Good Morning, Do! Today is Saturday, March 14 What happened to Gullible Warming? Got a raging blizzard howling around the house. It's fun to walk, or sail, downwind, but coming back against the blizzard is rather painful. If it is still going on tonight, I'll wear the big parka for my walk. ___________________________________________________ Today, March 14 in 1958 The U.S. government suspended arms shipments to the Batista government of Cuba. Russia continued supplying the Communists. ______________________________________________________ You don't stop laughing because you grow old.

DearWebby's Tech Support Pits From: James Re: Uninstall Windows Dear Webby, how do i uninstall their new version??it has messed up everything on my computer! tried the normal way to install it but it wont if theres a windows window open.Which has to be to use the control panel..Do i need to reset my whole laptop?I am running win10 on top of it lol James Dear James Unfortunately, once you have sold your soul, any remorse is too late. If your laptop originally was a W7, you can back up all the files, that you want to keep, like spreadsheets, documents, addresses, mail, paintings, pictures, etc., onto a removable USB hard drive or camera chips, double and triple check to make sure you got everything, then contact the maker of that machine and ask how to do a factory reset. That will nuke everything and put the machine back to the way it was, when it left the factory in China. Good Luck! Have FUN! DearWebby

I went golfing with my ex one time, and he told me I asked too many questions! Jill: Well, I'm sure you were just trying to understand the game. What questions did you ask? Mary: I thought I asked legitimate questions..like, "Why did you hit the ball into that lake?" _____________________________________________ An Asian man visiting New York walks into a bank to exchange 20,000 yen and receives $150.

"Oh yeh?" the Asian man says, "fluc u amelicans, too!" ____________________________________________ The ninety-five year old woman at the nursing home received a visit from one of her fellow church members. "How are you feeling?" the visitor asked. "Oh," said the lady, "I'm just worried sick!" "What are you worried about, dear?" her friend asked. "You look like you're in good health. They are taking care of you, aren't they?" "Yes, they are taking very good care of me." "Are you in any pain?" she asked. "No, I have never had a pain in my life." "Well, what are you worried about?" her friend asked again. The lady leaned back in her rocking chair and slowly explained her major worry. "Every close friend I ever had has already died and gone on to heaven. I'm afraid they're all wondering where I went." ____________________________________________ | No sermon and not suitable for church, just jokes and fun for grownups. Read it on-line or subscribe.
