He is told to meet the inspector at the signal box. The inspector puts this question to him: "What would you do if you realised that two trains were heading for each other on the same track?" Andy says, "I would switch the points for one of the trains." "What if the lever broke?" asked the inspector. "Then I'd dash down out of the signal box," said Andy, "and I'd use the manual lever over there." "What if that had been struck by lightning?" "Then," Andy continues, "I'd run back into the signal box and phone the next signal box." "What if the phone was engaged?" "Well in that case," persevered Andy, "I'd rush down out of the box and use the public emergency phone at the level crossing up there." "What if that was vandalised?" "Oh well then I'd run into the village and get my uncle Tony." This puzzles the inspector, so he asks, "Why would you do that?" Came the answer, "Because his wife, my sister, keeps saying his feet smell so bad, the stench could stop a train!" One summer evening during a violent thunderstorm a mother was tucking her small boy into bed. She was about to turn off the light when he asked with a tremor in his voice, "Mommy, will you sleep with me tonight?" The mother smiled and gave him a reassuring hug. "I can't dear," she said. "I have to sleep in Daddy's room." A long silence was broken at last by his shaking little voice: "The big sissy." ______________________________________________________ Faced with hard times, the company offered a bonus of one thousand dollars to any employee who could come up with a way of saving money.

Esteysi Sanchez Izazaga, 29, Oceanside, California A pedestrian killed in a hit-and-run flew through the front windshield of the car as the woman behind the wheel kept driving for a mile with the body lodged in the front seat, police said. She eventually parked in a cul-de-sac and walked away, police said. The crash happened in Oceanside, a San Diego County beach town, at 6:20 a.m. Monday. Witnesses reported seeing a man walking on the sidewalk along Mission Avenue when he was hit by a car. Esteysi Sanchez Izazaga, 29, who also goes by Stacy Sanchez, drove her car onto the sidewalk and hit the man at random, according to Oceanside police. Because of her speed, the victim flew into the windshield, head down, coming to a rest on the front passenger seat, police said. The man's leg detached from his body and flew through the back window, landing on the trunk of the car, police said. Izazaga continued driving for about a mile, police said, eventually parking her car in a neighborhood cul-de-sac and walking away. She is suspected of DUI. Witnesses called police, who found Izazaga a few blocks away. She was arrested and will be booked into the Vista Detention Facility. ______________________________________________________ Tech Support Pits From: Ron RE: Getting rid of duplicates Dear Webby, I have a question about duplicate files especially music and pictures. I have windows 10 (by the way I love it) but I have had this problem since windows 98. How can get rid of these excess files? The worst is in Windows Media Player. I have even deleted files manually but they just show up again. Any help would be appreciated. Thank I also hope youyr eyes keep making improvements. Ron Dear Ron Use "SearchEverything", that I have mentioned a few times. It is at http://voidtools.com Make a folder for wav, mp3 and mp4, and so on. Then let SearchEverything search all your drives for *.wav When it has found them all, SHIFT-DRAG them to the new wav folder. When it encounters duplicates, Windows will ask you if you want to skip or move and replace. Move and replace. Checkmark "Same for all others." That gets rid of all the duplicates. Then do the same with MP3 and MP4 and whatever you want to deduplicate. There are also lots of deduplicater programs available, some of them cheap. However, if you have the free SearchEverything, you can do the same a lot faster, and without having to learn a new program. Have FUN! DearWebby _____________________________________________________ Todd and Jill had just gotten back from the honeymoon, and were having their first fight, and it was a big one. No matter what Todd tried to say or do, Jill refused to compromise, or even listen. He started growing exasperated. After a while, Todd said "When we got married, you promised to love, honor and obey." Jill replied, "I know. I just didn't want to start an argument in front of all those people at the wedding." ______________________________________________________ If you can help with the cost of the Humor Letter, please donate what you can! ______________________________________________________ Daily tip from Thriftyfun.com White Vinegar to Remove Calcium Deposits By Litter Gitter [170 Posts, 599 Comments] To remove calcium deposits on a faucet, wrap a cloth or small towel, that is soaked with white vinegar, around the faucet and let it sit for several hours. It will remove most of the calcium deposit. Afterwards, scrub with steel wool or a scrubbing pad to remove any that remains. In this case, I wrapped the vinegar soaked towel around the faucet and poured more vinegar on the towel and let it sit over night. I was surprised at the results when I removed the towel. I didn't have time to do any scrubbing with steel wool, but you can tell the difference just by looking at the photos that the white vinegar removed most of the calcium deposit. I really didn't think it was going to work and I was amazed at the results Litter Gitter ______________________________________________________ Ophelia Dingbatter's News

_____________________________________________________ Dear Lord, So far today, I am doing all right. I have not gossiped, haven't lost my temper, haven't been greedy, grumpy, nasty, selfish, or overindulgent. However, you better watch out! In a few minutes I am going to open my eyes and get out of bed. ___________________________________________________ | when you're angry and you spot the camera |
____________________________________________________ What is the difference between mass and weight? Mass is where Catholics go on Sunday, and weight is where sundaes go on a Catholic. ____________________________________________________ The full moon a few days ago reminded me of this story: I gaze at the brilliant moon. The same one, I think to myself, at which Socrates, Aristotle, and Plato gazed. Suddenly, I imagine they appear beside me. I tell Socrates about the national debate over one's right to die and wonder at the constancy of the human condition. I tell Plato that I live in the country that has come closest to Utopia, and backed away from it, and I show him a copy of the Constitution and the way the courts and the politicians hacked it to pieces. I tell Aristotle that we have found many more than four basic elements and I show him a periodic table. Then I get a box of kitchen matches and strike one. They gasp with wonder. We spend the rest of the night lighting farts. ____________________________________________________ | | Different places to vacation for a change. |
