Harper ____________________________________________________ Jeanne ____________________________________________________ EVEN GOD ENJOYS A GOOD LAUGH There were 3 good arguments that Jesus was Black: 1. He called everyone brother . 2. He liked Gospel. 3. He couldn't get a fair trial. But then there were 3 equally good arguments that Jesus was Jewish: 1. He went into His Father's business. 2. He lived at home until he was 33. 3. He was sure his Mother was a virgin and his Mother was sure He was God. But then there were 3 equally good arguments that Jesus was Italian: 1. He talked with His hands. 2. He had wine with His meals. 3. He used olive oil. But then there were 3 equally good arguments that Jesus was a Californian: 1. He never cut His hair. 2. He walked around barefoot all the time. 3. He started a new religion. But then there were 3 equally good arguments that Jesus was an American Indian: 1. He was at peace with nature. 2. He ate a lot of fish. 3. He talked about the Great Spirit. But then there were 3 equally good arguments that Jesus was Irish: 1. He never got married. 2. He was always telling stories. 3. He loved green pastures. But the most compelling evidence of all - 3 proofs that Jesus was a woman: 1. He fed a crowd at a moment's notice when there was no food. 2. He kept trying to get a message across to a bunch of men who just didn't get it. 3. And even when He was dead, He had to get up because there still was work to do. ____________________________________________________ Reported by Rock: An INTERNATIONAL BONEHEAD AWARD has been earned by Armando Perez, Meriden, Connecticut, USA Meriden police arrest man accused in multiple crimes Meriden police have arrested a man and are searching for another suspect after both were allegedly involved in multiple crimes. On Wednesday, police arrested Armando Perez and took him into custody after a series of separate police investigations. Police had received a complaint about a suspicious vehicle on South Avenue and Fourth Street. That vehicle had matched a description of one wanted by Thomaston Police in connection to a copper theft that happened earlier in the day. The vehicle, a brown Jeep Commander, also matched the description from a shoplifting complaint at the Meriden Big Y back on July 6. When police responded to the area where the vehicle was reported, officers tried to contact the occupants. The operator, identified as Perez, reversed the car and struck the police car parked behind him. Officers opened the passenger side door of the car, but Perez put the car in drive and drove over the curb, onto the sidewalk, and headed northbound on Fourth Street. Police searched the area until dispatch received a call that a Jeep had just pulled into the parking lot of 1012 Old Colony Rd. The two occupants got out and ran away. Perez was then spotted and took off into a heavily wooded area on the Meriden/Wallingford town line. Officers were eventually able to locate Perez, who was trying to hide in the Quinnipiac River. Officers approached Perez, who refused to comply with orders. As officers tried to take Perez into custody, he attempted to take one of the officers holstered firearms. Additional officers arrived and Perez was ultimately taken into custody after a brief struggle in the water. Perez was not injured and there were no significant injuries to any officers. Hes being charged with assault on a police officer, interfering with police, criminal attempt to possess a firearm, reckless driving, disobeying officers signal, and evading responsibility. Hes being held on a $500,000 bond. DearWebby's tech support pits from: Gina re: Which browser is the best? Dear Webby There are so many browsers out there now. Which one is the best of all? Which one do you use? Gina Dear Gina Whichever one you are used to. There are few real differences, and when one browser adds a new gimmick, all the others work overtime and quickly add that too. Most of them all have the same ability, they just require different methods and hot-keys. If you do a lot of text reading, for example e-books, then use the Safari browser for that. Not for everything, because it is a bit klutzy, but it has the best font rendering and is easiest on your eyes, for long text. For general all purpose goofing around, ahem Research, Chrome seems to be best, though Millions of people will disagree and say FireFox is better. In the long run, whichever browser you get comfortable with and learn all the hot-key shortcuts for, will be best FOR YOU. I know, some people treat browsers as if they were a religion, and they argue incessantly about the benefits of their chosen browser. I don't really care. Normally I use Chrome. There are some browsers, though, that you definitely should avoid: Internet Explorer: Even Microsoft tells you that it is buggy and not secure. Maxthon: Chinese clone of Internet Explorer. which lately has added many Chrome features. Microsoft EDGE: Comes standard included with W10. It works, but nobody seems to like it. The kindest comment I have heard about it is that it lets you download Chrome. Have FUN! DearWebby Once upon a time, a Sultan was blessed with the birth of a son after years of hoping. The boy immediately became the apple of his father's eye. Just before his son's sixth birthday, the Sultan said to him, "Son, I love you very much. Your birthday is coming soon What would you like?" His son replied, "Daddy, I would like to have my own airplane." His father bought him American Airlines. Just before his son's seventh birthday, the Sultan said, "Son, you are my pride and joy. Ask what you want for your birthday. Whatever it is, it's yours." His son replied, "Daddy, I would like a boat." His father bought him the Princess Cruise Line. Just before his son's eighth birthday, the Sultan said, "Son, you bring so much happiness into my life. Anything you want, I shall get for you." His son replied, "Daddy, I would like to be able to watch cartoons." His father bought him Disney Studios. Just before his son's ninth birthday, the Sultan said, "Son, you are my life. Your birthday is coming soon. Ask what you wish. I will get it for you. His son, who had grown to love Disney, replied, "Daddy, I would like a Mickey Mouse outfit and a Goofy outfit." His father bought him the Democratic Party and CNN news. | If you can help with the cost of the Humor Letter, please donate what you can! | If you like my work,

_____________________________________________ A fine funeral was ordered for a woman who had henpecked her husband, driven her kids half nuts, scrapped with the neighbors at the slightest opportunity, and even made neurotics of the cat and dog with her explosive temper. As the casket was lowered into the grave, a violent thunderstorm broke, and the pastor's benediction was drowned out by a blinding flash of lightning, followed by terrific thunder. "Well," commented her husband, "sounds like she got told where to go." ____________________________________________ The computer swallowed grandma Yes, honestly it's true.
