My husband and I looked at him but drew complete blanks. "I'm sorry, do we know each other?" I asked. "Yeah, you was my English teacher."

Nicholas Ninow, 21, was sentenced to at least 25 years in the Kgosi Mampuru Prison yesterday for snatching a seven-year-old girl from the woman's toilet at a Dros restaurant and brutally raping her. The mother told the court that she could hear her child shouting 'please help me' as Ninow assaulted her. 'And as we pushed harder, the person inside said 'what do you want? You are disturbing me,' she added. The Kgosi Mampuru II prison has a terrifying history as the location for being the main site for hangings during the apartheid era. Prisoners are said to be kept 'on a tight leash' and gangs run the facility The girl's mother, along with other restaurant staff, were trying to get through the door but Ninow was holding it closed. When they breached the door, another witness said the man was completely naked as was the girl. It is reported that Ninow had been seen watching the girl as she played in the children's play area before he stalked her into the woman's bathroom. A mob soon gathered and tried to attack Ninow and restaurant staff had to lock him in the bathroom until the police arrived. The Kgosi Mampuru II prison has a terrifying history as the location for being the main site for hangings during the apartheid era. Prisoners are said to be 'kept on a tight leash,' according to the Sun and they reported that gangs will rape disobedient inmates and infect them with HIV. DearWebby's Tech Support Pits From: Cathi Re: Burning eyes Dear Webby, Your suggestion to Martina was excellent and probably will work. If it doesn't she may want to determine if the overhead fluorescent lighting in her office is the problem. I experience the same symptoms from fluorescent lights, particularly the energy saver type. My optometrist explained it too me, but I don't remember the details. Thanks for keeping me laughing. Cathi Dear Cathi Change the monitor refresh rate from 60 Hz to 72Hz or anything other than 60. In addition to that, tilt the monitor forward a bit. Have FUN! DearWebby Automatically move ALL your settings and programs. During rehearsal, the high school Music Director was beside himself. The cymbal player in the band was constantly coming in at the wrong time with his cymbal clash. The young man maintained that his entry point gave a much better effect and that he wouldn't play it as written. When the Music Director was asked by the Principal why he kicked the young musician out of the band, he replied, "It was a simple case of cymbal disobedience." | If you can help with the cost of the Humor Letter, please donate what you can! | |
Two Venusians are walking down the street. One Venusian finds a little mirror, looks in it, again, and again. Puzzled, she says to the other one, "I just know I've seen this face before!" "Give it to me", says the other Venusian. She looks in the mirror and says, "Of course, you silly! It's me!!" ___________________________________________________ Daily tip from Thriftyfun.com Thriftyfun.com font color="#009990"> Finding Leaks in an Air Mattress Get a thin sheet of tissue paper, the kind you use for wrapping gifts. Make sure the room is relatively quiet and the mattress is full. Lay the tissue paper on the mattress and let it rest. If the hole is under the paper, it will make a very audible hissing noise. If you don't hear any hissing after a few seconds, move the paper to cover another area. By Brian ____________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________ The fourth-grade teacher had to leave the room for a few minutes. When she returned, she found the children in perfect order. Everybody was sitting absolutely quiet. She was shocked and stunned and said, "I've never seen anything like it before. This is wonderful. But, please tell me, what came over all of you? Why are you so well behaved and quiet?" Finally, after much urging, Do spoke up and said, "Well, one time you said that if you ever came back and found us quiet, you would drop dead." ___________________________________________________ Two good Catholic boys passed an Episcopalian minister. At the sight of the reversed collar, one of them automatically said, "Hello, Father." The other boy elbowed him in the ribs. "He's no father, you dummy," said the second youth, "He's married and got three kids!" ___________________________________________________ The most remarkable thing about Ernie's mother is that for thirty years she served the family nothing but leftovers. The original meal has never been found. __________________________________________________ | Ophelia Dingbatter's NewsNo sermon and not suitable for church, just jokes and fun for grownups.
