Thanks for your votes! ______________________________________________________ An INTERNATIONAL BONEHEAD AWARD has been earned by Darren Bridges, 30, New Orleans, New Orleans Police Officer Murdered In Ambush A New Orleans police officer was fatally shot on Friday by Darren Bridges, a Convicted Felon. He was ambushed as he and his patrol team stepped out of their car to investigate something suspicious shortly after midnight. Other officers returned fire, wounding a suspect who eventually surrendered to a SWAT team, police said. Our officer collapsed right there on the scene and died at a hospital, Police Superintendent Michael Harrison told reporters at an early morning news conference. They were on routine patrol, he said. They saw something that aroused their suspicion. They were exiting the vehicle and upon exiting the vehicle, what we have learned is that this perpetrator fired at our officer, striking our officer. The wounded suspect, a man about 30 years old, fled into an apartment, which was surrounded by a SWAT team. Police negotiators eventually persuaded him to give up. There was a peaceful surrender after long negotiations, Harrison said. Bridges has a lengthy criminal record stretching back many years. The killer was taken to a hospital with several gunshot wounds and arrested. It is not known yet whether Bridges attempted "Suicide by cop" or just wanted a lifetime of free room and board. In East New Orleans cops travel 4 per car, and he had no chance of getting away with his ambush. _________________________________ Tech Support Pits From: Sarah Re: Which Search Engine Dear Webby, You seem to be able to find an answer to just about anything.

DearWebby A man is walking along a California beach when he stumbles across an old lamp. He picks it up, rubs it, and out pops a genie! The genie says, "OK, OK! You released me from the lamp, blah, blah,blah. This is the fourth time this month and I am getting sick and tired of granting all these wishes, so you can forget about three. You only get ONE wish!" The man sits down on the sand and thinks about it for a while. Finally he says, "I've always wanted to go to Hawaii but I'm scared of flying and I get very sea sick. Can you build me a bridge to Hawaii so I can drive over there?" "That's impossible!" shrieks the genie. "Think of the logistics of that! How would the supports ever reach the bottom of the Pacific?! Think of how much concrete that would take, how much steel! No! No way! Think of another wish!" He thinks for a long time and says I've been married and divorced four times and all of my wives has said that I don't care and that I am insensitive. So, I wish that I could understand women...know how they feel inside and what they are thinking when they give me the silent treatment...know why they are crying...know what they really want when they say "nothing"...know how to truly make them happy.... The genie says, "Do you want that bridge two lanes or four?" | If you can help with the cost of the Humor Letter, please donate what you can! | |
Daily tip from Thriftyfun.com Heel Marks on the Floor First, the best way to prevent heel marks is to have a "no shoes" policy in your house. If you have a heel mark you need to remove, just rub it with a pencil eraser. A "magic" eraser also works well for removing heel marks on floors or baseboards. Tip provided by Thriftyfun.com ____________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________ It had been snowing for hours when an announcement came over the intercom: "Will the students who are parked on University Drive please move their cars so that we may begin plowing." Twenty minutes later there was another announcement: "Will the twelve hundred students who went to move 26 cars please return to class." __________________________________________________ | | Oranki Art Park Lappland. |

When is the best time to plant them?" The prisoner, knowing that the prison guards read all mail, replied in a letter, "Dear wife, whatever you do, do not touch the back garden. That is where I hid all the money." A week or so later, he received another letter from his wife: "You won't believe what happened, some men came with shovels to the house, and dug up all the back garden." The prisoner wrote another letter: "Dear wife, now is the best time to plant the vegetables." | Ophelia Dingbatter's NewsNo sermon and not suitable for church, just jokes and fun for grownups.

The priest was instructing a class of third-graders at All Saints grammar school. He said, "There were two brothers, and one of them chose the wicked path of Satan. The brother was evil and corrupt and did great damage to many people, and wound up a convicted criminal in a tiny, dark cell. But, the other brother studied hard and became a great, rich, knowledgeable politician. Now, children, what is the difference between these two brothers, who started out in the same place, who together embarked upon life's stormy seas?" Little Johnny raised his hand and said, "Easy. One of them got caught." ____________________________________________________ | Today, October 15, in 1815 Napoleon Bonaparte began his exile on the remote island of St. Helena in the Atlantic Ocean. 1860 Grace Bedell, 11 years old, wrote a letter to presidential candidate Abraham Lincoln.
