There really wasnt much there, his 8 ,,10 and like 13 yr old kids were all bored, His wife told the kids , "Well, gee why dont you play solitaire?" All 3 chimed back in unison, "But Mom, we have no computers here." ____________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________ Smith emailed his supervisor in the front office. "Boss," he wrote, "my mother-in-law is doing some heavy house-cleaning tomorrow, and my wife wants me to go help with the attic and the garage, moving and hauling stuff." "We're short-handed, Smith," the boss replied. "I can't give you the day off." "Thanks, boss," Smith wrote back, "I knew I could count on you!" ____________________________________________________ An INTERNATIONAL BONEHEAD AWARD has been earned by Jimmy Keonhothy, Fresno, California, USA Dopey driver sentenced for murder of unborn baby in Fresno A life sentence is awaiting the Fresno man who got high on meth, got in a high-speed police chase, and killed an unborn baby in a crash last year. By the time Fresno police pulled their weapons on Jimmy Keonhothy, it was too late. Body camera video showed him speeding away from officers, running two stop signs and eventually crashing his Honda Pilot into a car on Olive. The crash badly injured Aura Ayala Escalante and killed her unborn child. "These events were extremely disturbing and the tragedy that occurred thereafter is certainly something that not just Mr. Keonhothy by serving his sentence will be living with, but the mother-to-be will always remember the way her pregnancy ended," said Judge Houry Sanderson as she prepared to sentence Keonhothy. Ayala was 42 years old, 25 weeks pregnant, and on her way home from a pregnancy checkup with her OB/GYN. Doctors performed an emergency c-section later the same day, but they couldn't save the baby and they say Ayala herself suffered some cognitive damage. Keonhothy admitted he was on meth at the time and a blood draw that was also recorded on body camera video confirmed it. A jury convicted him of second-degree murder and other charges in May. Prosecutors made the case for murder by arguing he acted with malice because of a prior conviction for auto theft. That time, he also ran from police, accelerated through a residential neighborhood, blasted past a stop sign, and narrowly avoided a crash. A judge warned him about the risk involved in high-speed chases, but he did it again. This time, he won't be driving again for a long time. "You have now caused the ultimate price to someone else: the loss of a loved one, a future child, somebody that person was looking forward to having in their life and you've caused yourself to spend a substantial amount of your life in prison all because you are unable to make good decisions," Judge Sanderson said. Keonhothy will have to serve 15 years to life for the murder plus an extra seven for evading police and causing an injury and death. DearWebby's tech support pits from: Janet re: Slow W10 Dear Webby My W10 is getting slower than I can toerate. Yeah, I know, you told me two hundred times, or more, to resist the brainwash and to just clean up my act. Well, I am on W10, and it is now slower than my W7 ever was. Now what? Janet Dear Janet Bloatware and trialware refer to PC manufacturers' habit of loading crippled versions of commercial software on a new computer in the hope that some will upgrade to paid editions, and earn them a commission. Most of that is totally useless crap. Quite possibly you also have some programs that you or your spouse or kids wanted to try and see if they were any good, and have promptly forgotten about. Download SHOULD I REMOVE IT. https://en.softonic.com/download/should-i-remove-it/windows/post-download It is free. it will list all the stuff you got, and tell you if you really need it. Some stuff you can remove right there, other stuff you have to open your REVO Uninstaller. Between those two programs you can clean up your machine like it should have been when you bought it. It still won't be as fast as W7, but a lot faster than it is now. One word of caution: EDGE If you are using the Microsoft EDGE browser, which is usually slithered in with W10, you CAN remove it. However, before removing it, install Chrome or FireFox. Otherwise you will be out in nthe cold, without ANY browser. Have FUN! DearWebby An English soldier, an American solider and a Russian soldier found themselves sharing a table in a Bosnian restaurant, and the conver sation turned towards how well fed each of them was. "In the Russian army we have 2000 calories of food a day" said the Russian. "Well", said the Englishman, "In the British army we are given 4000 calories of food a day." "That's nothing", said the American, "in the US army we have 8000 calories of food a day". At this the Russian got very annoyed. "Nonsense", he said, "how could one man eat that much cabbage!!!." | If you can help with the cost of the Humor Letter, please donate what you can! | If you like my work,
