Today's Bonehead Award: Oswego Twp. Man Sentenced to 20 Years in 2018 Drug, Gun Case __________________________________________ A circus owner walked into a bar to find everyone crowded about a table watching a little show. On the table was an upside-down pot and a duck tap dancing on it. The circus owner was so impressed that he offered to buy the duck from its owner. After some wheeling and dealing they settled for $10,000 for the duck and the pot. Three days later the circus owner runs back to the bar in anger, "Your duck is a rip-off! I put him on the pot before a whole audience and he didn't dance a single step!" "That's strange" said the duck's former owner, "did you remember to light the candle under the pot?" __________________________________________ __________________________________________ From Evelyn A child asked his father, "How were people born?" So his father said, "Adam and Eve made babies, then their babies became adults and made babies, and so on." The child then went to his mother, asked her the same question and she told him, "We were monkeys then we evolved to become like we are now." The child ran back to his father and said, "You lied to me!" His father replied, "No, your mom was talking about her side of the family." ___________________________________________________ An INTERNATIONAL BONEHEAD AWARD has been earned by Jasper Clark, 44, Dolphin, Connecticut Oswego Twp.

Dear Webby, How often and how frequently do I have to reboot my W10 machine? Thanks Nelson Dear Nelson The same as with W7. The fewer times you reboot, the less damage Windows does. If you have MalwareBytes running, then the machine is protected. Just relax. You may have to reboot now and then when you are installing or UNinstalling something. That is enough. Have FUN! DearWebby
