I have tea and coffee and some soft drinks....What would you like?

Just When You Thought You
d Heard of Everything London Times (AP) 2-11-09 -- Though India is recognized as a world leader in promoting the health benefits of urine, its dominance will be assured by the end of the year when a cow-urine-based soft drink comes to market. Om Prakash, chief of the Cow Protection Department of the RSS organization (India's largest Hindu nationalist group), trying to reassure a Times of London reporter in February, promised, "It won't smell like urine and will be tasty, too," noting that medicinal herbs would be added and toxins removed. In addition to improved health, he said, India needs a domestic (and especially Hindu) beverage to compete with the foreign influence of Coca-Cola and Pepsi.

Loud Squawking Crow Forces FAA To Ground All Flights Indefinitely

WASHINGTON—Thousands were left stranded at airports nationwide Tuesday, when the Federal Aviation Administration grounded all commercial flights due to the harsh, discordant squawks emitted by a nearby crow. 'We apologize to all passengers affected by the cancellations, but he sounds really close,' acting FAA administrator Robert Sturgell said at a press conference, adding that the nation's airport security officials have determined that the crow is in either a tree somewhere close by or possibly on a roof. 'Flights across the Eastern Seaboard will resume just as soon as we can shoo it away.' In the wake of these recent air traffic delays, President Obama has earmarked $3 billion from the bailout budget to finance the construction of a national scarecrow.

NAKED MAN!!!



Police Taser Naked Man Outside Bay City Church
Posted: 2/20/2009

Going to church brought no peace to a man Tasered by police as he stood in the nude in 27-degree weather.

A funeral Mass was being held inside St. Mary of the Assumption Catholic Church when police received 911 calls about a naked man Friday morning. Sgt. Gordon Cameron says the man told officers he was having problems with his parents and wanted to go to church.

Cameron tells The Bay City Times that the man cursed and verbally abused police before Officer Troy Sierras immobilized him with a Taser, an electronic device that fires barbs causing temporary paralysis.

The man was draped in a blanket and taken to Bay Regional Medical Center for treatment.

Cameron says the man, whose name was withheld, likely wouldn't be charged with any crime.

From the Seattle Times online:

 

Inmate amputates his own penis in Monroe

A convicted murderer at the Washington state prison complex in Monroe was hospitalized after his second attempt to cut off his penis.

 

By The Associated Press

 

MONROE — A convicted murderer at the Washington state prison complex in Monroe was hospitalized after his second attempt to cut off his penis.

 

A spokeswoman for the Monroe Correctional Complex, Cathy Kopoian, says the 49-year-old inmate has a history of mental illness and already had amputated much of his genitalia several years ago.

 

Corrections Department spokesman Chad Lewis identified the inmate as John Forrester.

Forrester apparently used a razor blade to cut off what remained on Thursday. Kopoian tells The Herald in Everett that he was taken to Harborview Medical Center in Seattle with serious cuts to the groin. His condition was not immediately available Thursday night.

 

Kopoian says prisoners are permitted basic necessities — including razors — under state law.

 

Kopoian says Forrester was convicted on July 1, 1977, for aggravated first-degree murder and was sentenced to life without parole.

Seattle Times staff reporter Charles E. Brown contributed

FDA Prepares Nation For Switch To Digital Food Format

WASHINGTON—Urging the estimated 60 million Americans who have not yet made the transition to the more advanced form of sustenance to do so as soon as possible, acting FDA commissioner Frank Torti announced Wednesday that the nationwide conversion to Digital Food (DF) will take place on Apr.17, 2009. 'The only thing consumers who currently rely on analog foods will need is a digital converter box, which you can purchase at any grocery store,' Torti said at a press conference, adding that every American household is eligible for a $40 coupon to digitize its current pantry. 'DF offers higher texture quality and better taste, as well as multiple spice choices and interactive capabilities. I must stress, however, that after the deadline you will no longer be able to eat your current food.' On the heels of the announcement, President Obama has begun pressuring the Senate to pass legislation that would require all food to be completely wireless by 2015.

DON'T DO IT YOUR A YOUNG MAN!

2/16 - Topless Bar Visit Costs Part-Time Kalkaska County Deputy His Badge

A Kalkaska County sheriff's deputy has been stripped of his badge after
going to a topless bar.  His job came into question when the sheriff
learned he was in uniform, and on duty.  Rick Robbins is a part-time
snowmobile deputy and is defending his January 30th stop at the Crossroads
Saloon in Rapid City.  He considers stopping at bars popular among
snowmobilers part of his law enforcement duties.  Robbins says he spoke
with the manager but not the dancers, and didn't drink any alcohol during
his 30-minute visit.  But Sheriff Dave Israel has placed Robbins on unpaid
suspension since the incident.  The undersheriff says Robbins spent an
unreasonable amount of time in the tavern.

Now that the supreme court has blasted that into bits, lets go for something else that might cause parents some hesitation in giving over the counter treatment to their sick child and cause them more sleepless nights and bring up their stress level.

....From The Desk of Pete Yates!


So that was when the fight started....


When I got home last night, my wife demanded that I take her someplace
expensive....
So, I took her to a gas station.....
And then the fight started....
****

My wife and I were sitting at a table at my high school reunion, and I kept
staring at a drunken lady swigging her drink as she sat alone at a nearby table.
My wife asked, 'Do you know her?'
'Yes,' I sighed, 'she's my old girlfriend. I understand she took to drinking
right after we split up those many & years ago, and I hear she hasn't been sober since.'
'My God!' says my wife, 'Who would think a person could go on celebrating
that long?'
And then the fight started.....

 
****
My wife and I were watching Who Wants To Be A Millionaire while we were in
bed. I turned to her and said, "Do you want to have sex?"
"No," she answered.
I then said, "Is that your final answer?"
She didn't even look at me this time, simply saying "Yes."
So I said, "Then I'd like to phone a friend."
And then the fight started.....

  
********
After retiring, I went to the Social Security office to apply for Social
Security.  The woman behind the counter asked me for my driver's license to verify my
age.
I looked in my pockets and realized I had left my wallet at home.
I told the woman that I was very sorry, but I would have to go home and come
back later
The woman said, 'Unbutton your shirt'.
So I opened my shirt revealing my curly silver hair.
She said, 'That silver hair on your chest is proof enough for me'
And she processed my Social Security application.
When I got home, I excitedly told my wife about my experience at the Social
Security office.
She said, 'You should have dropped your pants. You might have gotten
Disability, too.
And then the fight started.....


****
A woman is standing nude, looking in the bedroom mirror.
She is not happy with what she sees and says to her husband,
'I feel horrible; I look old, fat and ugly. I really need you to pay me a
compliment.'
The husband replies, 'Your eyesight's darn near perfect.'
And then the fight started.....

A bit of humor from....THE DESK OF PETE YATES!

Two little kids are in a hospital, lying on stretchers next to each other

outside the operating room---the first surgeries of the day.


The first kid leans over and asks, "What are you in here for?" The second kid says,

"I'm in here to get my tonsils out and I'm a little nervous."

The first kid says, "You've got nothing to worry about. I had that done when I was four.

They put you to sleep, and when you wake up they give you lots of Jell-O and Ice Cream.

It's a breeze."


The second kid then asks, "What are you here for?"

The first kid says, "A circumcision."

"Whoa!" the second kid replies. "Good luck buddy!! I had that done when I was born.

Couldn't walk for a year!!"
