"Guess what, sir?" the clerk said. "I finally sold that terrible, ugly suit we've had so long!" "Do you mean that repulsive pink-and-blue double- breasted thing?" the manager asked. "That's the one!" That's great!" the manager cried, "I thought we'd never get rid of that monstrosity! That had to be the ugliest suit we've ever had! But tell me. Why is your hand bandaged?" "Oh," the clerk replied, "after I sold the guy that suit, his guide dog bit me." __________________________________________   __________________________________________ 23% of all photocopier faults worldwide are caused by people sitting on them and photocopying their buttocks. ___________________________________________________   An INTERNATIONAL BONEHEAD AWARD has been earned by  Santiago Castillo, 18, Wichita, Kansas, USA 
 Armed teen robs Wichita McDonald's via drive-thru 
 Wichita police have arrested an 18-year-old suspect for allegedly robbing a local McDonald's. Santiago Castillo was booked early Wednesday morning for aggravated robbery and remains held on $75,000 bond. Officers responded at around 9 p.m. Tuesday to an armed robbery at the McDonald's at West Street and Taft. One of the two 17-year-old employees told police that the suspect opened the drive-thru window, was armed with a handgun and demanded cash. An undisclosed amount of cash from the register was given to the suspect who fled in a white Ford Flex. Police spokesperson Charley Davidson said officers located the suspect's vehicle at around 10:30 p.m. near University Avenue and Knight Street. They arrested Castillo. An 18-year-old female in the car with him was not taken into custody. Officers also saw the cash drawer, a mask and a gun inside the vehicle.  DeaWebby's Tech Support Pits  From: Edith Re: Internert surveillaance   Dear Webby, I read so much about people getting caught online for anything from tax evasion to child molesting. I don't do any of that, about the worst I do is tell some Dementos off. Does that make me a target? You know how the Dementos twist everything around! Should I be worried and look for a program to protect me? Edith  Dear Edith 1) Get Malwarebytes. That keeps all the evildoers out. They can't plant any surveillance stuff. 2) Overload the evildoers. Yes, total data overload. Naturally, you don't mention anything about YOUR planned actions. Gush about having heard about your mayor or parliamentarian looking for Napalm and stuff to poison Petunia and Broom Hilda and Pocahuntas. Start a daily column about "Secret News from the Laundromat". Get them all excited and wasting time. Pretty soon they will realize that you are just putting them on, and they will leave you in peace. Keep in mind that the FBI and the CIA are still Obamanov's toadies. Because they are bullshitters, they are easy to bullshit. Just turn the tables and bullshit THEM. Lay it on thick! When you start your "Secret News from the Laundromat" tell me the URL. I will mention it in the Humor Letter. I bet quite a few people will chime in with all kinds of juicy gossip. Just have fun and don't worry. You saw how much joking I do about Petunia and Broom Hilda and Pocahuntas. No problem at all, but Trump sent me a brand new Trump2020 cap. Have FUN! DearWebby

 15 Unbelievable Places that Actually Exist 
 _____________________________________________ 
 A little woman called Mount Sinai Hospital. She said, "Hello, darling, I'd like to talk with the person who gives the information regarding your patients. But, I don't want to know if the patient is getting better, or doing like expected, or worse. I want to know all the information from top to bottom, from A to Z!" The voice on the other end of the line said, "That's a very unusual request...What is the patient's name and room number?" She said, "Yes, darling! I'd like to know the information about Sarah Finkel, in Room 302." He said, "Finkel, Finkel. Let me see. Feinberg, Farber, Finkel. Oh, yes. Mrs. Finkel is doing very well. In fact, she's had two full meals, her blood pressure is fine, her blood work just came back as normal, she's going to be taken off the heart monitor in a couple of hours and if she continues this improvement, Dr. Cohen is going to send her home Tuesday at twelve o' clock." The woman said, "Thank God! That's wonderful! Oh, thank God! Her test came back normal, she's getting off the heart machine in a couple of hours, you say. Oh! that's fantastic, darling! And she is being released tomorrow at twelve o'clock! I'm so happy to hear that! . . . That's wonderful news!" The man on the phone said, "From your enthusiasm, I take it you must be a close family member or a very close friend!" She said, 'What close family or friend? I'm Sarah Finkel in 302! Cohen, my doctor tells me nothing." _____________________________________________ Why are new girlfriends like a fresh roll of toilet paper? Sometimes it's kind of hard to get the first piece, but after that you can rip one off anytime! _____________________________________________ A Scoutmaster was teaching his Boy Scouts about survival in the Alaskan wilderness. "What are the three most important things you should bring with you in case you get lost alone in the woods?" he asked. Several hands went up, and many important things were mentioned, such as water, matches, etc. Then one little boy in the back eagerly raised his hand. "Yes, Timmy, what are the three most important things you would bring?" asked the Scoutmaster. Timmy replied, "A compass, food, and a deck of cards." "Why's that, Timmy?" the Scoutmaster asked. "The compass is to find the right direction, and the food is to maintain you until you're rescued." "And what about the playing cards, Timmy?" asked the Scoutmaster impatiently. "Well, sir, as soon as you start playing solitaire, someone always walks up behind you and says, 'Put that red nine on top of that black ten!' " ____________________________________________ A Sunday school teacher was discussing the Ten Commandments with her five and six year olds. After explaining the commandment to "Honor thy father and thy mother," she asked, "Is there a commandment that teaches us how to treat our brothers and sisters?" Without missing a beat one little boy (the oldest of a family) answered,"Thou shall not kill."
