Good Morning, !
Today is Monday, April 15.
Do you remember my April Fools spoof about space sinach
because I could not find spinach in any stor?
It seems somebody at Walmart heard about that, and they
now have spinach. The can are dented and apparently from
a discount supplier specializing on dents and transport
damage. I don't care, as long as the cans are not bloated
or leaking. The contents were great, and tightly packed,
not just mostly water. If you like spinach, go have a look!
If you are on FaceBook, send me a Friend Request.
I will confirm it, as soon as I see it.
Have FUN!

The trouble with normal is it always gets worse.

TEACHER: Winnie, name one important thing we have today
that we didn't have ten years ago.
WINNIE: Me!
Thanks to Bob for this:
Long, unproductive meetings are often the bane of corporate
life. My very funny boss at the software company where I
work has come up with what just might be the perfect way to
cut business conferences short before they start rambling
out of control.
There comes a time when he announces, "All those opposed
to my plan say, 'I resign.'"
End of meeting.

Rickesha Burns, 21, Phoenix, AZ
Jailed for Shoving Sex Toy So Far Into Toddler Son's
Anus, Surgery Was Required To Have It Removed
Reported by The Weekly Vice
Rickesha Burns, a 21-year-old Phoenix woman, was jailed
late last month after she allegedly shoved a vibrator so
far up her 2-year-old son's anus, surgery was required to
get it back out.
According to Phoenix Police, officers were dispatched to Burns'
residence after receiving a report of 'unknown trouble' at
her home.
When officers arrived on the scene, they found Burns' son
"crying hysterically" and bleeding from his anus. The child
was immediately rushed to Phoenix Children's Hospital for
examination.
At the hospital, doctors advised detectives that a foreign
object resembling a vibrator or similar sex toy was lodged
deep inside the boy's rectum. Doctors also alerted investigators
to sharp object injuries around the boy's anus - and advised
that it appeared someone had used a hanger to get the object
out of the boy's rectum.
When detectives interviewed Burns, she told them that she had
been at a park with her son earlier in the day when an unknown
12-year-old boy walked up to her son and made him cry. She said
she had been checking her phone for text messages "for about ten
seconds" when "something happened" and her son began to cry.
Burns went on to say that she "worked hard to get her son back
and would not do anything like this to hurt her son," according
to the arrest affidavit. Burns may have been referring to a
previous case in 2011 in which she was investigated for
child abuse.
Officers determined that no evidence could be found to indicate
that Burns had been to a park that day or that any child could
have inserted a vibrator into her son's rectum in the span of
10 seconds as Burns claimed.
She was booked into jail and charged with sexual conduct with
a minor and child abuse.
The child has been scheduled to have the object removed from
his anus, however no reports indicate how the surgery went.

RE: How important is a mugshot on FaceBook?
Dear Webby,
I see that most people have a mug shot or cut of a family
picture, some have a total make-over glamor shot, but some
have a picture of a pet or flowers.
How important is it to have a personal picture at the
mug shot location?
Audrey
Dear Audrey
Cougars, who are on the prowl, use total make-over glamor
shots or old pictures,like their graduation picture.
Those, of course, are cruising for heartbreak, when somebody
finds out they are not who they pretend to be.
You yourself will feel more comfortable too with a simple
every day picture, than having to try to live up to an
impossible dream.
If you don't have a camera, get a friend to take a picture.
No fancy glamor shots, just an every day picture, that you
have no problem living up to.
Some people hide behind pictures of pets or flowers scanned
from seed catalogs. Whatever their reason is for hiding, they
obviously don't want to increase their circle of friends or
reconnect with old friends.
Take your pick, but don't go to a lot of effort and hassle
to get a fancy and pretentious picture.
Remember, your neighbors and relatives know you without the
wig and the big DD interview foamies, and would tease you
to no end, if your FaceBook picture is too different from
reality.
Have FUN!

Daily tip from Thriftyfun.com
Milk Jug Electric Cord Reel
I use the electric leaf blower frequently to blow off the
porch and carport. I've just been looping the cord and
laying it across the blower for storage and having to untangle
it every time I use it.
I told my husband that we needed to purchase a reel to keep
the cord on. A reel makes it easier to store the cord and
keeps it from getting tangled up. The idea popped into my
head to use a milk jug so I gave it a try and it works.
I cut out a section opposite the handle to make some sides
to hold the cord. Holding the jug by the handle, I wrapped
the cord around the jug. This works, however, I think a heavier
jug will work even better. I may not have to spend money on a
reel after all.

Thanks to Irene for this one:
While watching a movie recently, I couldn't hear the dialogue
over the chatter of the two women sitting in front of me.
Unable to bear it any longer, I tapped one of them on the
shoulder. "Excuse me," I said, "I can't hear."
"I should hope not," she replied sharply. "This is a private
conversation."
Luckily violence was averted by the young woman sitting next
to me. She said, just as loudly: "I can hear it loud and
clear, and I am writing it down word for word for my
gossip column in the paper."
They got up and left in a huff.
I gave my good gold colored pen to the young woman,
AND my chocolate bar.

In my sociology class, we were instructed to write down
answers to some questions the teacher was asking.
"Next question," announced the instructor. "How would you
like to be seen by the opposite sex?"
I was thinking about my answer when the young woman next
to me turned and asked, "How do you spell 'intellekshual?'"
