______________________________________________________ Early morning cheerfulness can be extremely obnoxious. --- William Feather (1908 - 1976) ______________________________________________________ If you like the Humor Letter, please vote! ______________________________________________________ Thanks to Sandie for this story: The owner of a golf course in Kentucky was confused about paying an invoice, so he decided to ask his secretary for some mathematical help. He called her into his office and said, "You graduated from The University of Kentucky and I need some help. If I were to give you $20, minus 14%, how much would you take off?" The secretary thought a moment, then replied, "Everything but my earrings." You gotta love those quick-witted Kentucky women! _____________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________ While we're in Kentucky.... A group of Kentucky friends went deer hunting and paired off in twos for the day. That night, one of the hunters returned alone, staggering under the weight of an eight-point buck. "Where's Henry?" the others asked. "Henry had a stroke of some kind. He's a couple of miles back up the trail," the successful hunter replied. "You left Henry laying out there and carried the deer back?" they inquired. "A tough call," nodded the hunter. "But I figured no one is going to steal Henry!" ______________________________________________________ Markhor Goat _____________________________________________________ If you like the Humor Letter, please vote!

For one Texas man, the saying, "You snooze, you lose" rings true. Robbery suspect Kanyoni Sedekiya was arrested after he was found dozing at the scene, according to police in Abilene, Texas. A police statement posted on Facebook said that early Friday morning "just before 4 a.m. police were called to a robbery in progress." Sedekiya had argued with his roommate before pulling a gun and demanding money, and "bound the man with tape and fell asleep inside the apartment," the statement read. An affidavit says that amid a verbal dispute, Sedekiya pointed a gun at his roommate and threatened to kill him before binding him with duct tape, according to the Abilene Reporter-News. Sedekiya was also accused in the report of stealing $80 from his roommate and breaking the roommate's phone. "The victim escaped the apartment while the suspect was asleep and called police from a neighbor's apartment," the police statement read. "Officers secured the area and the SWAT Team personnel arrived and were eventually able to negotiate" Sedekiya surrendering, it added. Taylor County jail records showed Sedekiya was being held Sunday on an aggravated robbery charge, with his bond set at $60,000. _________________________________ Tech Support Pits From: Richi Re: Superantispyware Dear Webby, I have a ? About superantispyware, the free version,,it seems like its not doing its job,everytime I scan it, it usually picks up more than 600 pieces of spyware. Everytime I use it,thats about everyday,so is it not doing its job or should I get rid of it? It doen't seem like its helping at all,where does all the spyware come from and go to?I do have malewarebytes also, should I have them both together? Tyvm for all your help its gr8ly appreciated... Richi Hi Richi Your machine is infected with Incredimail, and in addition to that, you got AVG. You are a real crap magnet! Superantispyware CAN be useful as a "stinger" to go after one specific spyware item, but it is not meant to be used daily. If it picks up "more than 600 pieces of spyware" daily, then it is obviously trashed. UNinstall it completely with Revo Uninstaller or something like that. Download a fresh copy IF and when you need it for a specific spyware item, and dump it after that item has been found and gotten rid of. Then scan with Malwarebytes. That gets rid of bad shit. You can also use the free Spyware-Search&Destroy, and of course CrapCleaner. They get rid of stuff, that is not really bad, but just a nuisance. Both are in my tool box at http://webby.com, and have been for decades. Have FUN! DearWebby A senior at Kentucky was overheard saying... "When the end of the world comes, I hope to be in Kentucky." When asked why, he replied he'd rather be in Kentucky because everything happens in Kentucky 20 years later than in the rest of the civilized world. | If you can help with the cost of the Humor Letter, please donate what you can! | |
Daily tip from Thriftyfun.com Wine Stains on Washable Fabrics If you spill wine on your clothing or a tablecloth, blot it immediately with a clean piece of cloth and sponge the area with cool water or club soda. If the stain is still there put salt on the stain and then pour hot (near boiling) water through the stain. Once the stain is weakened, wash the clothing normally with detergent.

____________________________________________________ A motorcycle patrolman was rushed to the hospital with an inflamed appendix. The doctor operated and after the surgery advised him that all was well. However, in the recovery room the patrolman kept feeling something pulling at the hairs on his chest. Worried that it might be a second surgery the doctor hadn't told him about, he finally got enough energy to pull his hospital gown down so he could look at what was making him so uncomfortable. Taped firmly across his hairy chest were three wide strips of adhesive tape, the kind that doesn't come off easily. Written in large black letters was the sentence... "Get well quick...from the nurse you gave a ticket to last week." ____________________________________________________ | Today, August 25, in 1718 Hundreds of colonists from France arrived in Louisiana.
