Good Morning, !
It's Thursday, April 1, 2010
A rumor without a leg to stand on will get around some other way.
--- John Tudor
The public will believe anything,
so long as it is not founded on truth.

Whatever it is the government does,
sensible Americans would prefer that the
government do it to somebody else.

The Chinese Government has announced that it has leveraged
it's 61% ownership of Yahoo-China into taking over the financially
insolvent parent company. With the unlimited funds at their
disposal, they plan to not only stop Google from annoying them,
but to use the New Yahoo to beat them into bankruptcy.
They announced that there will be no noticeable changes for
Yahoo users. The yahoos are expected to blame the planned
censoring on routine Yahoo malfunctions. Since the yahoos
don't complain about those, China does not anticipate losing
significant numbers of Yahoo subscribers.
The man looked a little worried when the doctor came in to
administer his annual physical, so the first thing the doctor
did was to ask whether anything was troubling him.
"Well, to tell the truth, Doc, yes," answered the patient.
"You see, I seem to be getting forgetful. No, it's actually
worse than that. I can never remember where I park my car,
where I'm going, or what it is I'm going to do once I get there
-- if I get there. So, I really need your help. What can I do?"
The doctor mused for a moment and considered the real
priorities, then answered in his kindest tones,
"Pay me in advance."

Florida Woman Robs Bank, Citing Her 'Bucket List'
What's on your bucket list? For a Florida woman who says
she suffers from leukemia and bipolar disorder, robbing a
bank was something she wanted to do before she dies, she
told MyFoxOrlando.com.
Patricia Edwards, 51, walked into a Bank of America branch
last week in Sanford, Fla., and handed a teller a note
demanding money.
"There was no plan, no nothing, just impulse," Edwards told
the Web site in an exclusive interview from the Volusia County
Jail. "I just walked by. I said, 'I'm gonna in there... passed
a note to gain some cash and I left."
Asked why she committed the crime, Edwards said:
"Because it was something I had on my bucket list... I think
everyone should have a list of things they want to do before
they expire."
Edwards, who was arrested three days later, said she
suffers from non-terminal leukemia and bipolar disorder
and was not taking her medication at the time.
Edwards, who remains held on $20,000 bail on two counts
of robbery, told MyFoxOrlando.com she regrets the bank heist.

Dear Webby,
Lately about 95% of the time when I ask for "spell check" in
my Google gmail I get the following instead of a spell check,
something I need to make my mail look good.
Stop running script? A script on this page is cusing
Internet Explorer to run slowly. If it continues to run, your
computer might become unresponsive.
Thanks again for all your help.

Dear Ken
That's just a routine Microsoft "feature".
If you use FireFox, you will never see that problem again.
There MIGHT be a fix for that "feature", but why bother?
FireFox is way ahead and sooner or later you will upgrade
to it anyway.
Have FUN!

Dear Webby

A man was walking along the beach and found a
bottle. He looked around and didn't see anyone
so he opened it. A genie appeared and thanked
the man for letting him out. The genie said, "For
your kindness I will grant you a wish, but only
one - none of that three wishes jazz, OK?"
The man thought for a minute and said, "Well, I
have always wanted to go to Hawaii but have
never been able to because I'm afraid of flying,
and ships make me claustrophobic and ill. So,
I wish for a road to be built from here to
Hawaii."
The genie was taken aback a bit, but after some
thought said, "No, I don't think I can do that; think
about the pilings needed to hold up the highway
and how deep they would have to be to reach the
bottom of the ocean. Think of all the pavement
and steel and concrete that would be needed. I'm
sorry, you will have to choose another wish."
The man thought for a minute and then told the
genie, "There is one other thing that I have
always wanted. I would like to be able to
understand women. What makes them laugh and
cry, why do they get upset at us so easily, what
do they really mean when they say
'NOTHING is bothering them', what are their
true desires and needs? Basically...
what makes them tick?!?"
The genie stared at him for a while, and blinked
a few times. Finally, after what seemed hours,
he replied:
"So, do you want two lanes on your bridge,
or four?"

There were these two elderly people living
in a Florida mobile home park. He was a
widower and she a widow. They had known
one another for a number of years. Now,
one evening there was a community
supper in the big activity center. These two
were at the same table, across from one
another. As the meal went on, he made a
few admiring glances at her and finally
gathered up his courage to ask her,
"Will you marry me?"
After a dramatic pause and precisely six
seconds of 'careful consideration,' she
answered. "Yes. Yes, I will."
The meal ended and with a few more
pleasant exchanges and they went to their
respective places.
Next morning, he was troubled. "Did she
say 'yes' or did she say 'no'?"
He couldn't remember. Try as he would, he
just could not recall. Not even a faint
memory. With trepidation, he went to the
telephone and called her.
First, he explained to her that he didn't
remember as well as he used to. Then he
reviewed the lovely evening past. As he
gained a little more courage, he then
inquired of her,
"When I asked if you would marry me, did
you say 'Yes' or did you say 'No'?"
He was delighted to hear her say, "Why, I
said, 'Yes, yes I will' and I meant it with all
my heart."
Then she continued, "And I am so glad that
you called, because I couldn't remember
who had asked me."

Not long after their wedding, the newlyweds
awoke early one morning. The couple had
been up for quite a while before they met
again in the kitchen. Marriage was agreeing
with the husband, and he greeted his new
wife with glee and excitation that morning.
"If you'll make the toast and pour the juice,
sweetheart," said the newlywed bride,
"breakfast will be ready."
"Great! What are we having for breakfast?"
he asked
"Toast and juice." replied the bride.
