Thanks for your votes! ___________________________________________________ An INTERNATIONAL BONEHEAD AWARD has been earned by No Name, No mug for the teenage armed robber Araceli Diaz, 21, Chicago, Illinois Armed Chicago girl, 14, tried to rob woman who shot her in chest, both charged A teenage girl who was shot in the chest in a Chicago neighborhood Friday night is now facing an attempted robbery charge after officials said she tried to rob a woman she was meeting for a sale. The Chicago Police Department said in a news release on Saturday the incident happened around 5:45 p.m. in the city's Little Village neighborhood, when 21-year-old Araceli Diaz met with the 14-year-old girl after the teenager arranged the meeting to buy a dog. When the 14-year-old met up with Diaz, officials said the teen pulled out a pellet gun, struck the 21-year-old on the head with it and tried to take the dog without paying for it. "We're not sure where they met initially or how they communicated, but all we do know is that the 14-year-old did show up with other intentions and she pulled out a BB gun," Chicago Police Officer Jose Jara told FOX32. In response, Diaz then allegedly pulled out a handgun and shot the girl in the chest. Chicago Police said in a news release the 21-year-old was found to have a valid Illinois Firearm Owner's Identification card, or FOID card, to possess a weapon, but no concealed carry license. Diaz was subsequently arrested in Cicero about an hour after the shooting and charged with unlawful use of a weapon, according to police. The 14-year-old was transported to an area hospital where she was treated for her gunshot wound before she was arrested Saturday morning and charged with attempted armed robbery. Chicago police said that Diaz is scheduled to appear in court on Sunday.

This guy found the neatest way to make his wife a more careful and defensive driver. He pointed out to her if she's ever in an accident, the paper will print her real age. What's the Heirloom Christmas Book about? It is a BIG e-book with all the stories, that your great grandmother recited or read to your grandmother, when she was a kid. I want these stories to be preserved. You may know what it is about, when somebody mentions "bittersweet love like in 'The Gift Of The Magi'," but with today's education, your kids or even their teachers, probably don't know. So I collected these classics and put them all together into one e-book. This book of Christmas Stories is a cultural treasure, that should be passed on to our descendants. Since it is in e-book format, you can put it onto a CD for each kid, and fill the rest of the CD with family pictures and other keepsakes, making it a true heirloom. I have produced a smaller version last year. This final edition has more stories and illustrations, but I kept the price down to the same $10. The Heirloom Christmas Book also makes a nice Christmas gift! Click on the book cover to get your copy or click on Heirloom Christmas Book http://webby.com/cb You can download it and give the file as a gift! ___________________________________________________ Daily tip from Thriftyfun.com Thriftyfun.com Use Mirrors With Flowers Get twice as many flowers for the same price. A small bunch of rosebuds cost me just $4 for six blooms. When the flowers were placed in a vase on the buffet, close to the mirror on the wall, it suddenly looked like there were a dozen roses. I imagine that thrifty brides could maximize money they spend on flowers with mirrors. By Holly from Holly, MI Thriftyfun.com also has a newsletter.

___________________________________________________ A woman phoned her dentist when she received a huge bill. "I'm shocked!" she complained. "This is three times what you normally charge." "Yes, I know," said the dentist. "But you screamed so loudly, you scared away two other patients." ___________________________________________________ When Do was little, Do was attending a first wedding. Afterwards, when asked if Do had understood it all, Do replied: "Yes, it's simple. The woman in the fancy white dress upgraded her man." I asked Do to explain that and this was the answer: "Well, she went down the aisle with an old man and came back with a new version." ___________________________________________________ A professor was giving a lecture on company slogans in a college advertising and marketing class. "Joe," he asked, "which company has the slogan, 'Come fly the friendly skies'?" "United Airlines," Joe answered. "Brenda, can you tell me which company has the slogan, 'Don't leave home without it'?" Brenda easily answered correctly, "American Express." "Now, John, Tell me which company uses the slogan, 'Just do it'?" And John answered, "Mom." __________________________________________________ | Ophelia Dingbatter's NewsNo sermon and not suitable for church, just jokes and fun for grownups.
