_____________________________________________________ All animals are equal but some animals are more equal than others. --- George Orwell (1903 - 1950) _____________________________________________________ The wife heard her husband come home much earlier than his usual time. She said, "Hon, what happened to your lodge meeting?" "It was postponed." he replied. "The wife of the Grand Exalted Potentate wouldn't let him attend tonight." _____________________________________________________ Quick brown cow jumps over the lazy dogs. Western Queensland, Australia Wayne Lefler ___________________________________________________ "My uncle ran for Senate last year." "Really? What does he do now?" "Nothing. He got elected." ___________________________________________________ An INTERNATIONAL BONEHEAD AWARD has been earned by Cedric Moore, 27, Cape Girardeau, Missouri, USA Felon sought for sucker punching of 12 year old boy Video of the assault Police are searching for a convicted felon who sucker punched a 12-year-old boy while the child was dancing on a Missouri street corner, an attack that was captured on a Facebook Live broadcast. Investigators allege that Cedric Moore, 27, walloped the child as he performed Friday evening in downtown Cape Girardeau. The boy was accompanied by his dance instructor and another minor. Moore has been named in an arrest warrant accusing him of second-degree felony assault and first-degree child endangerment in connection with the unprovoked July 4 attack on Ethan Hagler. Moore is pictured in the mugshot. When apprehended, he will have to post $50,000 bond to gain his release from jail. Video of the assault allowed police to quickly identify Moore as the assailant. The identity of his getaway driver is unknown. Moore was convicted last year of domestic assault, and was placed on five years probation in that felony case. So in addition to charges related to the assault of Hagler, Moore is likely to face a probation violation count related to his 2019 case. DearWebby's Tech Support Pits From: Lee Re: Photo App Hi Webby, I work with a Dell W10 laptop and everything is fine EXCEPT what ever it uses to open photos. It seems to open .jpg and similar files very slowly, if at all. What non-Microsoft app should I use? Thanks, Lee Dear Lee I have used JASC Paint Shop Pro since the mid 80s, long before the net. I kept renewing it until the mid 90's, but then stayed with Version 7. It still works fine on W7 and on W10 There are hundreds of graphics programs available. If you have too much money, Photoshop is reputed to be very nice. If you do 8 foot tall, 36 foot wide billboards, and also a lot of stamp sized miniatures, then get GIMP. It is free, but you definitely have to read the instructions. As you can probably imagine, I love PSP. EVERY single picture on the Humor Letter since the start of the Internet has gone through PSP. I even painted the jail house bars on the mug shots with it, and just paste them onto the properly resized mug shots. And of course also the nice picture of the day, no matter whether the picture is from my own camera or salvaged from the Internet. What I really love about PSP is that I can pretty well run it with hot-keys. Sure, you can mouse around all you want, but if you are in a hurry, you can do it with hot keys. I am not an affiliate and don't get a penny if you get PSP. I simply love it and over the decades I got pretty good at it, as you can tell by my pictures. Just find one graphics program, that you like. See if they have a forum. Lurk on that and watch what people say. If they do a lot of complaining and make it sound difficult, try the next one. When you find one, that seems good, try it. Some are free, some have a 30 day money back deal. Once you have settled on one, stick with it and totally ignore all others, just like you were married to it. No matter how complicated it is, you will soon get as good at it as I am with PSP. Keep in mind, if your laptop was originally a fast W7 machine, it will be a slow lemon with W10. The main purpose of W10 is to whip you into buying a brand new Chinese made W10 machine. Have FUN!

She said they still didnt fit. Well, said the dentist Ill do it again this time, but no more. Theres no reason why these shouldnt fit your mouth easily. Who said anything about my mouth? the woman answered.They dont fit in the glass! ____________________________________________ >From Milly My boyfriend and I were lunching at a sidewalk cafe in Huntington Beach, CA. Our waitress looked like a real surfer girl - athletic with a great tan and blond hair. Mulling over the menu, my guy asked her if the roast beef was rare.
