A police officer pulls over a speeding car. The officer says,
"I clocked you at 80 miles per hour, sir."

The driver says, "Gee, officer I had it on cruise control at 60,
perhaps your radar gun needs calibrating."

Not looking up from her knitting the wife says: "Now don't be
silly dear, you know that this car doesn't have cruise control."

As the officer writes out the ticket, the driver looks over
at his wife and growls, "Can't you please keep your mouth
shut for once?"

The wife smiles demurely and says, "You should be thankful
your radar detector went off when it did."

As the officer makes out the second ticket for the illegal
radar detector unit, the man glowers at his wife and says
through clenched teeth, "Damit, woman, can't you keep your
mouth shut?"

The officer frowns and says, "And I notice that you're not
wearing your seat belt, sir. That's an automatic $75 fine."

The driver says, "Yeah, well, you see officer, I had it on, but
took it off when you pulled me over so that I could get my
license out of my back pocket."

The wife says, "Now, dear, you know very well that you didn't
have your seat belt on. You never wear your seat belt when
you're driving."

And as the police officer is writing out the third ticket the
driver turns to his wife and barks, "WHY DON'T YOU PLEASE
SHUT UP??"

The officer looks over at the woman and asks, "Does
your husband always talk to you this way, Ma'am?"

"Only when he's been drinking."

Although he was a qualified meteorologist, Hopkins ran up
a terrible record of forecasting for the TV news program. He
became something of a local joke when a newspaper began
keeping a record of his predictions and showed that he'd been
wrong almost three hundred times in a single year.

That kind of notoriety was enough to get him fired.

He moved to another part of the country and applied for a similar
job. One blank on the job application called for the reason for
leaving his previous position.

Hopkins wrote, "The climate didn't agree with me."
------------------------
Sounds like Hopkins is one of the Global Warming "scientists".

Thanks to Lilly for this story:
During an attack of laryngitis I lost my voice completely
for two days.  To help me communicate with him, my husband
devised a system of taps.  
One tap meant, "Give me a kiss," 
two taps meant "Yes," 
seventeen taps meant "No,"
and 95 taps meant "Take out the garbage."

An INTERNATIONAL BONEHEAD AWARD goes to 

Jeffrey Chapman, GREAT BEND, Kan. 

Kansas man seeks to hide `murder' 
tattoo before trial

A Kansas man charged with first-degree murder is afraid the 
tattooed mirror-image letters spelling out the word "murder" 
across his neck might prejudice a jury, so he is asking for 
a professional tattoo artist to remove or cover it up.

Prosecutors say they aren't opposed to Jeffrey Chapman 
covering his tattoo, but Barton County's sheriff says 
he's against transporting Chapman to a licensed tattoo 
facility -- the only places tattoo artists are allowed 
to practice under Kansas law.

The Great Bend Tribune reports Chapman's trial is scheduled 
to start Monday in the November 2011 killing of Damon 
Galliart, whose body was found by hunters in a roadside 
ditch southwest of Great Bend.

Chapman's attorney says in a motion the tattoo would be 
extremely prejudicial if seen by a jury.

Re: Cleaning a keyboard

Dear Webby
What is the best way to clean a keyboard?
My husband's keyboard is starting to look utterly
disgusting with everything from pizza to cake permanently
attached to it.
Thanks
Ellen

Dear Ellen
Whack it upside down on a paper covered table or sidewalk
to shake crumbs and paperclips and French Fries out.
Then take a soft bath sponge and hot soapy water and while
somebody holds the keyboard upside down, scrub it thoroughly
with the sponge.

After that, just let it drip dry in the sun.

If you scrubbed hard enough, it will be like new.

Have FUN!

Daily tip from Thriftyfun.com
Apple to Relieve Heartburn
If you feel that you have heartburn, eat an apple. 
Works better than Tums or Rolaids. The acid in the apple 
neutralizes the acid in your throat, relieving the pain. 
I have reflux disease and this remedy was told to me by a Gastroenterologist. I find that it works very well. You 
may have to try different types of apples to find the one 
that works best for you. For me, it's "Pink Ladies", 
but with you, it might be "Macintosh" or "Granny Smiths".

>From Ed
My quiet Saturday morning ended abruptly when my 12-year-old   
son, Billy, and one of his friends burst through the door.   

"Hey Dad, announced Billy, "have you met the new neighbors?"   

"No."   

"Come on Dad, you have to meet them."   

"Some other time; I'm busy."   

"Dad, you have to meet them now."   

From the urgency in Billy's voice, I assumed the neighbors   
were waiting outside. I set aside my project and went to the   
front of the house. No one was there.   

"Where are they?" I asked.   

"Well, Dad," he explained, "we haven't met them yet either,   
but our baseball is in their living room!"   
  

A husband reading a newspaper says to his wife, "You know,   
honey, I think there might be some real merit to what this   
article says, that the intelligence of a father often proves   
a stumbling block to the son."   

"Well, thank heaven," said the wife, "at least our James has   
nothing standing in his way."
