The children looked at her blankly. "I also like to eat nuts, especially acorns." No response. This wasn't going well at all! Finally a kid volunteered: "Well, I know the answer has to be Jesus -- but it sure sounds like a squirrel to me!" ____________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________ A mother and a daughter are shopping in the mall, when the mother eyes an expensive mink fur coat. "This year," she says, "I think that I will buy my present instead of making you and dad shop for me." The daughter protests, "But mom, some helpless, poor creature has to suffer so that you can have this." Don't worry honey," says the mother, "your father won't get the bill till a month after Mothers Day." __________________________________________________ An INTERNATIONAL BONEHEAD AWARD has been earned by Peter Nail, 37, Great Bend, Kansas, USA Great Bend man arrested for soliciting teen for sex A Great Bend man is in jail after being arrested for soliciting sex from a 15-year-old girl. Peter Nail was arrested Saturday. Great Bend police met with members of "MotorCity Justice" in reference to a tip that a man was going to pick up a girl at a location in Great Bend. Police said Nail, 37, drove to the location and was arrested on charges of sexual exploitation of a child, indecent solicitation of a child and electronic solicitation. He's being held on a $1 million bond. MotorCity Justice and police said Nail communicated through an online chat. MotorCity Justice said their mission is to "educate parents on the issue of online predators also to expose people that want to meet with children." DearWebby's Tech Support Pits From:Fiona Re: USB drives Dear Webby How do those USB drives work? Does it increase the cable salad? Fiona Dear Fiona USB hard drives plug into any USB port on any PC. Whenever you plug in the USB drive, it simply shows up as another harddrive. On older machines, that external USB drive will be the fastest drive. Yes, it will increase the cable salad. You can put the drive close to the computer and fold up the cable and tame it with some tape or rubber band. Have Fun! DearWebby A couple had a fatal car accident on their way to get married. The couple found themselves sitting outside Heaven's Gate waiting on St. Peter to do an intake. While waiting, they wondered if they could possibly get married in Heaven. Saint Peter showed up and they asked him. Peter said, "I don't know, this is the first time anyone has asked. Let me go find out." and he left. The couple sat and waited for an answer ... for two months ... and they began to wonder if they really should get married in Heaven, what with the eternal aspect of it all. "What if it doesn't work?" they wondered, "Are we stuck together forever?" Peter returned after yet another month, looking somewhat bedraggled. "Yes," he informed the couple, "you can get married in Heaven." "Great," said the couple, "but what if things don't work out? Could we also get a divorce in Heaven?" St. Peter, red-faced, slammed his clipboard onto the ground. "What's wrong?" asked the frightened couple. "GET REAL !" St Peter shouted, "it took me three months to find a priest up here! Do you have any idea how long it would take me to find two lawyers and a judge?" | If you can help with the cost of the Humor Letter, please donate what you can! | If you like my work,

_____________________________________________ According to a new study from Italy, some women are actually able to hear with their breasts. That of course is great for Italian men, because they talk with their hands anyway. ____________________________________________ A theologian and an astronomer were talking together one day. The astronomer said that after reading widely in the field of religion, he had concluded that all religion could be summed up in a single phrase. "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you," he said, with a bit of smugness, knowing that his field is so much more complex. After a brief pause, the theologian replied that after reading widely in the area of astronomy he had concluded that all of it could be summed up in a single phrase also. "Oh, and what is that?" the astronaut inquired. "Twinkle, twinkle, little star; how I wonder what you are!" ____________________________________________ Tom had this problem of getting up late in the morning and was always late for work. His boss was mad at him and threatened to fire him if he didn't do something about it. So Tom went to his doctor who gave him a pill and told him to take it before he went to bed. Tom slept well and in fact beat the alarm in the morning. He had a leisurely breakfast and cheerfully drove to work on the scenic route. "Boss," he said, "The pill actually worked!" "That's nice" said the boss. "But where were you yesterday?" ____________________________________________ | Ophelia Dingbatter's NewsNo sermon and not suitable for church, just jokes and fun for grownups.
