years, there is a 97 percent chance that Southern California
will have an earthquake of magnitude 6.7 or greater. And
there's a 40 percent chance of either being run over or
attacked by Britney Spears. Things are pretty bleak."

After discovering her young daughter playing doctor with the
neighbor's boy, the angry mother grabbed the boy by the ear
and dragged him to his house and confronted his mother.
"It's only natural for young boys and girls to explore their
sexuality by playing doctor at their age," the neighbor said.
"Sexuality?!" the mother yelled. "He took out her appendix!"

An INTERNATIONAL BONEHEAD AWARD
has been earned by
Hans Edward Rogers,
20,
Jackson County,
Georgia
79-Year-Old to Intruder:
'Come on I Got Something for You!'
Then 911 Op. Hears the Shots Start
This is what self-defense is all about.
A brave 79-year-old woman defended herself from a 20-year-old
home intruder earlier this month by firing two warning shots and
fending him off until the police showed up, according to news
reports.
Hans Edward Rogers, the alleged intruder, was driving his
mother's car in Jackson County, Georgia, when he "ran out of gas"
on Feb. 12, according to KDVR-TV. It did not occur to him to
politely knock and ask to phone his mother or a friend. He went
straight to home invasion mode.
Rogers was parked near the woman's house and invited himself into
her home, the station reported.
At first, the frightened woman thought there were two intruders,
WXIA-TV reported.
As the burglar tried to enter her home, the woman hid in the
kitchen.
I'm in the kitchen, she told the 911 dispatcher. I'm watching
the door that they were trying to get in. Ooh, they're breaking
glass.
But the brave woman wasn't going to let the intruder break into
her house without defending herself.
OK, come on! I got something for you! the woman shouted before
a gunshot was heard on the 911 call.
The shot managed to get the intruder away from the door, but he
was determined to get inside, WXIA reported. The man tried to
enter the home through an upstairs entrance, according to the
station.
I'm waiting on you, come on! the woman shouted from downstairs.
When you come down those stairs I'm gonna blow your damn brains
out!
The woman could be heard firing another shot toward the second
floor.
Ma'am, are you shootin' at him again? the 911 dispatcher asked.
Yes, ma'am.
The woman's daughter told WXIA that her mother said she was only
shooting in the man's direction, not actually trying to hit him.
He made the comment to my mother, you know, 'B****, you're
trying to kill me,' because, you know, she was shooting at him,
the daughter told the station.
The elderly woman successfully fended off the intruder by herself
Rogers cowered in a closet until police finally showed up and
arrested him, according to WXIA.
Thankfully, the woman was armed, because there's no telling what
might have happened otherwise. The woman's daughter told WXIA
that she was told by law enforcement that Rogers had medical
issues and hadn't taken his prescription medication that day.
He is being charged with felony first degree burglary, felony
home invasion and misdemeanor criminal trespass, according to
WXIA.
In total, the woman was on the phone with the 911 dispatcher for
10 minutes. Throughout the call, she pleaded the police to arrive
faster.
I'm just scared, Ma'am Please hurry. Please hurry, she
pleaded with the dispatcher. Please, please dear God. Lord have
mercy please
That's why the Second Amendment is important. It's impossible for
the police to arrive fast enough to defend you from someone who
can easily overpower you.
This brave woman proved, like many others, that guns level the
playing field.

Best I could find on the net was this:

Most likely a browser hijacker, you will need to go to settings
and extensions and look for unwanted extensions in chrome.
Should also do a scan with malwarebytes.
Worst case scenario, do a full uninstall of google chrome and
reinstall it.
================
Spyware-search&Destroy also gets rid of hijackers.
Have Fun!

The story is told of a man who got a permit to open the first
tavern in a small town. The members of a local church were
strongly opposed to the bar, so they began to pray that God
would intervene.
A few days before the tavern was scheduled to open, lightning
hit the structure and it burned to the ground. The people of the
church were surprised but pleased - until they received notice
that the would-be tavern owner was suing them.
He contended that their prayers were responsible for the
burning of the building. They denied the charge.
At the conclusion of the preliminary hearing, the judge wryly
remarked, "At this point I don't know what my decision will
be, but it seems that the tavern owner believes in the power
of prayer and these church people don't."

A crew of highway maintenance workers was sent to repair
some road signs that vandals had knocked down in a forested
area. The first one they put back up was a symbol warning of
a deer crossing.
As they moved down the road to repair the next sign, one crew
member looked back and spotted a deer running across the
highway.
Turning to a co-worker he said, "I wonder how long he's been
waiting to cross?"

Look For Phone Networks That Allow Free Calling
Before purchasing or renewing your cell phone plans, ask around
and find out what your friends and family are using. Some cell
phone carriers allow you call people on their network for free,
which can dramatically reduce the number of minutes you
need each month.

I went to a medical clinic for an electrocardiogram. While
the technician was lining up her machine, I told her I have
dextrocardia.
"What's that?" she asked.
"It means my heart is on the right side of my chest rather
than on the left," I answered. "You should set up your
machine to accommodate that."
As she attached the wires, she asked casually, "Tell me,
have you had that for long?"

A doctor told Mrs. Stone to give her husband one pill a day
and one drink of whiskey to improve his stamina. A month
later, when Mrs. Stone came in for another visit, the doctor
asked, "How are we doing with the pill and the whiskey?"
Mrs. Stone answered, "Well, he's a little behind with the
pills, but he's about six months ahead with the whiskey."

Darryl and Harold were in a mental institution. The
place had an unusual annual contest, picking two
of the best patients and giving them two questions.
If they got them correct, they were deemed cured
and free to go.
Darryl was called into the doctor s office first and asked
if he understood that he'd be free if he answered the
questions correctly.
Darryl said "Yes" and the doctor proceeded.
"Darryl, what would happen if I poked out one of
your eyes?"
Darryl said, "I'd be half blind."
"That's correct. What if I poked out both eyes?"
"I d be completely blind." The doctor stood up,
shook Darryl s hand, and told him he was free to go.
On Darryl's way out, as the doctor filled out the
paperwork, Darryl mentioned the exam to Harold,
who was seated in the waiting room. He told him
what questions were going to be asked and gave
him the answers.
So Harold went into the doctor's office when he was
called. The doctor went thru the formalities and then
asked, "What would happen if I cut off one of your ears?"
Remembering what Darryl had told him, he answered,
"I'd be half blind."
The doctor looked a little puzzled, but went on.
"What if I cut off the other ear?"
"I'd be completely blind," Harold answered."
"Harold, can you explain how you'd be blind?"
"My hat would fall down over my eyes."
