The following was overheard at a recent high society party...

"My ancestry goes all the way back to Alexander the Great,"
said one lady. She then turned to a second woman and asked,
"How far does your family go back?"

"I don't know," was the reply. "All of our records were lost
in the flood."

A Statistician, a Biologist and a Physicist are sitting in
a street cafe watching people going in and coming out of the
house on the other side of the street. First they see two
people going into the house. Time passes. After a while they
notice three persons coming out of the house.

The Physicist says: "The measurement wasn't accurate." The
Biologist concludes: "They have reproduced."
The Statistician says: "Now if another person enters the house,
it'll be empty again."

An INTERNATIONAL BONEHEAD AWARD 
has been earned by


Jy Kennedy, 24,
Weoley Castle, 
Birmingham
England


Burglar drank 24 bottles of beer and 
Jägermeister and tried to escape on bike

A burglar downed 24 bottles of beer and a bottle of
Jägermeister before he tried to escape from police on a
bicycle. Jy Kennedy, who had also taken cocaine, was chased by
police for a mile as he made a number of U-turns to shake them
off. The 24-year-old eventually crashed into a police car and
fell off, ending the chase on August 5 in Weoley Castle,
Birmingham.

Kennedy, of Pershore Road, Selly Oak, who had previously
admitted burglary and theft, and had asked for three other
burglaries to be taken into consideration, was jailed for two
years. The chase began after two officers heard a burglar alarm
go off in Bournville Lane and spotted Kennedy cycling along
clutching a flat screen TV. Mark Phillips, prosecuting at
Birmingham Crown Court, said: It was quite clear the defendant
was drunk. He tried to run but did not get very far and was
arrested. When police searched his home they found a number of
items he had taken from the same address earlier laid out on
his bed including a jewellery box, a camcorder and a watch.
When quizzed, Kennedy said he had been recently released from
prison and was bored.

Mr Phillips said: ‘He took cocaine at about 6am and bought and
drank 24 bottles of Budweiser followed by a bottle of
Jagermeister. ‘It was in that state he had gone out to burgle.’
Judge Roderick Henderson said it was clear Kennedy had visited
the address more than once and that he had taken some items of
sentimental value which had never been recovered. Delroy Henry,
defending, said Kennedy had shown a lack of maturity and still
had a lot of growing up to do. He was soon to be a father and
would miss his first born’s birth if sent to jail.

Re: Infected Mac

Hello Webby, I have had a Mac lap top for less than 2 years. A
while back I allowed who I thought was An Amazon rep into the
computer. When I realized the mistake the link was severed.
Soooo I had Best Buy take a look because I wasn’t sure if it
had been compromised.  They added Webroot. Now it buffers and
is slow to take commands. Is that protection really neccesary
since I thought Mac was set up to be protected against attack.
Can I just stop that program? Some help would be a appreciated.
Thanks Barbara

Dear Barbara
I have not touched a Mac since the days, when you were still
jail bait. 
However, I know that the concept that Macs are protected is
just BS and advertising. As you found out, they are not
protected.

On the Humor Letter, you see the links for 
Malwarebytes.
Get that to clean up your Mac and to protect it.
Then you can UNinstall that webroot.
Have FUN
DearWebby

Daily tip from Thriftyfun.com
Keep Socks Together
Attach pairs of socks with a safety pin before putting them
in the washer. Even better, pin them together when you take
them off and toss them in the dirty clothes hamper. The best
safety pins are diaper safety pins which are less likely to
damage other clothing.

 Rosh Hashanah is a time for introspection, and purifying one's
soul, In conjunction with this is the custom of Tashlich, where
people take crumbs and throw them into a river or other body of
water to symbolize throwing away one's sins and starting the
new year fresh.

However, times have changed...

Taking a few crumbs to Tashlich from whatever old bread is in
the house lacks subtlety, nuance and religious sensitivity.
Instead, consider these options this year for Rosh Hashanah:

For ordinary sins, use White Bread
For exotic sins, French Bread
For particularly dark sins, Pumpernickel
For complex sins, Multi-grain
For twisted sins, Pretzels
For tasteless sins, Rice Cakes
For sins of indecision, Waffles
For sins committed in haste, Matzah
For sins of chutzpah, Bread that's fresh
For substance abuse, Poppy Seed
For committing arson, Toast
For committing auto theft, Caraway
For being ill tempered, Sourdough
For silliness, Nut Bread
For jingoism,Yankee Doodles
For excessive use of irony, Rye Bread
For telling bad jokes, Corn Bread
For hardening our hearts, Jelly doughnuts
For war-mongering, Kaiser Rolls
For immodest dressing, Tarts
For causing injury or damage to others, Tortes
For promiscuity, Hot Buns
For being holier than thou, Bagels
For unfairly upbraiding another, Challah
For trashing the environment, Dumplings
For sins of laziness, Any Very Long Loaf
For lying, Baked Goods with Nutrasweet and Olestra
For the sins of the righteous, Angel Food Cake
For selling your soul, Devils Food Cake
For lust in your heart, Wonder Bread
For inhaling, Stoned Wheat

For your convenience, your local delicatessen has pre-mixed
bread crumbs for sale.

A hillbilly dragged his protesting son to a new school which
had just opened in a nearby village . When they arrived, he
took his son to see the teacher. "Howdy," said the
hillbilly. "This here's my son, Arthur. Now what kind of
learnin' are you teachin'?"

"Oh, all the usual subjects," said the teacher, nodding at
the boy. "Reading, writing, arithmetic."

"What's this ?" interrupted the father. "Arith....arith...
what did you say?"

"'Arithmetic, Sir," said the teacher, "instruction in
geometry, algebra and trigonometry."

"Trigonometry!" cried the delighted hillbilly. "That's what my
boy needs.
He's the worst darn shot in the family."
