Not getting subscriptions on Hotmail
Monday, June 13, 2011, 10:34 AM
Good Morning, !
It's Monday, June 13
Today the postal service here in Canada goes onto a 3 day
per week schedule in urban areas.
How did that come about?
The people hit back at the union, trying to hold our mail for
ransom.
"Fine, if you want to play terrorist, then we will simply not
use the mail. There ARE alternatives nowadays!"
Most likely next week they will be cut to two days per week.
And then the lay-offs will start. "Due to the low volume of
mail, your sevices are no longer required."
Seems to be the end of traditional unions holding the
population for ransom.
Have FUN!

A fine funeral was ordered for a woman who had henpecked
her husband, driven her kids half nuts, scrapped with the
neighbors at the slightest opportunity, and even made
neurotics of the cat and dog with her explosive temper.
As the casket was lowered into the grave, a violent
thunderstorm broke, and the pastor's benediction was drowned
out by a blinding flash of lightning, followed by terrific thunder.
"Well," commented one of the mourners, "sounds like she
got told where to go."

Man texts cop in drug deal
PORTER, Texas, June 8 (UPI) -- Texas police say a mother and
son were arrested on narcotics charges by an officer who
received the son's text message outlining a drug deal.
A police statement said Travis Edwin Huffman, 25, of Porter,
Texas, allegedly was trying to arrange the sale of narcotic
pain pills but mis-sent his intended text to the phone of a
Montgomery County police officer.
Precinct 4 undercover narcotics investigators Lt. Mark Seals
and Sgt. Ricky Warwick arranged a buy Tuesday in the
parking lot of the Porter Walmart. After Huffman sold police
hydrocodone pills out of his car, he was arrested,
KTRK-TV, Houston, reported Wednesday.
Police then went to the home Huffman shared with his mother,
Kimberly "Butterbean" Meadows, 43, where they found
marijuana.
After police took Meadows into custody for the marijuana,
she allegedly told them she gave Huffman the hydrocodone
pills to sell so they would split the proceeds. Huffman
allegedly corroborated his mother's statement and both
mother and son are now charged with delivery of a controlled
substance, the TV station said.
"We've arrested a large number of people for selling narcotics
in East County, but this is the first time I can recall a dealer
who was contacting us to set up a transaction," Police
Constable Kenneth Hayden said.

Re: Unreliable subscription
Dear Webby,
Why is my subscription so unreliable?
I usually get your newsletter about twice a week, some others
once a week or once every two weeks, but I get spam every
day of the week.And now and then, I get the same subscription
twice in the same day! What can I do about that?
Kim K.
Dear Kim
That is about normal for Hotmail users.They use a totally
insane quota system. When a certain number of emails have
arrived from any one block of IP numbers, all further ones
are blocked for the rest of the day.
If you go around and shoot all the other subscribers with
ho'mail addresses, then you would get your subscription
every day. However, some of them might not like that and
shoot back. So I don't recommend that method.
Victims of Yahoo have similar problems, except with Yahoo,
there is no discernible method to their madness.
In both cases, I recommend that you get a Gmail address on
the side for important stuff. You can continue using ho'mail
and Yahoo for cyber sex and for getting onto the mailing
lists of spammers, but at least you have one reliable address
for utility bills and for subscriptions.
Gmail addresses are free, and easy to customize. AND, you
can handle your Gmail with any full featured POP email
program.
Have FUN!

Daily tip from Thriftyfun.com
Let Dough Rise in Microwave
I love to bake homemade bread and pizza dough and don't
really care for bread machine results (yeah I know they're
so much easier). When I make breads by hand, I need a
nice warm, clean, out of the way place for the dough to rise.
I have been putting the dough in my microwave (turned off,
of course) and letting it rise there with the best results. It
frees up my counter space and is clean and warm. So
make use of that idle microwave when in need of a place
for dough to rise. I've even got some pizza dough rising
in mine right now for entertaining friends later.

The police recently busted a man selling ' secret formula'
tablets he claimed gave eternal youth. When going through
their files they noticed it was the fifth time he was caught
for commiting this same criminal medical fraud.
He had earlier been arrested in 1794, 1856, 1928 and 1983.

A tourist is visiting New York City when his car breaks
down. He jumps out and starts fiddling under the hood.
About five minutes later, he hears some thumping sounds and
looks around to see someone taking stuff out of his trunk.
He runs around and yells, "Hey, bud, this is my car!"
"Okay," the man says, "You take the front and I'll take the
back."
