The travel agent says, "Listen, friend, this is my first day here, but I know about all the details of that crumby $49.00 offer, and believe me, you DON'T want it. Take the next best offer, which is only $1,399.00." "Oh, no you don't," says Joe, "you're not going to catch ME with that bait and switch. The ad says `$49.00 to Hawaii,' and THAT's what I want." "Okay," says the agent, who takes his money then grabs a baseball bat from under the desk and hits him on the head. Joe wakes up a few hours later, on a raft out in the Pacific Ocean! He looks around, and there's NOTHING, only he and another guy on the raft. "What are we going to do?" cries our hero, "surely they'll send a ship for us." "I don't think so," responds his new-found travelling companion, "they didn't LAST YEAR." ___________________________________________________ If you can spare a coin, PLEASE hit PayPal with it! ___________________________________________________ The tough businessman was feeling very ill and went to the doctor. The medical man examined him and backed away, saying: "I'm sorry to tell you this, but you have an advanced case of highly infectious rabies. You must have had it for some time. It will almost certainly be fatal." "Could you give me a pen and paper?" said the businessman. "Do you want to write your will?" "No, I want to make a list of all the people with overdue invoices, and then I am going out for a few bites." ____________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________ A lady lost her handbag in the bustle of holiday shopping. It was found by an honest little boy and returned to her. Looking in her purse, she commented, "Hmmm.... That's funny. When I lost my bag there was a $20 bill in it. Now there are twenty $1 bills." The boy quickly replied, "That's right, lady. The last time I found a purse, the owner didn't have any change for a reward." ____________________________________________________ There was a young Scottish boy called Angus who decided to try life in Australia. He found an apartment in a small block and settled in. After a couple of weeks his mother called from Aberdeen to see how her son was doing in his new life. 'I'm fine, ' Angus said. 'But there are some really weird people living in these apartments. One woman cried all day long, another lies on her floor moaning, and there is a guy next door to me who bangs his head on the wall all the time.' 'Well, ma laddie,' says his mother, 'I suggest you don't associate with people like that.' 'Oh,' says Angus, 'I don't, Mam, I don't. No, I just stay inside my apartment all day and night, playing me bagpipes.' ___________________________________________________ Reported by Rock An INTERNATIONAL BONEHEAD AWARD has been earned by Mohamed Ryan Elnounw, early 30, TEMPE, Ariz, USA Tempe high school teacher accused of having an inappropriate relationship with a student A Tempe high school teacher is facing charges and possible prison time after allegedly having an inappropriate relationship with a student. Court documents say that the male teacher is in his early 30s and has been at the school for three years. The relationship allegedly started in September 2021. A teenage student reportedly came forward and told her mom exactly what happened, saying that when she broke off the contact, the teacher allegedly became aggressive and jealous. Seniors at Mountain Pointe High School are reacting to the news that one of their own teachers, Mohamed Ryan Elnounw, is facing four counts of sexual abuse for an alleged inappropriate relationship with a student. "Crazy. I was just like wow. It's pretty shocking that happened. This is real life," a student said. Another saying, "It's just kind of like dang, that's kind of crazy." Court documents detail the numerous incidents that allegedly happened after the victim and Elnounw started to confide in each other about their personal problems. The relationship escalated and the victim reportedly explained multiple instances of the teacher touching her, pressing his genitals against her, kissing her, asking to see nude photos of her and then telling her he masturbated to those photos. Those same court documents say Elnounw, also known as "Coach Mo" according to students, admitted to accidentally touching her genitals multiple times and that she "accidentally" touched his genitals as well. The principal of the high school sent a note to concerned parents after the arrest that said in part, "This arrest was the result of an investigation that began after it was brought to our attention that there was an inappropriate interaction with a student. This individual has not been on campus since April 7 and will not be returning to campus." The school district says detectives have not identified any additional victims, but it remains an ongoing investigation. ____________________________________________________ If you can help with the cost of the Humor Letter, please donate what you can! ______________________________________________________ DearWebby's Tech Support Pits From: Sandra Re: Wacky area code Dear DearWebby I got an email from some wacky spammer, who claimed she needed help with her page, but had no URL, but instead a phone number. DUH! And a name: Darlynda May Naturally, I did not call that number. The number was 256-735-3926 Where is that? Sandra Dear Sandra 256-735-3926 is in Uganda That was smart of you to NOT call that number. When in doubt about a phone number, don't call, just tell me. Somehow, those scammers seem to like me, and give me lots of experience dealing with them. Today I got a message from some bimbo, who was pretending to be a minister named Mary Gale Hinrichsen. Well, I gave her the benefit of the doubt, even though I had definite doubts. Sure enough, within minute she asked me if I had gotten the good news, and that I needed to "contact the agent". Yeah, right. That phrase triggers a predictable response: "GO SUCK A BILLY GOAT YOU USELESS SCAMMER!!!" Followed instantly by blocking her. I used to have a long list of cusswords, that I ran through the Dialetizer and ran it with a text-to-peech into Audacity, and linked the MP3 from the desktop, but somehow lost it when changing computers. Since then I just honor the BillyGoat. If you run a list of cusswords read by the Swedish Chef, or the Redneck Hillbilly, you wil probably wet your knickers. While that is playing you got plenty of time to permanently block the scammer. Have FUN!

As the high school teacher was correcting essays written by her students she read, "Pedro jumped on his burrow and rode off into the sunset." She wrote at the bottom of the page, "You obviously have problems with homonyms. A burrow is a hole in the ground. A burro is an ass. At your age it's time to learn the difference." ______________________________________________ The student - not necessarily a well-prepared student - sat in his life science classroom staring at a question on the final exam paper. The question directed: "Give four advantages of breast milk." What to write? He sighed, and began to scribble whatever came into his head, hoping for the best: 1. No need to boil. 2. Cats can't steal it. 3. Available whenever necessary. Um. So far so good - maybe. But the exam demanded a four-part answer. Again, what to write? Once more he sighed. He frowned. He scowled. Then sighed again. But suddenly, he brightened. He grabbed his pen, and triumphantly he scribbled his definitive answer: 4. Available in attractive containers. ______________________________________________ Ophelia Dingbatter's NewsNo sermon and not suitable for church, just jokes and fun for grownups.
