"You know, since we last met, my audience has increased!" the first said. "Congratulations!" the second one said. "How did you do it? By marriage or by adoption?

The pastor has the children cup their hands, and when he gives them the Host in this practise case, a piece of bread- he says: "God be with you." Apparently this made quite an impression on Kelli. She came home and told her mother to cup her hands and bend down. Kelli took a piece of bread from her sandwich, placed it in her mother's hands, and whispered, in her most angelic voice: "God will get you." ____________________________________________________ Reported by Rock An INTERNATIONAL BONEHEAD AWARD has been earned by Moises Vaca 22, Stockton, California, USA Man arrested for having sex with drugged 14-year-old girl while parked in the middle of the road It didn't take CHP officers long to realize that a car stopped in the middle of Belmont Avenue early Tuesday morning was posing much more than just a road hazard. The Fresno County Sheriff's Office says inside the Chrysler Sedan, officers found 22-year-old Moises Vaca of Stockton having sex with a 14-year-old girl. The girl was sent to the hospital for treatment of an unknown substance. It's still not known what the relationship is between the man and the teenager or how long they have been in contact, but authorities believe he traveled from Stockton to meet up with her. "We think there might be ties to human trafficking in this case," says Tony Botti with the Fresno County Sheriff's Office. "We do know that our victim belongs to a group home in the Fresno area. Just based on our experiences, when you have victims like this and just looking at the circumstances of the suspect, there might be a bigger story here." The man's 18-month-old son was also found asleep in the back seat of the car. He is now in the care of Child Protective Services. Debra Rush founded Breaking the Chains, an organization that helps survivors of human Trafficking. "The fact that this child came from a group home made her 80 percent more likely to be trafficked," she said. She says Fresno's location between LA and the Bay Area makes it a hot spot for sex trafficking. "We see buyers who don't want to be exposed in their own communities flooding into here," she said. Vaca is now facing multiple felony charges, including rape of a drugged victim and sex with a minor. This is the first time law enforcement has dealt with him locally, but detectives will be combing through his past. They say they still have more to learn from the victim. ____________________________________________________ If you can help with the cost of the Humor Letter, please donate what you can! ______________________________________________________ From: Elaine Re: Printer weight Dear Webby, Why are laser printers so much heavier than inkjet? I thought it was time to finally get a laser printer, so I had a look at a few at Staples and luckily tried to turn one around to see the back side. There is NO WAY I could lug one of those up my stairs and into where it needs to be. WHY? Elaine Dear Elaine An ink squirter has just a small, lightweight printhead, that buzzes back and forth over the paper. A modern Laser has 4 or more of everything, one for every color, and it even retracts the paper and runs it through again to print the back side too. And after each phase it melts the toner into the paper. There IS actually lot going on. The simple and light weight laser printers of the 90s are long gone. You can try telling the salesman there that you will buy the printer, if they deliver and install it. With items that cost more than $50 they often do that. Since they last many years, it would even be worth paying a deliver charge. I managed to cart my Lexmark home and into my office a year or two ago, but when that one expires, on the next one I will demand delivery. Have FUN!

Linda kept herself busy playing with toys in the waiting room until she noticed that her mom was resting, her eyes closed. With about six other patients waiting, Linda marched up to her mother, looked her straight in the face and shook her shoulder. "Mommy," she yelled, "wake up! This is not church!" ____________________________________________ A secretary came in late for work the third day in a row. Her boss called her into his office and said, "Now look Sharon, I know we had a wild fling for a while, but that's over. I expect you to conduct yourself like any other employee around here. Who told you you could come and go as you please around here?" Sharon simply smiled, lit up a cigarette, and while exhaling said, "My doctor told me.....
