Does that sound familiar? ____________________________________________________ Reported by Rock An INTERNATIONAL BONEHEAD AWARD has been earned by Demarrus Pritchett, 23, Huntingdon, Tennessee, USA Wendys Customer Doused With Hot Oil By Shift Manager According to a police report, a man purchased food in a Wendys drive-thru late Tuesday night, before returning to inform an employee that his food was cold. The situation escalated to a verbal altercation between the customer and 23-year-old Demarrus Pritchett, who was working in his role as shift manager. Surveillance footage showed Pritchett obtain a pan of hot oil from the kitchen, walk back to the drive-thru, and pour it over the customer through the window. The victim received extensive burns on his left side and arm and was treated for his injuries at Baptist Memorial Hospital. While in custody, Pritchett admitted to throwing the hot oil and claimed he had been previously harassed by the victim. Pritchett was charged with aggravated assault and has since been released on bond. We spoke with the victims mother Wednesday, who says he currently isnt in good condition and hopes justice is served. ____________________________________________________ If you can help with the cost of the Humor Letter, please donate what you can! ______________________________________________________ From: Frank Re: W7 updates Dear Webby, I recall that in the past you cautioned about 'new updates'.

_____________________________________________ Bernie's mom admitted to being a less than fastidious housekeeper. One evening dad returned home from work, walked into the kitchen and said, "You know, dear, I can write my name in the dust on the mantel." Mom turned to him and sweetly replied, "Well, darling, that's a pretty good start! I'm sure with some patient practising you could even learn to dust it!" ____________________________________________ During class, the chemistry professor was demonstrating the properties of various acids. "Now I'm dropping this silver coin into this glass of acid. Will it dissolve?" "No, sir," a student called out. "No?" queried the professor. "Perhaps you can explain why the silver coin won't dissolve." "Well, Professor Mc Scottish, if it would, you would have asked for MY coin for the experiment !" ______________________________________________ Bert's wife enrolled Molly, her lovable but dumb cocker spaniel, in a ten-week obedience class. At the end of the term Molly had made little progress. She re-enrolled her, but at the end of the second course Molly was still noticeably behind her canine classmates. The instructor, perhaps determined to succeed with that dog, offered to let her repeat the course for the third time at no charge. That evening Bert heard his wife on the phone with her mother. "Guess what?" she said. "Molly was the only dog in her class to get a scholarship!" ______________________________________________ | Ophelia Dingbatter's NewsNo sermon and not suitable for church, just jokes and fun for grownups.
