The doctor examined him and said, "You're in remarkably good condition for a man of 85. Why are you here?" Sam replied, "My friend Max says he has sex twice a week. I can't do that." The doctor shrugged. "Yes you can. You can certainly SAY you have sex as many times a week as you like." ____________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________ A doctor examined a woman, took the husband aside, and said: "I don't like the looks of your wife at all." "Me either doc." said the husband. "But she's a great cook and really good with the kids." ____________________________________________________ An INTERNATIONAL BONEHEAD AWARD has been earned by Jonathan Lorenz, 37, Chandler, Arizona, USA AZ Casino parkade killer arrested Johnathan Lorenz has been arrested on first degree murder charges after a shooting at Wild Horse Pass Casino last week. According to Gila River Police, the shooting stemmed from an incident involving a man and a woman, and the woman's significant other. "Appears to be a domestic situation where a man found his significant other with another man," police said on April 15. "At some point, one of the men was shot and died. A male suspect is in custody." The victim was identified by police as 52-year-old Phillip Bachelder. The suspect, 37-year-old Jonathan Lorenz, was booked into jail following his release from the hospital. He is accused of first-degree murder and aggravated assault. The woman was not injured. According to police, Lorenz tracked his ex to the casino using GPS, and laid in the bed of a pickup truck to wait. When he saw her with another man come out, he came up shooting. Police say while Lorenz fired at his ex, his gun jammed. "I heard screaming from a female. Turned out she was being locked down by the Gila River police officers. She was handcuffed," said Lionheart. Then, a shootout started between law enforcement and Lorenz. As he ran away, he stumbled several times and dropped his gun. An officer hit him with a taser, and Lorenz was taken into custody. The incident happened as casino customers were coming and going, seemingly unaware of what just happened. According to police reports, Lorenz and his ex had recently split up. She said he had been dropping by her house on announced, had vandalized her vehicle, and that he was tracking her using an app on his cell phone. The report did not specify why the woman was handcuffed and led away. DearWebby's Tech Support Pits From: Dorothy Re: Greenhouse cooling Dear Webby Years ago you mentioned using 5 gallon pails filled with water to store heat from the day and to keep the chill off at night. That has always worked well in the greenhouse on the East side. Now I have a problem on the new West Side greenhouse. It gets too hot in the afternoon. I don't have electricity out there, just one solar panel. What do you recommend? Dorothy Dear Doroty Find or buy an old thermostat that has 3 terminals, a common, one for heating and one for cooling, and a couple of motors from an old toy. The thermostat does not care whether you connect 110 Volt AC or 3 or 6 or 12 Volt DC. Make a gable end wall window hinged so that it opens SIDEWAYS, like any normal window or door. Put small wooden wheels onto each motor, with the motors attached to a plank with caulk or wire, so that the motors run in different directions. You can even use the motor as a lathe to turn the wheels to suit wide rubber bands. Set them up so that there is a bit of slip. Connect your solar battery to the center post on the thermostat and the other wire to the common on the motors. Now connect the left post of the thermostat to one motor, and the right to the other motor. Put the rubber bands on so that there is some slip. Now, when one motor runs, it will turn the wheel under the window clockwise, if the other motor runs, it will turn the wheel counterclockwise. The slip on the wheels is very impotant because opening the window does not instantly cool down the greenhouse, and neither does it warm up instantly, when the window slams shut. There are many ways you can adapt the system to your particular greenhouse. You can even use an 8" stove pipe with a butterfly valve. Whatever junk you got lying around. Expect the window to open and close when clouds move in front of the sun. It gets quite hilarious. Have FUN! DearWebby A husband and wife were at a party chatting with some friends when the subject of marriage counseling came up. "Oh, we'll never need that. My husband and I have a great relationship," the wife explained. "He was a communications major in college and I majored in theater arts. He communicates real well and I act like I'm listening." | If you can help with the cost of the Humor Letter, please donate what you can! | If you like my work,

_____________________________________________ While carpenters were working outside the old house a woman had just bought, she busied myself with indoor cleaning. She had just finished washing the floor when one of the workmen asked to use the bathroom. With dismay she looked from his muddy boots to her newly scrubbed floors. "Just a minute," She said, thinking of a quick solution. "I'll put down some newspapers." "That's all right, lady," he responded. "I'm already house trained." ____________________________________________ Thanks to Rheta for this one: Hi Webby: Heres one for you ok? A puzzled expression ran riot over Joanne's face.

"Write it down," he said, "and I think you'll figure it out." (She wrote...)

The movie is a remake of a Roman Gladiator-type movie. In the middle of the movie is a scene where the Romans are feeding people to the lions. The little old lady hits the buzzer she's been given, which stops the movie. The attendant comes down to her chair and says, "Yes, ma'am?" "This movie should be rated 'R'," she says, "because those Jews are being fed to the lions!" The attendant says, "Ma'am, those are Christians, not Jews." "Oh..... Ok. Well, start the movie up again." A few minutes later she again presses the buzzer. The attendant comes down to her chair. "Yes ma'am?" She points to the screen. "Those lions over there... they're not eating!" ____________________________________________ | Ophelia Dingbatter's NewsNo sermon and not suitable for church, just jokes and fun for grownups.
