>From Ann
As the coals from our barbecue burned down, 
our hosts passed out marshmallows and long 
roasting forks. 

Just then, two fire trucks roared by, sirens blaring, 
lights flashing. They stopped at a house right down 
the block. 

All twelve of us raced out of the back yard, down the 
street, where we found the owners of the blazing 
house standing by helplessly. 

They glared at us with looks of disgust. 
Suddenly, we realized why...we were all still holding 
our roasting forks with marshmallows on them...

An INTERNATIONAL BONEHEAD AWARD
has been earned by

Courtney Irby,
32,
Joseph Irby,
Lakeland,
Floriduh


Fla. woman's husband arrested for domestic violence, 
she's arrested next day for stealing his guns.


The 32-year-old Florida woman was arrested after she turned in
her husband's various firearms to police. Irby was charged with
armed burglary of a dwelling and grand theft of a firearm after
she brought the various firearms to the Lakeland Police
Department.
The guns belonged to Irby's estranged husband, Joseph, who had
been arrested the previous day for domestic violence.

Police say Mrs. Irby admitted to breaking into her estranged
husband's apartment and collecting his guns.

 I did not even know where the guns were located. I had to search
around the apartment for them, so I could bring them to you,  she
reportedly told police.

The officer speaking to Mrs. Irby responded,  So, are you telling
me you committed an armed burglary? 

Mrs. Irby replied by saying yes, but adding that she was
concerned for her safety and she believed that her husband would
never turn the firearms in.

Mr. Irby was informed of his wife's actions by phone while he was
at the Polk County Jail due to the domestic violence incident. He
informed police that he wanted to press charges against his wife.

The arrest affidavit reveals that Courtney and Joseph Irby
finished a divorce hearing on June 14 and that's when they got
into a bit of a tussle. Mr. Irby allegedly rear-ended his wife's
car in an attempt to run her off of the road. His wife was on the
phone with police while her husband rear-ended her.

Though Mrs. Irby very clearly committed a crime by breaking into
her husband's apartment and stealing his guns, some have stepped
forward to say she should not be prosecuted with a crime since
her actions were motivated by fear.

 Ms. Irby should NOT be prosecuted for protecting herself and her
family. @LakelandPD never should have arrested her, and we as a
state must do better in preventing DV and keeping guns out of the
hands of domestic abusers,  Rep. Anna Eskamani (D-FL) wrote on
Twitter about the situation.

Re:Disable Caps Lock

Dear Webby
Is there a way to disable the Caps Lock key, that does not
require me to remember some weird key combination or
program name? I got Oldtimer's and can't remember silly
stuff like that, especially when I don't even remember the
last time I needed to turn the Caps Lock on.
Thanks
Erin

Dear Erin
Yes, theoretically, there is probably some silly way to
disable it, however, whenever I get a new keyboard, I take a
screwdriver or tea spoon, and pry the silly Caps Lock key cap
off.

Then I trim the underside of it flush, so that the little center
part doesn't stick out farther than the rim of the key cap,
and fill the underside flush with epoxy.

When that has hardened, I glue it onto a fax machine or
onto the coin operated copier at Walmart.

If an occasion ever arises, when I would need the Caps Lock
key, I can esily activate it with a pen.

Have FUN!
DearWebby

A couple was having a discussion about family
finances. Finally the husband exploded, "If it
weren't for my money, the house wouldn't be
here!"
His wife replied, "My dear, if it weren't for your
money, I wouldn't be here."

A couple came upon a wishing well. The husband
leaned over, made a wish and threw in a penny.
The wife decided to make a wish, too.  But she
leaned over too much, fell into the well, and
drowned. The husband was stunned, but then
smiled, "Wow!  It really works!"

Latest news reports advise that a cell of 4 terrorists have been
operating in New Orleans, Louisiana Police advised earlier today
that 3 of the 4 had been detained.

The Police Commissioner stated that the terrorists Bin Sleepin,
Bin Drinkin and Bin Fightin have been arrested on immigration
issues.

The Police advise further that they can find no one fitting the

Two women were in a restaurant and ordered fish.
The waiter brought dish with two fish, one larger than the other.

One of the women said to the other, "Please help yourself."

The other one said "Okay", and helped herself to the larger fish.

After a tense silence, the first one said, "really, now, if you
had offered me the first choice, I would have taken the smaller
fish!"

The other one replied, "What are you complaining about? 
You do have have the smaller one, don't you...?"
