A guy walks into a bar and approaches the barman, "Can I have
a pint of Less, please?"
"I'm sorry sir," the barman replies, looking slightly puzzled,
"I've not come across that one before. Is it a spirit?"
"I've no idea," replies the guy, "The thing is, I went to see
my doctor last week and he told me that I should drink less."

An INTERNATIONAL BONEHEAD AWARD goes to
SanJuanita Carbajal, 58, now in Maricopa County Jail
Grandmother Charged With Giving
9-Year-Old Grandchild Drugs,
In An Attempt To Have Girl's Father
Charged With Drug Possession
Reported by The Weekly Vice
SanJuanita Carbajal, a 58-year-old Texas woman, was jailed
Wednesday after she allegedly gave her 9-year-old granddaughter
several packets of cocaine in an attempt to frame the child's
father for drug possession.
According to Gilbert Police, officers were dispatched to
Pioneer Elementary School Wednesday after school
administrators discovered that the little girl was in
possession of several small packets that they believed
to be cocaine.
Arriving officers performed a field test on the substance
and confirmed that it was cocaine.
When officers interviewed the child, she reportedly told
them that she found the drug packets in her father's truck.
After further questioning, the little girl admitted that
Carbajal had given her the drugs with instructions to hide
them inside her father's truck.
When officers asked the girl who she would rather live with,
the girl emphatically replied "Grandma Janey!"
The girl's father told investigators that the girl had been
at the center of a long, drawn-out custody fight between
himself, the girl's mother and Carbajal. The situation
apparently intensified after the father was awarded
residential custody.
At some point during the custody dispute, Carbajal attempted
to gain custody of the child, but was unsuccessful.
The girl's mother reportedly told investigators that her
mother's sisters are drug dealers, and she believes that
her mother attempted to set her and the child's father up
using drugs acquired from her sisters. The girl's mother
is not a suspect in the case.
The girl's father told investigators that he doesn't use
narcotics and asked officers to search his truck. Officers
took him up on his offer Monday and found no trace of cocaine
or other narcotics inside his vehicle. On Tuesday, however,
the father called police and reported that a bag of cocaine
mysteriously appeared inside his truck after dropping his
daughter off at school.
After multiple interviews with all parties involved,
investigators determined that Carbajal gave her granddaughter
the drugs, hoping a drug conviction would give her the edge
she needed to launch a new custody fight.
Carbajal, who was visiting Arizona from Texas, was booked
into the Maricopa County Jail and charged with child abuse.

Re: Mystery typing
Dear Webby,
When I type an email, or whatever, my cursor jumps around
and I have trouble finding it. Very disturbing to say the
least. Any suggestions on how to solve this problem?
Thanks, Webby, you are always so helpful, and I LOVE your newsletter.

Dear MaryLou
The problem is the silly touch pad right where your thumb is.
Take a piece of stiff cardboard and cut it to fit over the
thumb pad. You can even use a big piece and cover the entire
area between the keyboard and the lower edge. You can use
double-sided tape or removable post-it-note type glue
(in glue stick form) to attach it.
Hotmelt glue works well too.
The alternative is to cuss and swear every time your thumb
touches or almost touches the silly thumb pad.
You probably have a mouse. If you don't, get one before you
cover the thumb pad! Mice are from $4.95 to $129
Personally I prefer mice with additional side buttons for
copy and paste, but that is a preference, not a necessity.
There is a software method to disable the thumb pad, but then
you are held hostage. In case your mouse dies, or had been
forgotten at home, you won't be able to re-enable the touch
pad. Therefore it is safer to just cover the silly touch
pad with cardboard. If necessary, you can always remove the
cardboard.
Have FUN!

Daily tip from Thriftyfun.com
Making Cut Flowers Last Longer
To make cut flowers last for weeks instead of days, use
7-Up or Sprite instead of water. Cut the ends every other
day or so and freshen the liquid. Roses last for weeks!

An elderly man in Phoenix calls his son Bob in New York and
says, "I hate to ruin your day, but your mother and I are
divorcing. Forty-five years of misery is enough! I'm sick of
her, and I'm sick of talking about this, so call your sister
in Boston and tell her," and then hangs up.
The son frantically calls his sister, who goes nuts upon
hearing the news.
She calls her father and yells, "You are not getting a
divorce! Bob and I will be there tomorrow. Until then,
don't do a single thing, do you hear me?"
The father hangs up the phone, turns to his wife, and says,
"It worked! The kids are coming for a visit, and they're
paying their own way!"
