An INTERNATIONAL BONEHEAD AWARD has been earned by Jeremy Van Ert, 38, Marshfield, Wisconsin Man locked in beer cooler overnight drinks beer, arrested for theft and for breaking probation. A Marshfield man is behind bars after police say he was locked inside a beer cooler at a convenience store, had several drinks, and then fled. Jeremy Van Ert, 38, was charged with retail theft and is currently behind bars on a probation hold. Authorities said Van Ert walked inside the Marshfield Kwik Trip on Central Avenue on Tuesday night, before midnight. They said the man was automatically locked inside when the clock hit midnight. "The subject found himself locked in the beer cooler, knew that Kwik Trip would not sell him any beer, so he decided to remain in the beer cooler," said Marshfield Police Chief Rick Gramza. "A customer came by the beer cooler at about 6 a.m. and saw him inside." According to the police report, Van Ert drank an 18 ounce bottle of Icehouse Beer and three cans of Four Loko. He also fell over a stack of 30 pack Busch Light Cans. "This is unique, I've been here twenty years. I've heard of people being locked inside of buildings, never inside of a beer cooler," Gramza said. Van Ert fled the scene and was later arrested by police. Gramza said Van Ert is currently in the Wood County Jail on a probation hold from an unrelated case. That probation required him to remain sober. Kwik Trip officials told police they will be reviewing their security. _________________________________ Tech Support Pits From: Annette Re: Missing child email Dear Webby, I got an email about a missing 14 yr. old. her name is Ashley Flores, is this true or another eamil someone is sending around? Thanks, Annette. Dear Annette It's just a hoax sent out in order to collect the addreses of the most gullible people on the net. Don't even bother to send back a correction, just trash it. Whenever there is a request to forward stuff to your friends, dump it. The same on AOL or FaceBook. Any appeal to forward something, is bad, and often contains malicious paylaods. If you see an appeal to forward, dump it. Have FUN! DearWebby A teenaged boy with spiked hair, nose ring, and baggy clothes was overheard saying to his friend, "I don't really like to dress like this, but it's the only thing that gets me out of having to go shopping with Mom." | If you can help with the cost of the Humor Letter, please donate what you can! | |

I back it with good flannel and leave some pockets on it and I leave the seams on the wrong side to give a chenile effect after a few washings. Honey Uses for Socks Here are some uses for unmatched socks. Make a sock puppet with some sewn on buttons for eyes. Put a sock on your hand and use it as a dust rag. Slip a sock over a yard stick and secure it with a rubber band and to clean under your fridge. Save them for the winter when you need to wear two pairs. Tip provided by Thriftyfun.com ____________________________________________________ Thanks to Rex for this report: A herd of buffalo can move only as fast as the slowest buffalo. When the herd is hunted, it is the slowest and weakest ones at the back that are killed first. This natural selection is good for the herd as a whole, because the general speed and health of the whole group keeps improving by the regular killing of the weakest members. In much the same way, the human brain can only operate as fast as the slowest brain cells. Intake of alcohol, we all know, kills brain cells, but naturally it attacks the slowest and weakest brain cells first. In this way, regular consumption of beer eliminates the weaker brain cells, making the brain a faster and more efficient machine. Thasch why you alwaysch feel schmarter after a few -bburp- beersch. __________________________________________________ The doctor looked at the woman who had come to him for an examination. "Mrs. Smith, I have some good news for you." The woman said, "I'm glad to hear that doctor, but I'm Miss Smith, not Mrs." "Oh. Well, in that case Miss Smith," said the doctor without changing expression, "I have some bad news for you." ___________________________________________________ | Ophelia Dingbatter's NewsNo sermon and not suitable for church, just jokes and fun for grownups.
