 While working at a Pizza Parlor I observed a man ordering
a small pizza  to go. He appeared to be alone and the cook
asked him if he would  like  it cut into 4 pieces or 6.

He though about it for some time before  responding.
"Just cut it into 4 pieces; I don't think I'm hungry 
enough to  eat 6.

The boss ordered one of his men to dig a hole eight feet
deep. After the job was completed the boss returned and
explained an error had been made and the hole wouldn't
be needed. "Fill 'er up," he ordered.

The worker did as he'd been told. But he ran into a problem.
He couldn't get all the dirt packed back into the hole
without leaving a mound on top. He went to the office
and explained his problem.

The boss snorted, "Honestly! The kind of help you get
these days! There's obviously only one thing to do. You'll
have to dig that hole deeper!"

Australia decided to dump their Carbon Tax, since it
is obviously rather presumptious and silly to pretend
that human efforts are in the same league as volcanoes
and forest fires.

An INTERNATIONAL BONEHEAD AWARD goes to 

Roger Wayne Beasley Jr., 30, BILOXI, Miss. 

Dope dealer, who fled into a Police Academy

 A man who fled from a traffic stop on U.S. 90 unknowingly 
ran into a building where police academy training was 
in session.

Roger Wayne Beasley Jr., 30, apparently was so focused on 
getting away that he didn't notice marked cars parked 
outside the Harrison County Law Enforcement Training Academy 
building on Leggett Drive, Police Chief John Miller said.

An officer had recognized Beasley driving a vehicle Wednesday 
and knew he didn't have a license, Miller said.
Beasley turned on to Chalmers Drive, jumped out of his 
vehicle and ran off, so an officer jumped out of his car and 
ran after him.

"He got to the door and was about to go through," Miller said.
He was outnumbered.

Police arrested Beasley on charges of possession with intent 
to distribute crack cocaine, resisting arrest, no driver's 
license, careless driving, improper lane change, 
resisting arrest and failure to comply.

Beasley was released from the Harrison County jail on bonds 
that total $51,670.

Re: Nuisance Pop-Up in movies

Dear Webby
Why do I get a small pop up in the middle of a video asking 
me to allow or deny someone to store information on my 
computer? It has no X to delete it and it stays right in 
the middle of the video

Thanks for any help you can suggest.

Dear Vi
That is from your Adobe Flash Player.
Right-click the thilly Pop-Up
Select Global Settings
and let it have 10 MB or so space for temp files.
After that it will stop being a nuisance.

Have FUN!

Daily tip from Thriftyfun.com
No-Blow Picnic Tablecloth
When I was a kid, we picnicked a LOT in the summer. 
My mom got tired of the table cloth blowing up and 
tipping everything, so she began packing a twin-sized 
fitted sheet in the basket. It fit the public tables 
perfectly, and no more blowing tablecloths. In fact, 
she won a similar tip contest with this back in the 
late 50's, but I have not seen it mentioned since then.

The children were lined up in the cafeteria of a 
Catholic elementary school for lunch. At the head 
of the table was a large pile of apples.
The nun made a note, and posted on the apple tray: 

"Take only ONE. God is watching."

Moving further along the lunch line, at the other 
end of the table was a large pile of chocolate chip 
cookies. A child had written a note, 
"Take all you want. God is watching the apples."


The psychiatrist was interviewing a first-time patient.
"You say you're here," he inquired, "because your family
is worried about your taste in socks?"

"That's correct," muttered the patient. "I like wool socks."

"But that's perfectly normal," replied the doctor. "Many people
prefer wool socks to those made from cotton or acrylic. In fact,
I myself like wool socks."

"You DO?" exclaimed the man. "With oil and vinegar or
just a squeeze of lemon?"
