Details at Boneheads ______________________________________________________ Today, March 15, in 44 BC Roman Emperor Julius Caesar was assassinated by high ranking Roman Senators. The oracle had warned him about the "Ides of March." (March 15) ______________________________________________________ Thanks to Lucy from Alabama for this one. After having their 11th child, an Alabama couple decided that was enough (they could not afford a larger doublewide). The husband went to his doctor (who also treated mules, did taxidermy and sold Amway) and told him that he and his wife/cousin didn't want to have any more children. The doctor told him that there was a procedure called a vasectomy that could fix the problem. The doctor instructed him to go home, get a cherry bomb (fireworks are legal in 'Bama), light it, put it in a beer can, then hold the can up to his ear and count to 10. The Alabamian said to the doctor, "I may not be the smartest man, but I don't see how putting a cherry bomb in a beer can next to my ear is going to help me" Next the couple drove to Georgia to get a second opinion. The Georgia physician was just about to tell them about the procedure for a vasectomy when he noticed that they were from Alabama. After that he told the man to go home and get a cherry bomb, light it, place it in a beer can, hold it to his ear and count to 10. Figuring that both learned physicians couldn't be wrong, the man went home, lit a cherrybomb and put it in a beer can. He held the can up to his ear and began to count. "1, 2, 3, 4, 5 . . . . ", at which point he paused, placed the beer can between his legs and resumed counting on his other hand. ______________________________________________________ If you like the Humor Letter, please vote! ______________________________________________________ Trisha got lost in her car in a snow storm. She remembered what her dad had once told her. "If you ever get caught in a snow storm, wait for a snow plow and follow it." Pretty soon a snow plow came by, and she started to follow it. She followed the plow for about forty five minutes. Finally the driver of the truck got out and asked her what she was doing. She explained that her dad had told her if she ever got caught in a snow storm, to follow a plow. The driver nodded and said, "Well, I'm done with the Wal-Mart parking lot, but you can follow me over to K-Mart" ______________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________ Having passed the enlistment physical, Jon was asked by the doctor, "Why do you want to join the Navy, son?" "My father said it'd be a good idea, sir." "Oh? And what does your father do?" "He's in the Army, sir." ______________________________________________________ >From FB ______________________________________________________ If you like the Dear Webby Daily Humor Letter, please vote for it at the Ezine Finder: Thanks for your votes! ______________________________________________________ Yesterday's Darwin Award was a hoax, that had been repeated by all kinds of sites. Sorry about that! Thanks to Subscriber Frank for alerting me to my goof. An INTERNATIONAL BONEHEAD AWARD has been earned by Stephen Burton, 30, Pendleton, Oregon Naked Oregon man walked into stranger's home, said 'Hi', got chased away and fell off cliff. First his penis was dangling, and then he was - off a cliff. A man in Pendleton, Oregon, is behind bars after allegedly walking naked into the home of a woman he didn't know. "Hi, honey," he supposedly said, while trying to hug her. Officials said they later rescued him after he fell off a cliff and got caught upside-down in a tree. He was still naked. Gail Wilson was at home eating soup Saturday afternoon when the naked man appeared in her doorway. He had a big grin on his face, she told the East Oregonian newspaper. He came walking toward me with his arms open wide. I kept saying Get away from me. Get out of my house." Wilson, who suffers from muscular dystrophy, feared for her life. I thought, This is it, Im going to be raped or murdered,' Wilson told the paper. Id more or less accepted my fate. Today was my day. But I wasnt going to let him take me gently. Wilson shoved the naked intruder and told him to get away. She said the man grabbed her dog and took it into one of her bedrooms for a few minutes, according to KPTV.com. Wilson called 911. The dispatcher told her to ask the man his name, but that made him mad, and he ran out the door just as police arrived. The naked suspect, later identified as 30-year-old Stephen Burton, tried to escape by climbing a fence, that had been installed to keep people from falling down the cliff, shortly before falling. Burton was hanging upside down from a tree by his ankle, Pendleton Police Chief Stuart Roberts told MyColumbiaBasin.com. During this time, he was aggressive, non-cooperative. At one point, he even tried to pull the handgun from one of the assistant deputys holster. We worked to keep him calm, Dwight Johnson, an Umatilla County Sheriffs Deputy, told EastOregonian.com. He said Burton seemed to be in a state known as excited delirium that is sometimes triggered by drugs. Burton was booked at the Umatilla County Jail on charges of burglary, harassment, disorderly conduct and resisting arrest. ______________________________________________________ Tech Support Pits From: Fred Re: Weather site Dear Webby Do you know of a icon that will have the weather and temp. the is also free?

DearWebby _____________________________________________________ Following some duty overseas, the officers at the Fort were planning a welcome home party and dance for the unit. Being an all male combat force, they decided to request coeds from some of the surrounding colleges to attend. The Captain called Vassar and was assured by the Dean that arrangements could be made to send over a dozen of their most trustworthy students. The Captain hesitated, then said, "Would it also be possible to send a dozen or so of the other kind ?" ______________________________________________________ If you can help with the cost of the Humor Letter, please donate what you can! ______________________________________________________ Daily tip from Thriftyfun.com Question: Wine Stains on Crystal By carolyn [4 Posts] How do I clean a red wine stain left in the bottom of a crystal glass?

She's down to her last $50. Exasperated, she exclaims, "What rotten luck! What in the world should I do now?" A man standing next to her, trying to calm her down, suggests, "I don't know... Why don't you play your age?" He walks away. Moments later, his attention is grabbed by a great commotion at the roulette table. Maybe, she won! He rushes back to the table and pushes his way through the crowd. The lady is lying limp on the floor, with the table operator kneeling over her. The man is stunned. He asks, "What happened? Is she all right?" The operator replies, "I don't know. She put all her money on 29. When 36 came up, she just fainted!" ____________________________________________________ Fred was in the hospital after a bad accident. He was in stable condition and expected to recover soon, but relatives from far and near were there visiting him. When the pastor heard about that he decided to pop in and get re-aquainted with them all. As the preacher stood next to the bed, Ol' Fred's condition appeared to deteriorate suddenly and he frantically motioned for something to write on. The pastor lovingly handed him a pen and a piece of paper, and Ol' Fred used his last bit of energy to scribble a note, then suddenly died. The preacher thought it best not to look at the note at that time, so he placed it in his jacket pocket. At the funeral, as he was finishing the message, he realized that he was wearing the same jacket that he was wearing when Ol' Fred died. He said, "You know, Ol' Fred handed me a note just before he died. I haven't looked at it, but knowing Fred, I'm sure there's a word of inspiration there for us all. We'll let his widow read to us the last words Fred had for us." And with that he handed the note to Fred's widow. She opened the note, and read, "Step back, you idiot! You're standing on my oxygen tube!" ____________________________________________________ | Gregory Klassen transforms knots and live edges into rivers and lakes and they're gorgeous! |
