Speak the truth, but leave immediately after.
--- Slovenian Proverb
A little girl asked her mother for a dollar to give
to an old lady in the park. Her mother was
touched by the child's kindness and gave her
the required sum.
"There you are, my dear," said the mother.
"But, tell me, isn't the lady able to work any more?"
"Oh yes," came the reply. "She sells candy."
Maggie has a particularly outrageous rapport with her son.
He argues and fights with her all the time.
Finally having had enough, she takes her son to a psychologist.
After two sessions, the doctor speaks with the mother.
"Madam, your son suffers from an Oedipus Complex."
"Oedipus, Schmoedipus," replies Maggie, "It's all the same
to me. The important thing is that he loves his mother!"

An INTERNATIONAL BONEHEAD AWARD goes to
Daniela Poggiali,42, Lugo, Italy
Italian nurse arrested for
killing 38 patients
A nurse in Italy is accused of killing 38 patients because
she thought they were “annoying.”
Daniela Poggiali was arrested Friday on murder charges,
Italian newspaper Corriere di Bologna reports. The
42-year-old nurse caught the attention of authorities after
the April death of 78-year-old Rosa Calderoni, according
to the Independent’s translation of Italian
Calderoni was admitted to a hospital in the town of Lugo
with a diabetes-related ailment, and died from what officials
believe was a fatal injection of potassium chloride.
Prosecutors say that their investigation is more difficult
because potassium chloride fades from the bloodstream
within a couple days, making it hard to detect.
Calderoni’s death occurred while Poggiali was on duty, and
the resulting investigation found that 37 other patients
also died mysteriously on her watch. Authorities now suspect
that Poggiali may have killed them all because she thought
that they or their families were irritating.
Police say the nurse’s cell phone included a photo of her
making the thumbs-up sign next to a patient’s corpse,
according to the New York Post. She may face additional
charges for disrespecting the dead.

Any suggestions?

Dear Attila
The links are a disguise to get past many viruses and trojans
that block you from getting name brand protection,
and they are:
http://webby.com/mac
that goes to
http://www.mcafeestore.com/store/mcafee ... ent/en_US/
pbPage.aff_us_total_protection?affiliateprogramtype=833&utm_source=
ond&utm_medium=affiliate&ClickID=cwi7qwafaplaanl4zezlikxqvfnw77vvezki
&resid=VDyGQwrR-gIAABaN9ecAAAAU&rests=1413442289328
The Buy Now in there goes to the cart with the $44.99 Total Protection
https://www.mcafeestore.com/store?Action=DisplayPage&Locale=en_US
&SiteID=mcafeeus&id=QuickBuyCartPage
If none of that works, then your infection blocks anything
McAfee related.
That is actually quite common. The first thing most serious
Trojans and viruses do is block all the big name brand
anti-virus programs.
Try MalwareBytes at http://webby.com/malwarebytes. Their
"Cameleon" usually gets through anyway, and quite often
manages to clean up.
After that you should be able to download McAfee safely.
Good Luck!

Daily tip from Thriftyfun.com
Reuse Disposable Vacuum Bags
I have an expensive vacuum cleaner that takes expensive
bags. To save on buying new bags for my vacuum, I simply
cut the bottom off the bag, empty it, and duct tape the
bottom shut. Voila! I have a recycled vacuum cleaner bag.

Two buddies, Tony and Billy, are getting very
drunk at a bar when suddenly Billy throws up all over himself. "Oh, no.
Now Jane will kill me!"
Tony says, "Don't worry, pal. Just tuck a twenty
in your breast pocket, tell Jane that someone
threw up on you and gave you twenty dollars for the dry cleaning bill."
So they stay for another couple of hours and get even drunker.
Eventually, Billy rolls into home and his Jane starts to give him a bad time.
"You reek of alcohol and you've puked all over
yourself! My God, you're disgusting!"
Speaking very carefully so as not to slur, he says:
"Nowainaminit,I can e'splain everything!
Itsh not what you think. I only had a couple drinks. But this other guy
got sick on me... he'd had one too many and he just couldn't hold his
liquor. He said he was very sorry an' gave me $20 bucks for the
cleaning bill!"
Jane looks in the breast pocket and says:
"But this is forty bucks."
"Oh, yeah... I almos' forgot" says Billy,
"he crapped in my pants, too....!!"
He never saw the frying pan, but vaguely remembers hearing
a gong.
Thanks to Dianne for this story:
As the lone female in our household, I find that certain
male habits have really begun to get on my nerves.
One day, I emerged from my teenage son's bathroom
completely exasperated when I bumped into my husband.
"What is it with guys that they won't replace the toiler paper!"
I raged.
"I know." he said, nodding in agreement. "I noticed that
too when I was just in there."
