She swam out ten miles from the island, and she was too tired to go on, so she drowned. The redhead said to herself, "I wonder if she made it. I guess it's better to try to get to the mainland than stay here and starve." So she attempts to swim out. The redhead had a lot more endurance than the brunette, as she swam out 10 miles before she even got tired. After 15 miles, she was too tired to go on, so she drowned. So the blonde thought to herself, "I wonder if they made it! I think I'd better try to make it, too." So she swam out 5 miles, ten miles, fifteen miles, and finally nineteen miles from the island.

The oil creates a shield on the leaves, so they can still filter the air, but the dust won't settle on them! * Clean your oven with a citrus steam Fill an oven-safe tray with water and the juice of one lemon, along with both halves of the lemon.

Nine brains inexplicably appeared earlier this week along a street in a village in New York. How the brains got there and where they came from remains a mystery. Residents discovered the brains on a Street in Gouverneur and called the police. Gouverneur police collected one of the brains and brought it to a local veterinarian for an examination. The veterinarian determined the brain had been professionally removed -- likely from a dog -- and preserved in formaldehyde. The veterinarian said that the brain was consistent with a beagle-sized brain and was in very good condition with no damage. But a chemistry professor at Clarkson University argued the specimen was possibly from a sheep, not a dog. No brain labeled Hans Delbruck was found, but there was an Abbey...someone. Regardless, police told local news outlets there was little to fear. The nine brains are believed to have been part of a collection for educational or research purposes and no criminal activity, other than littering, is suspected. *-- Seattle car burglar overlooks lottery ticket worth $1 million --* SEATTLE (UPI) - A Seattle couple said a burglar stole a pair of sunglasses from their car, but ignored something far more valuable -- a $1 million winning Powerball ticket. The couple, who requested anonymity, said they forgot to check the numbers on their Powerball ticket after it failed to win the $350 million jackpot in February's drawing. "We didn't even think about a second chance prize," the couple told Washington's Lottery officials. They said the ticket sat in their car for about three months. "Someone broke into our car a few weeks ago and stole a pair of sunglasses," the couple said. "The stolen sunglasses were actually sitting atop the winning ticket. What a close call!" The couple checked the numbers on the ticket May 14 and discovered they had won a $1 million second chance prize. "Well, we already popped a bottle of champagne! We're also planning a trip to Paris and Iceland for this year. Other than that, I think we'll just take care of our house," the couple said. The Seattle Imam's store that sold the ticket will receive a $10,000 selling bonus, the lottery said. The burglar, meanwhile, will have to make do with a pair of used sunglasses. *-- Indian police detain pigeon as 'suspected spy' from Pakistan --* BAMIYAL, India (UPI) - Indian police said they have detained a pigeon suspected of being a Pakistani spy after it was found to have a message stamped on its body. Punjab police said a 14-year-old boy in Manwal, a village close to the Pakistani border, brought the pigeon to a police station when he noticed it bore a stamped message on its wing feathers written in Urdu, the official language of Pakistan, and a Pakistani phone number. The pigeon's feathers also reportedly bore the seal of a Pakistani district in Pakistan's Punjab province. Officers at the Bamiyal police post dubbed the bird a "suspected spy" in a diary report. Police Superintendent Rakesh Kaushal said police conducted an X-ray of the white pigeon. "Nothing adverse has been found, but we have kept the bird in our custody," Kaushal told The Times of India. "This is a rare instance of a bird from Pakistan being spotted here. We have caught a few spies here. The area is sensitive, given its proximity to Jammu, where infiltration is quite common." *-- Illinois couple welcome their 100th grandchild --* QUINCY, Ill.

The couple said they have 12 children, 53 grandchildren, 46 great-grandchildren and one great-great-grandson. "We could start our own town," Leo Zanger joked to the Quincy Herald-Whig. The couple said their large family is close-knit and most of them live in the Quincy area. They said family gatherings require a rented church hall and either 50 pounds of ham or 10 whole turkeys. "We enjoy all of the family get-togethers," Leo Zanger said. The Zangers said they enjoy watching their family grow.

Gao Bingguo, of Tai'an City, in the eastern province of Shandong, began the challenge early Monday, Sky News reported. The 55-year-old veteran beekeeper has cultivated bees for more than 30 years, and was stung multiple times before breaking the world record. Around 1.1 million bees at one point weighed down on Gao, the International Business Times reported. Weighing at 240 pounds, the bees shattered a previous record of 184 pounds - also set by a Chinese beekeeper in China's inland Shaanxi province. Gao's fellow beekeepers were dressed in military camouflage pantsuits as they prepared their colleague for the battle of his lifetime. Working together, they poured the pollinating insects onto his geared body. Queen bees came first, in order to attract more of the insects to fly and land on Gao's protected head, arms and legs. Video footage showed Gao smoking a cigarette in a nonchalant manner, as thousands of bees swarmed over him then crawled over his seated body. Luo Xing, a judge at the event said, "After we checked and searched [the] database, and witnessed it at scene, we announce, Mr. Gao Bingguo successfully breaks the record." ========================================================= >-->From Our Friend LouiseAu :) ,=""=, c , _,{ /\ @ ) __ / ^~~^\ <=.,__/ '}= (_/ ,, ,,) \_ _>_/~ ~\_(/-\)'-,_,_,_,-'(_)-(_) -Naughty >Tips THE CRYING BABY SCAM: Killers and Rapists often have checked and know when you are alone, and use this trick to lure you out onto your porch, or anywhere around your house, with sounds of a crying baby.

This will brighten up the aluminum and make your house smell yummy. - - - - - - - To keep cookies fresh, savvy grannies like to put some crumpled tissue paper in the bottom of the cookie jar. - - - - - - - If salt is clumping up, put a few grains of rice in with it -- to absorb excess moisture. - - - - - - - To clean fruit stains off of your fingers, rub them with a freshly peeled potato. White vinegar can also do the trick. - - - - - - - Keep iceberg lettuce fresh in the refrigerator by wrapping it in a clean, dry paper towel, storing lettuce and paper towel in a sealed baggie in it. --- ...Wrap head of lettuce in foil straight from store - will last much longer. ----------- If a loaf of bread is starting to go stale, just put a piece of fresh celery in the bag and close it back up. For some reason, this restores a fresh taste and texture to the bread. - - - - - - - When making a soup, sauce or casserole that ends up too fatty or greasy, drop in an ice cube. The ice will attract the fat, which you can then scoop out. - - - - - - - To reuse cooking oil without tasting whatever was cooked in the oil previously, cook a 1/4" piece of ginger in oil. It will remove any remaining flavors and odors. (Helpful if you are out of cooking oil and cash at the same time!) - - - - - - - If milk always goes bad before you can finish it, try adding a pinch of salt to the carton when you first open it. It will stay fresh days longer. --- ...Great Tips!

A loud hollow sound generally means it is ripe - people say yellow on the bottom means extra sweet and ripe too. Muskmelon - use your thumb and press down at the top stem area. If you can press it in, it is ripe. If not, it isn't ready yet. Corn on the cob - go with the fattest ones that don't have a lot of brown kernels at the top. The fatter the better. Tomatoes - smell them. If they don't smell like fresh tomatoes, they probably won't taste like them either. Head Lettuce - pick the greenest head - preferably with no brown. when cleaning - dispose of the very top leaf or leaves covering its outer head - it has all the pesticides. ========================================================= >-->From LaffADay: .----. ===(_)== THIS WONT HURT A BIT... // 6 6 \\ / ( 7 ) \ '--' / \_ ._/ __) (__ /"`/`\`V/`\`\ / \ `Y _/_ \ / [DR]\_ |/ / /\ | ( \/ / / / \ \ \ / \ `-/` _.` jgs `=. `=./ `"` >What the Doctor says and what he really means Doctor: "This should be taken care of right away."

Thanks Fran! When I was reselling on eBay, I used the thrift stores to find things people wanted. I once found a set of glasses a woman had been looking for for over 30 years. She had MS and was searching to complete a family set for her daughter before she died. She wrote me thanks and that she had to sit on the floor to unwrap my box to her but was filled with tears of joy when she saw that indeed these were the glasses she had been looking for for so many years! And to think this blessing came from a Good Will store! Made my day and hers. :) ========================================================= >-->Story Time From Our Friend Cheri :) .-.____________________.-. ___ _.' .-----. _____________| /_._/ ( | /_____________| / ` _ ____/ _____ _ _ __ |_ .\( \\ |_ _|| |_| || _| .' `-._/__`_// | | | _ || _| __ .' |""""' |_| |_| |_||__| ( ) / / _ _ _ _ _____ ___ _ _ ___ _ _ ___ ___ _ ___ |/___ / | | | | | \| |_ _| | | | | _| |_| | | | | | _| | _| | ' | |_| | | | | | I | |_| | |_| _ | ' | <| |_| _| |_ | | \|_____|_|\_| |_| |___|_____|___|_| |_|_|_|___|___|___| |___| `-._____.-' Jay C >WARNING FOR ALL MALES FROM ME - buying a security device for a loved one. Last weekend I saw something at The Gun Show that sparked my interest. I was looking for a little something different for my wife Dana. What I came across was a 100,000-volt, pocket/purse-sized Tazer. The effects of the Taser were supposed to be short lived, with no long term adverse effect on your assailant, allowing her adequate time to retreat to safety... WAY TOO COOL! Long story short, I bought the device and brought it home.. I loaded two AAA batteries in the darn thing and pushed the button. Nothing! I was disappointed - I learned, however, that if I pushed the button and pressed it against a metal surface at the same time, I'd get the blue arc of electricity darting back and forth between the prongs. AWESOME!!! Unfortunately, I have yet to explain to Dana what that burn spot is on the face of her microwave. _ \`*-. ) _`-. . : `. . : _ ' \ ; *` _. `*-._ `-.-' `-. ; ` `. :. . \ . \ . : .-' . ' `+.; ; ' : : ' | ; ;-. ; ' : :`-: _.`* ; [bug] .*' / .*' ; .*`- +' `*' `*-* `*-* `*-*' Okay, so I was home alone with this new toy, thinking to myself that it couldn't be all that bad with only two AAA batteries, right? There I sat in my recliner, my cat Leo looking on intently (trusting little soul) while I was reading the directions and thinking that I really needed to try this thing out on a flesh & blood moving target. I must admit I thought about zapping Leo (for a fraction of a second) and then thought better of it. He is such a sweet cat. But, if I was going to give this thing to my wife to protect herself against a mugger, I did want some assurance that it would work as advertised. Am I wrong? So, there I sat in a pair of shorts and a singlet with my reading glasses perched delicately on the bridge of my nose, directions in one hand, and Taser in another. The directions said that: A one-second burst would shock and disorient your assailant; A two-second burst was supposed to cause muscle spasms and a major loss of bodily control; and A three-second burst would purportedly make your assailant flop on the ground like a fish out of water. Any burst longer than three seconds would be wasting the batteries. All the while I'm looking at this little device measuring about 5" long, less than 3/4 inch in circumference (loaded with two itsy, bitsy AAA batteries); pretty cute really, and thinking to myself, 'no possible way!' What happened next is almost beyond description, but I'll do my best. I'm sitting there alone, the cat looking on with his head cocked to one side so as to say, 'Don't do it stupid,' reasoning that a one second burst from such a tiny lil ole thing couldn't hurt all that bad - I decided to give myself a one second burst just for heck of it. _ ( \ \ \ / / |\\ / / .-`````-. / ^`-. \ \ / \_/ {|} `o \ \ / .---. \\ _ ,--' \ \/ / \, \( `^^^ \ \/\ (\ ) \ ) \ ) \ \ jgs ) /__ \__ ) (\ \___ (___)))__))(__))(__))) I touched the prongs to my naked thigh, pushed the button, and... HOLY MOTHER OF GOD. WEAPONS OF MASS DESTRUCTION. WHAT THE... !!! I AM CERTAIN I JUST MET JESUS!!! I'm pretty sure Hulk Hogan ran in through the side door, picked me up in the recliner, then body slammed us both on the carpet, over and over and over again. I vaguely recall waking up on my side in the fetal position, with tears in my eyes, body soaking wet, both nipples on fire, balls nowhere to be found, with my left arm tucked under my body in the oddest position, and tingling in my legs! The cat was making meowing sounds I had never heard before, clinging to a picture frame hanging above the fireplace, obviously in an attempt to avoid getting slammed by my body flopping all over the living room. Note: If you ever feel compelled to 'mug' yourself with a Taser, one note of caution: There is NO such thing as a one second burst when you zap yourself! You will not let go of that thing until it is dislodged from your hand by a violent thrashing about on the floor! A three second burst would be considered conservative! A minute or so later (I can't be sure, as time was a relative thing at that point), I collected my wits (what little I had left), sat up and surveyed the landscape. · My bent reading glasses were on the top of the TV. · The recliner was upside down and about 8 feet or so from where it originally was. · My triceps, right thigh and both nipples were still twitching. · My face felt like it had been shot up with Novocain, and my bottom lip weighed 88 lbs. · I had no control over the drooling. · Apparently I had crapped in my shorts, but was too numb to know for sure, and my sense of smell was gone. · I saw a faint smoke cloud above my head, which I believe came from my hair. . I'm still looking for my balls and I'm offering a significant reward for their safe return! _,,,_ .' `'. / ____ \ | .'_ _\/ / ) a a| / ( > | ( ) ._ / ) _/-.__.'`\ ( .-'`-. \__ ) `/ `-./ `. | \ \ \ jgs | \ \ \ \ |\ `. / / \ PS: My wife can't stop laughing about my experience, loved the gift and now regularly threatens me with it! --- ...LMAO Too Rich!
