Good Morning, Do, Today is Monday, February 13 Thanks, Bill!! Have FUN! DearWebby Todays Bonehead Award: Killer strangled 4-year-old son after boy spotted him murdering his mother, a former teacher who had been the killer's lover. Details at Boneheads ______________________________________________________ Today, February 13 in 1945 At the end of World War II, Allied aircraft began bombing the disarmed German city of Dresden and reduced it to rubble in what they called Psychologigal Warfare. It did not work because the bombing was too thorough and nobody left to tell the tale. It was not until the book and movie "Slaughterhouse Five" decades later, that most of the Germans found out about it. See More of what happened on this day in history. ______________________________________________________ | If you can help with the cost of the Humor Letter, please donate what you can! | |

What a team is?" The little boy nodded in the affirmative. "Do you understand that what matters is whether we win together as a team?" The little boy nodded yes. "So," the coach continued, "when a strike is called, or you're out at first, you don't argue or curse or attack the umpire. Do you understand all that?" Again the little boy nodded. "Good," said the coach. "Now go over there and explain it to your mother." ______________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________ Shortly after returning home from a trip to Sea World in Florida, a friend went shopping for swimsuits with her children. When she emerged from the dressing room in a contrasting black-and-white suit, her four-year-old son, exclaimed his approval: "Oh, Mommy, that's perfect! You look just like Shamu!" ______________________________________________________ >From FB ______________________________________________________ If you like the Dear Webby Daily Humor Letter, please vote for it at the Ezine Finder: Thanks for your votes! ______________________________________________________ An INTERNATIONAL BONEHEAD AWARD has been earned by Isaac Infante, 23, Harlem, NY Killer strangled 4-year-old son after boy spotted him murdering his mother, a former teacher who had been the killer's lover. The confessed killer of an ex-girlfriend in her Harlem home strangled their 4-year-old son when he stumbled onto the crime scene, police sources told the Daily News. Miguel Barahona was in the bathroom when an enraged Isaac Infante attacked Felicia Barahona, and the killer was standing over her lifeless body when the little boy emerged, the sources said. Duran then choked his helpless son to death, placing the boys body into the bathtub before fleeing the apartment during the Dec. 22 rampage, the sources said Wednesday. The defendant detailed the taking of a cord and taking it to (Barahonas) neck until she turned blue and the life drained from her body, said Assistant District Attorney Nicole Blumberg. The unsuspecting child had no idea he would be the defendants next victim. Infante, 23, faces two counts of first-degree murder in the double-homicide. He admitted entering the apartment with the intention of murdering his ex-lover, sources said. He was remanded without bail after the hearing. Infante and Barahona were lovers while Infante was a high school student and she was his teacher, with the woman delivering their child in August 2012. Her body, a telephone cord wrapped around her throat, was found four days later on Monday morning with Infante charged a day later. The superintendent at Barahonas apartment smelled a stench seeping from her apartment into the hallway Monday, put down his mop and went out on the fire escape to look inside, the sources said. He spied Barahona, 36, on the floor and called 911, with cops finding her and then discovering the little boy face down in the bathtub, cops said. Ten people had called 911 about the death smell, sources said. Infante, of Bethlehem, Pa., left the apartment door unlocked when he left early Monday morning, the sources said. The murder suspect was captured on security video from a neighboring apartment both arriving Sunday night and then departing about three hours later. He returned home to Bethlehem after the killings. Infante turned himself into police after his sister, Elizabeth, showed cops a photo of the suspect in a red hooded sweatshirt the same one he wore to the apartment, sources said. Infante left the sweatshirt behind after the killings, donning a scarf that was once a gift from Barahona, the sources said. According to cops, Infante was angry about paying child support for the boy he fathered back when he was a student in Barahonas science class at DeWitt Clinton High School in the Bronx. The sources indicated that he was also angry because Barahona fed their child fast food rather than making him meals, and confessed to knocking her to the floor before killing her with the cord. ______________________________________________________ Tech Support Pits From: Maryanne Re: Merging mail from different machines Dear Webby I replaced my old computer at year end, but kept using the old one for almost a month for mail. How can I pull that mail across to the new one without overwriting the mailboxes that I have there with the February stuff in it? Thanks Maryanne Dear Maryanne Go to the old machine and use your email program to rename the mailboxes that you want. For example rename "Recipes" to "Recipes-1". Then shut down the mail program on both machines and copy the Recipes-1" mailbox to the new computer, right beside where you find "Recipes". Most email programs have TWO files for each mailbox, for example IN.mbx and IN.toc . Some name them slightly different. You need both. When you start up the mail program, you will see both "Recipes" and "Recipes-1". Now you can just drag the mails, that you want to keep, from one mailbox to another. Have FUN! DearWebby >From Mona: When my son first start dating he said, "I want to marry a good woman, a smart woman, one who'll be a good mother to our kids, a woman who will make me happy." I told him he'd better make up his mind. | If you can help with the cost of the Humor Letter, please donate what you can! | |

____________________________________________________ My two-year-old cousin scared us one summer by disappearing during our lakeside vacation. More than a dozen relatives searched the forest and shoreline, and everyone was relieved when we found Matthew playing calmly in the woods. "Listen to me!" his mother, said sharply. "From now on when you want to go someplace, you tell Mommy first, okay?" Matthew thought about that for a moment and said, "Okay, Disney World." ___________________________________________________ | | The Harbin Ice Festival and other news from around the world. |
>From Freddie B. It was the end of the day when I parked my police van in front of the station. As I gathered my equipment, my K-9 partner, Jake, was barking, and I saw a little boy staring in at me. "Is that a dog you got back there?" he asked. "It sure is," I replied. Puzzled, the boy looked at me and then towards the back of the van. Finally he said, "What did he do?" Ophelia Dingbatter's News
