"I'm busy," he said. "I'll do the next one." The next time came around and she asked again. The husband narrowed his eyes as he looked at his wife. "I didn't mean the next diaper. I meant the next baby." ______________________________________________________ >From FB ______________________________________________________ If you like the Dear Webby Daily Humor Letter, please vote for it at the Ezine Finder: Thanks for your votes! ______________________________________________________ An INTERNATIONAL BONEHEAD AWARD has been earned by Autumn Prieschl, 36, Charlotte, NC NC woman stole ambulance because she needed a ride Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police arrested a 36-year-old woman Thursday night on charges that she stole an ambulance from Carolinas Medical Center. Security cameras caught Autumn Prieschl getting behind the wheel of Ambulance #47 around 10 p.m. Thursday. Sources say the woman wasn't high, mentally unstable or sick, only that she said she needed a ride. Officials with MEDIC say that some of their people spotted her hanging out near the emergency entrance but didn't give it much thought. Fortunately #47 was empty. All of MEDIC's trucks are equipped with GPS trackers, so police knew right away where the ambulance was and they made a traffic stop in the 11600 block of Albemarle Road. Prieschl has been charged with larceny of a motor vehicle and trespassing. ______________________________________________________ Tech Support Pits From: Frank Re: Extract one mail from huge SPAM folder Dear Webby I sent my crable game to my spam folder by mistake Last week and because the person I play with was having flooding, I didn't realise it until today. I have over 1,000 files in that folder. I can only view about 20 of the most resent ones . How do i get something off my spam list I that I can not bring up? peddlerfrank Dear Frank Set your mails per page to 100. Go into the SPAM folder and sort it with OLDEST on top. Then make some shortcut keys in the settings. I use ALT ` for Select All ALT 1 delete selected Selecting and deleting 100 at a time, you can reduce that to a few day's worth in no time flat. It's a good idea to keep that trimmed to a few days worth. Next, while still in the SPAM folder, type your friend's name or a ddress into the se arch on top, and let it search for it. Highlight the found item, and select to move it to the INbox. Then go to the IN box, search for your friend again. Hw won't be on top, but on the day that he actually wrote. Have FUN!

He knows that the saucer is extremely old and very valuable, so he walks casually into the store and offers to buy the cat for two dollars. Aaron Schmalzgold, the store owner replies, "I'm sorry, but the cat isn't for sale." The collector says, "Please, I need a hungry cat around the house to catch mice. I'll pay you twenty dollars for that cat." Aaron says "Sold," and hands over the cat. The collector continues, "Hey, for the twenty bucks I wonder if you could throw in that old saucer. The cat's used to it and it'll save me from having to get a dish." And the owner says, "Sorry, but that's my lucky saucer. So far this week I've sold sixty-eight stray cats." ___________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________ Clutching their Dillard's shopping bags, Ellen and Kay woefully gazed down at the ex-cat in the mall parking lot. Obviously a recent hit---no flies, no smell. "What business could that poor kitty have had here?" murmured Ellen. "Come on, Ellen, we've got to just..." But Ellen had already grabbed her shopping bag and was explaining, "I'll just put my things in your bag, and then I'll take the tissue." She dumped her purchases into Kay's bag and then used the tissue paper to cradle and lower the former feline into her own Dillard's bag and cover it. They continued the short trek to the car in silence, stashing their goods in the trunk. But it occurred to both of them that if they left Ellen's burial bag in the trunk, warmed by the Texas sunshine while they ate, Kay's Lumina would soon lose that new-car smell. They decided to leave the bag on top of the trunk, and they headed over to Luby's Cafeteria. After they cleared the serving line and sat down at a window table, they had a view of Kay's Chevy with the Dillard's bag still on the trunk. BUT not for long. As they ate, they noticed a black-haired woman in a red gingham shirt stroll by their car, look quickly this way and that, and then hook the Dillard's bag without breaking stride. She quickly walked out of their line of vision. Kay and Ellen shot each other a wide-eyed look of amazement. It all happened so fast that neither of them could think how to respond. "Can you imagine?" finally sputtered Ellen. "The nerve of that woman!" Kay sympathised with Ellen, but inwardly a laugh was building as she thought about the grand surprise awaiting the red-gingham thief. Just when she thought she'd have to giggle into her napkin, she noticed Ellen's eyes freeze in the direction of the serving line. Following her gaze, Kay recognised with a shock the black-haired woman with the Dillard's bag, THE Dillard's bag, hanging from her arm, brazenly pushing her tray toward the cashier. Helplessly they watched the scene unfold. After clearing the register, the woman settled at a table across from theirs, put the bag on an empty chair and began to eat. After a few bites of baked whitefish and green beans, she casually lifted the bag into her lap to survey her treasure. Looking from side to side, but not far enough to notice her rapt audience three tables over, she pulled out the tissue paper and peered into the bag. Her eyes widened, and she began to make a sort of gasping noise. The noise grew. The bag slid from her lap as she sank to the floor, wheezing and clutching her upper chest. The beverage cart attendant quickly recognised a customer in trouble and sent the busboy to call 911, while she administered the Heimlich manoeuvre. A crowd quickly gathered that did not include Ellen and Kay, who remained riveted to their chairs for seven whole minutes until the ambulance arrived. In a matter of minutes the curly-haired woman emerged from the crowd, still gasping, strapped securely on a gurney. Two well- trained EMS volunteers steered her to the waiting ambulance, while a third scooped up her belongings. The last they saw of the distressed cat- burglar, she disappeared behind the ambulance doors, the Dillard's bag perched on her stomach! ____________________________________________________ Two ladies were working in a women's lingerie store a few days before Christmas when they saw a man nervously wandering up and down the aisles. One of the clerks walked over. "Is there something I can help you find?" she said. "No, really, I think I can find it myself" "Really sir, don't be shy. This is a lingerie store and it's our job to help people find the things they need. You shouldn't be embarrassed." "Well, okay. I'm looking for a bra for my wife." "Well that's no problem, we sell those everyday. What size does she need?" "7 3/4" "Are you sure? That's a rather odd size. How did you measure her?" "With my hat" ____________________________________________________ | My hands would freeze! And other parts too! |
