______________________________________________________ In those days spirits were brave, the stakes were high, men were real men, women were real women and small furry creatures from Alpha Centauri were real small furry creatures from Alpha Centauri. --- Douglas Adams (1952 - 2001) Don't marry the person you think you can live with; marry only the individual you think you can't live without. --- James C. Dobson ______________________________________________________ If you like the Humor Letter, please vote! ______________________________________________________ A man was robbing a house in the middle of the night. All of a sudden, he heard a parrot cry out. "Jesus is watching you!" The robber ignored it, and takes the TV. Again, the parrot cries out. "Jesus is gonna get you." The robber started to get a little worried. "What's your name, birdie?" "Moses." "What dummy named you Moses?" "The same dummy who called his Rottweiler Jesus." _____________________________________________________ Lost Churches of Louisiana One of the local television stations in Louisiana aired an interview with a woman from New Orleans after Hurricane Katrina. The interviewer was from a Boston affiliate. She asked the Lousiana woman how such total and complete devastation of the churches in the area had affected their lives. Without hesitation, the woman replied: "I don't know about all those other people, but we haven't gone to Churches in years. We gets our chicken from Popeye's". The look on the interviewer's face was priceless!!! _____________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________ Thanks to Sandie for this story: A man and his ever-nagging wife went on vacation to Jerusalem. While they were there, the wife passed away. The undertaker told the Husband, "You can have her shipped home for $5,000, or you can bury her here, in the Holy Land, for $150." The man thought about it for a few seconds and then told him he would just have her shipped home. The undertaker asked, "Why would you spend $5,000 to ship your wife's dead body home, when it would be wonderful to be buried here and you would spend only $150?" The man replied, "Long ago a man died here, was buried here, and three days later he rose from the dead. I just don't want to take that chance." ______________________________________________________ Poor dog! _____________________________________________________ If you like the Humor Letter, please vote!

Parents arrested after baby nearly dies of heroin overdose Boynton Beach police said in a news release that Kristen Leigh O'Connor, 28, and June Schweinhart, 29, were taken to a hospital Thursday after officers found them passed out inside the SUV. The infants, ages 1 and 2 months, were properly strapped into their car seats, police said. O'Connor told investigators she picked up Schweinhart -- whom she had met in a drug treatment program -- and they bought $60 worth of heroin from her old drug dealer. The women snorted the drug and then overdosed. After treatment, they were booked into jail on child neglect charges, police said. The infants were turned over to family members. _________________________________ Tech Support Pits From: Bill Re: Malwarebytes over McAfee? Dear Webby, Do you prefer Malwarebytes over McAfee? Happy Thanksgiving. Bill Dear Bill Yes, since Christmas 2016 I do prefer Malwarebytes. Have FUN! DearWebby Thanks to Dave for this story: Oh, no!" he gasped as he surveyed the disaster before him. Never in his 40 years of life had he seen such devastation. How anyone could have survived, he did not know. He could only hope that somewhere amid the overwhelming destruction he would find his 16-year-old son. Only the slim hope of finding Junior kept him from turning and fleeing the scene. He took a deep breath and proceeded. Walking was virtually impossible with so many things strewn across his path. He moved ahead slowly. "Junior! Junior!" he whispered to himself to keep himself steady. He tripped and almost fell several times. He heard someone, or something, move. At least he thought he did. Perhaps, he was just hoping he did. He shook his head and felt his gut tighten. He couldn't understand how this could have happened. There was some light but not enough to see very much. Something cold and wet brushed against his hand. He jerked it away. In desperation, he took another step then cried out, "Junior!" From a nearby pile of unidentified material, he heard his son. "Yes, Dad," he said, in a voice so weak it could hardly be heard. "It's time to get up and get ready for school," the man sighed. "And for heaven's sake, clean up your room!" | If you can help with the cost of the Humor Letter, please donate what you can! | |
Daily tip from Thriftyfun.com Cleaning With Club Soda For new stains, club soda can be an effective spot removing for clothing and carpets. First blot the stain to soak up as much as possible. Then pour club soda directly on the stain, wait a 5 seconds and scrub the area with a damp sponge. For stains on carpet, if the stain has been successfully removed, put a towel on the top of the area with a book on top of it. This will soak up any moisture that remains in the carpet or the pad.

____________________________________________________ A man was sued by a woman for defamation of character. She charged that he had called her a pig. The man was found guilty and fined. After the trial he asked the judge, "This means that I cannot call Mrs. Johnson a pig?" The judge said that was true. "Does this mean I cannot call a pig Mrs. Johnson?" the man asked. The judge replied that he could indeed call a pig Mrs. Johnson with no fear of legal action. The man looked directly at Mrs. Johnson and said, "Good afternoon, Mrs. Johnson." __________________________________________________ | | The Fairy Tale Forests of Yakushima |
___________________________________________________ Here is a real classic! There once was a Preacher that went to heaven. When he got to the pearly gates, there was a man in front of him. The man was a mess (t-shirt, long hair, and wearing flip flops). The man told St Peter his name and told him he was a New York taxi driver. St Peter looked up his name and gave him a silk robe and a silver staff. The Preacher then walked up to St Peter gave his name. He told him he was a Preacher of such & such church. St Peter looked up his name and gave him a cotton robe with a wooden driftwood stick. The Preacher complained and said " Hey, the guy before me was a taxi driver and you gave him a silk robe and a silver staff. I'm a preacher of the word of God and all I got was this flimsy cotton robe and a wooden stick." St Peter said to the Preacher, "When you preached people slept, When he drove people prayed." | Ophelia Dingbatter's NewsNo sermon and not suitable for church, just jokes and fun for grownups.

Almost every week I get a mail with that fake North Pole sunset photo. That's a digital painting, probably for a cover for a Science Fiction paperback, or just for fun. There are no mountains and no open water anywhere near the North Pole, just the flattest and most boring ocean ice you can imagine. Mother Earth has a smooth, dull white bald spot on top. The nearest land is about 250 Miles South and the nearest mountains are about 550 Miles South, and the nearest open water is wherever a submarine poked a hole into the ocean ice to let the guys out for a smoke. That picture is a purely digital creation, done maqny years ago by Inga Nielsen, a student in Germany, probably done with TerraGen, a terrain generating software for landscapers, or some similar software.
