As the evening was drawing to a close, the master of ceremonies for the night proceeded to hand out bottles of champagne to the graduates who had traveled the farthest distance to attend the reunion, the graduate who had been married the longest time, the graduate who had become the most successful, etc. Laura wondered if she was going to get a prize too. Sure enough, the master of ceremonies called out her name. "Laura, you win with 11 kids." and then, trying to be clever, he added in "And champagne is only half the prize. The other half is a giant, economy size bottle of aspirin." "Don't bother with the aspirin," Laura replied. "It's obvious with these many kids that I've never had a headache." ____________________________________________________ Coyote pups, Alberta ___________________________________________________ Keli and Greg were involved in a petty argument, both of them unwilling to admit they might be in error. "I'll admit I'm wrong," said Greg in a conciliatory attempt, "if you'll admit I'm right." Keli agreed and, like the dear she is, insisted Greg go first. "I'm wrong," Greg said. With a twinkle in her eye, Keli responded, "You're right!" ____________________________________________________ If you can help with the cost of the Humor Letter, please donate what you can! _____________________________________________________ Recently in Traffic Court, a man who received an expensive parking ticket testified that a uniformed Policeman had given his OK for the man to park there. The Judge asked the man if he would recognize the Officer if he ever saw him again, and the man replied that he would. The Judge then said, "Good. When you see the Officer again, tell him he owes you 57 dollars. Next!" ____________________________________________________ A professor was giving a big test one day to his students. He handed out all of the tests and went back to his desk to wait. Once the test was over the students all handed the tests back in. The professor noticed that one of the students had attached a $100 bill to his test with a note saying "A dollar per point." The next class the professor handed the tests back out. This student got back his test and $64 change. ____________________________________________________ DeaWebby's Tech Support Pits From: Fran Re: Why mark "Top" on paper? Dear Webby Amy mentioned that she marked "TOP" on the printer paper. What is that all about? Thanks Fran Dear Fran Once upon a time, long, long ago, in the middle Stone age, printers made a big machine gun style racket, and the print jobs emerged one line at a time, with the printed stuff visible on top. That was great for programmers, who wanted to see the results one line at a time. However, in the early 90s the magazine writers started a big howl about anybody walking by being able to read that they were writing to their girlfriend instead of work related stuff. So most printer manufactrurers redesigned the printers so that they produced paper with the print hidden. Some kept the old system, and we had chaos ever since, especially with double sided printing. So, whenever you get a new printer, put a piece of scrap paper on top of the stack, scribble "TOP" on it, and print a page. That will tell you if what is on top of the paper supply is the side, that gets printed on. It is better to print one piece of scrap than to ruin a stack of expensive business card stock or photo paper. Once you know that, you can simply remember that, for example, it prints on the side, that is on top in the input tray, or on the bottom of it, until you replace the printer. Have FUN!

One bright little girl replied, "Because most of the people are sleeping." __________________________________________ Six-year old Angie, and her four-year old brother, Joel, were sitting together in church. Joel giggled, sang and talked out loud. Finally, his big sister had had enough. "You're not supposed to talk out loud in church." "Why? Who's going to stop me?" Joel asked. Angie pointed to the back of the church and said, "See those two big men standing by the door? They're hushers." _______________________________________________ >From Ellen: My grandson was visiting one day when he sked, "Grandma, do you know how you and God are alike?" I mentally polished my halo, while I asked, "No, how are we alike?"

>From Erica I had been teaching my three-year old daughter, Caitlin, the Lord's prayer. For several evenings at bedtime, she would repeat after me the lines from the prayer. Finally, she decided to go solo. I listened with pride as she carefully enunciated each word, right up to the end of the prayer: "Lead us not into temptation," she prayed, "but deliver us some E-mail. Amen." ___________________________________________________ | Today, June 10, in 1776, The Continental Congress appointed a committee to write a Declaration of Independence. 1793, The Jardin des Plantes zoo opened in Paris.
