During World War II, four paratroopers, one each from England,

when they realized there was only one serviceable parachute.
The French paratrooper downed a glass of cognac, said "Pour la

The American downed a glass of bourbon, said "For freedom!" and
jumped without the parachute.
The Scotsman downed a glass of whiskey, said "For Scotland!"
and threw out the Englishman.

An INTERNATIONAL BONEHEAD AWARD
has been earned by
Meredith Lowell,
35,
Cleveland Heights,
California
California Woman stabbed another in
belief she was wearing fur
2nd Bonehead Award
A woman with a history of attacks on people wearing fur has
been charged with attempted murder for stabbing a woman she
believed was wearing the material at a church outside
Cleveland, police said.
Meredith Lowell, 35, is being held on a $1 million bond after
the attack Wednesday afternoon at a Presbyterian church in
Cleveland Heights.
The victim had brought children she was babysitting to the
church for choir practice, and Lowell stabbed her twice in the
arm and once in the abdomen with a kitchen knife, according to
a Cleveland Heights police report.
A man wrestled Lowell to the floor and held her until officers
arrived, the police report said.
The victim remained hospitalized Thursday, Police Chief Anne
Mecklenburg said. Her condition was unclear. It's also not
clear whether the victim was wearing real fur.
A telephone number to seek comment from Lowell's attorney could
not be found.
Lowell was arrested a year ago on suspicion of attacking
someone she believed was wearing fur at a Whole Foods store in
University Heights.
A police report said Lowell punched and then tried to cut a
woman wearing a jacket with fake fur on its hood with the
serrated blade of a Swiss Army knife. The jacket was gashed, a
police photo shows, but the woman was not cut.
Lowell was indicted in January on one count of felonious
assault in Cuyahoga County. An online court docket shows she
pleaded not guilty by reason of insanity last month. The case
is pending.
And in March 2012, Lowell was indicted in federal court in
Cleveland after authorities said she posted on Facebook that
she wanted to hire a hit man to kill someone wearing fur.
Lowell wrote that she would be willing to pay between $830 and
$850, according to an FBI affidavit.
An undercover FBI agent contacted Lowell, who asked that a
person be killed with a gun or a knife at a Cleveland Heights
library and that she planned to be there when the murder was
carried out, authorities said.
Lowell told the agent she wanted to set up an animal rights
militia and specified that a victim at the library should be at
least 12 years old and at least 4 feet tall, the affidavit
said. She was arrested in February 2012.
Those charges were dropped in January 2013 when it was
determined she could not be rehabilitated to competency,
court records show.
However, I gave her a Bonehead Award for that too.
It seemed obvious that the nut would cause similar problems
again. That look, like Greta or Petunia, showing a boneheaded
belief in her own wacky theories and absolutely refusing to
listen to facts, guarantees more trouble.

Re: Windows upside down
Dear Webby,
My grandson, the smart-ass, truned my screens upside down.
There is no way I can do anything without turning the monitor
or myself upside down.
Help!

Dear Rosa
That is a childish trick that usually girls do to their
brothers.
CTRL SHIFT ALT and the DOWN arrow will trun the screen upright
again. It MAY blacken one or both screens for a few seconds.
Don't panic, just wait. When the screen come alive again, they
will be upright again.
Have FUN!

A flight instructor was sent out to help a trainee who had
radioed that he was about to make a forced landing a few
miles from the base. The instructor spotted the plane
standing in a field small enough to present a real challenge
to his professional reputation.
With determination, full flaps and engine just above the
stall, he maneuvered into the field. Climbing out, he shouted
angrily to the trainee, "Just how did you manage to get into
such a small field?"
"I landed in the big field over there," the trainee pointed,
"but in order to leave room for you, I had the farmer tow me
here."

>From Mike
One Sunday morning when my son, David, was about 5, we were
attending a church in our community. It was common for the
preacher to invite the children to the front of the church
and have a small lesson before beginning the sermon. He would
bring in an item they could find around the house and relate
it to a teaching from the Bible.
This particular morning, the visual aid for his lesson was a
smoke detector. He asked the children if anyone knew what it
meant when an alarm sounded from the smoke detector.
My child immediately raised his hand and said, "It means Mom is
cooking dinner and checking email at the same time."
What's the Heirloom Christmas
Book about?
It is a BIG e-book with all the stories, that your great
grandmother recited or read to your grandmother, when she
was a kid. I want these stories to be preserved.
You may know what it is about, when somebody mentions
"bittersweet love like in 'The Gift Of The Magi',"
but with today's education, your kids or even their teachers,
probably don't know. So I collected these classics and put
them all together into one e-book.
This book of Christmas Stories is a cultural treasure, that
should
be passed on to our descendants. Since it is in e-book format,
you can put it onto a CD for each kid, and fill the rest of the
CD with family pictures and other keepsakes,
making it a true heirloom.
I have produced a smaller version last year. This final
edition has more stories and illustrations, but I kept the
price down to the same $10.
The Heirloom Christmas Book also makes a nice
Christmas gift!

Last October my wife bought a magnolia tree from the local
nursery, but after only a few weeks the leaves shriveled.
It appeared to be on its last legs. My wife took some leaf
samples and marched into the nursery to demand an explanation.
"I know exactly what's wrong with your magnolia," said the
manager.
"Good," said my wife. "What's it suffering from?"
"Autumn," he replied.

"However, if you're over 65," he said, "the price will be

rang out:
"Do you really think I'd give you that information for a
lousy fifty cents?"
