Today's Bonehead Award: Florida man, 28, is arrested for the 66th time on drugs and firearms charges __________________________________________ A man comes home from work to find total mayhem. The kids are outside, still in their pajamas, playing in the mud and muck. Empty food boxes and wrappers litter the lawn. Inside, he finds an even bigger mess. Dishes on the counter, dog food spilled on the floor, a broken glass under the table, and a small pile of sand by the back door. The family room is strewn with toys and various items of clothing, and a lamp has been knocked over. The man heads up the stairs, stepping over toys, to look for his wife. He is worried that she might be ill or that something has happened to her. He finds her in the bedroom, still in bed with her pajamas on, reading a book. She looks up at him, smiles, and asks how his day went. He looks at her bewildered and ask, "what happened here today?" "You know every day when you come home from work and ask me what I did today?" she says. "Yes," the man says. "Well, today I didn't do it." __________________________________________ Thanks to Jean for sending this picture: __________________________________________ A fellow buys a chainsaw after listening to a salesman's claims that it can cut 100 cords of wood in one day. The man takes the chainsaw home and begins working on the trees. After cutting for several hours, and cutting only two cords, he quits. Something must be wrong with the chainsaw, he thinks. "How can I cut for hours and only cut two cords?" He vows to cut all day the next day, and so he gets up at 4 a.m. and cuts until nightfall. Still, he manages to cut only five cords. The man is convinced that he got a lemon, so he takes it back to the dealer and explains the problem. The dealer is baffled. He takes the chainsaw from the case and examines it. "It looks fine to me," he says. Then he puts some gas into the tank and pulls the cord and the chainsaw roars into action. The man jumps. "What's that noise?" he asks. ---------- I was told that joke by a guy from Quebec in 1970. He had a very strong French accent, and in his version of the joke, the guy who bought the chainsaw was from Montreal. I still remember his punchline: "Wha dat noise?" ___________________________________________________ An INTERNATIONAL BONEHEAD AWARD AND a DARWIN AWARD has been earned by

DearWebby's Tech Support Pits From: Janice Re: Computer slowing down Dear Webby, I am so computer illiterate I have no idea what you just said. So I will just be thankful I have my DearWebby Humor letter again. I know there is a Linux but had no idea how many versions there were. I think I do now??? My computer is failing fast. I don't want a new one, I just want all that stuff that creeped on to disappear. I think what part I do use will be okay. IF I can get that creepy stuff off. I am working on it. My computer guru (my daughter's husband) here wants to put 10 on this machine but I keep telling him I don't want 10, I just want 7 to run smoothly. We are still talking but I got a feeling I am going to lose. I don't think 10 will run on this dinosaur. Or if it does, it will be slower than the one I have now. Oh well, I have vented and I will probably lose. I hate changing systems. How are you doing? I am so glad you are okay as far as I can tell, I was imagining the worst. I got my Webby fix and am a happy camper now. I am getting ready to read today's edition now. I am a creature of habit. Big Gentle Elephant Hugs!!! Janice Dear Janice OK, if you don't have MalwareBytes, get it. Then get "Should I Remove it" https://should-i-remove-it.en.softonic.com/ It does an inventory of everything you got, and tells you what is safe to remove. And it even helps you remove the crap. Then get CrapCleaner and clean fragments of old files and other useless crap. After that, your machine will be good and fast again. I agree, W10 probably would not run on that machine, but it is no help anyway. It just puts the steering wheel on the wrong side and mixes up the gas and brake pedal, and slows things down. And tries to make you switch to an expensive Mac. Just clean up, and your machine will be fine. Have FUN! DearWebby

 Consider the tale of the man who gets a job as a night watchman at a factory. Every morning when the night shift workers pass through his gate it is his job to check their bags and pockets to make sure they aren't stealing anything. Things are going along very well the first night on the job until a man pushing a wheelbarrow full of newspapers comes through his gate. He thinks the man is using the papers to cover up what he is stealing, so he removes the paper only to find nothing. Still he feels the man is acting strangely, so he questions him about the paper. "I get a little extra money from newspapers I recycle, so I go into the lunchroom and pick up all the ones people have thrown away," the man says. The guard lets him pass, but decides to keep a close eye on him. Week after week it's the same. The guy pushes the wheelbarrow of newspapers past the guard's checkpoint. One day after he had been on the job a year, the guard is summoned to his supervisor's office and fired. "Fired?" the watchman asks in total surprise. "Why? What did I do?" "It was your job to make sure that no one stole anything from this plant and you failed," the supervisor says. "What do you mean? Nobody ever stole anything from this place while I was on guard." "Oh, really," the boss answers. "Then how do you account for the fact that 365 wheelbarrows are missing?" _____________________________________________ GROAN ALERT! A monastery in the English countryside was having a hard time with its cash flow because of the dwindling number of monks available to help with all the work. Then one day two of the monks, who had been discussing the problem, suggested they open a fish and chips stand down on the highway, right next to a scenic vista area popular with tourists. The other monks agreed, and the two put up the stand. One day a tourist who wanted to offer a compliment asked the monk on duty, "Are you the fish friar?" "No, sir," retorted the brother, "I'm the chip monk." ____________________________________________ "I'm ashamed of you," the mother says. "Fighting with your best friend is a terrible thing to do!" "He threw a rock at me," the boy says, "so I threw one at him." "When he threw a rock at you, you should have come to me," the mother says. "What good would that have done?" the boy asks. "My aim's much better than yours." ____________________________________________
