receptionist if the hotel had a weight room. 

"No," she replied, "but we have a lobby and you can wait there."

Closing sermon words A preacher was completing a temperance
sermon: with great expression he said,
"If I had all the beer in the world, I'd take it and throw it into the

With even greater emphasis he said, "And if I had all the
wine in the world, I'd take it and throw it into the river."

And then finally, he said, "And if I had all the whiskey in the world,
I'd take it and throw it into the river."

He sat down. The song leader then stood very cautiously and

Illegal immigrant runs over, 
kills a father of 4, does not stop

An illegal immigrant from Guatemala is under arrest and charged in the
hit-and-run death of a motorcyclist in Omaha, Nebraska.

Juan J. Moreno-Tamayo, a father of four kids, was riding his motorcycle
last week when Luis Velasquez-Ortiz, an illegal immigrant, ran through
a stop sign and struck Moreno-Tamayo. Velasquez-Ortiz then fled the
scene, running over Moreno-Tamayo, killing him in the process.

Velasquez-Ortiz was later arrested at his home, after police tracked
his Ford Explorer registration through witnesses, who got his license
plate. He has been in the United States illegally for 15 years, but
used forged documents to work at a local beef company and register his
car. He had been arrested twice before, including on a DUI charge. It
is unclear if authorities discovered his illegal status prior to his
current arrest.

Luis Velasquez-Ortiz, 42, faced court on Monday in Omaha where a judge
set his bond at $2 million after deeming him to be a flight risk.

Officials said Velasquez-Ortiz has lived in Omaha for 15 years but he
is in the US illegally from Guatemala. He worked at Nebraska Beef.

He is accused of fleeing the crash scene at 32nd and Q Streets last
Wednesday after his Ford Explorer collided with the motorcycle.

Police said he failed to stop at a stop sign and pulled into the
intersection.

Juan J. Moreno-Tamayo, the 31-year-old motorcyclist, ended up stuck
under the Ford Explorer.

Velasquez-Ortiz is accused of then accelerating and running over the
father of four as he fled the scene.

Moreno-Tamayo, who was wearing a DOT approves helmet, died at the
scene.

Re: Moving

Dear Webby,
My question and PLEASE don't laugh because I never did this
before and I don't know how. This is my very first computer.
I have things on here, by checking acct., bills I pay online,
other web sites, stored things like recipes etc.,
How do I go about changing addresses on all of them if I
have to move and once moved will my computer still have all
the info once plugged back in? Seriously Webby, I DO NOT
know that's why I'm asking you. You never steered me wrong
before. Thank You.
Chris

Dear Chris
It depends on how far you are going to move.
If you move to the moon, then your address will change from
gmail to gmoon.
There is also gmars, gvenus, and gheaven.

There is no ghell. If you go to hell, 
you'll have to use AOL.

However, if you stay on earth, then your gmail email address
won't change.

If you use the same ISP at the new place, for example earthlink,
then all you change is the dial-up number to the number of
that town. They even have a 1-800 for areas between towns, where they
have a proper dial-up number.

Everything else will stay the same.
You can change the default shipping address at DELL,
Victoria's Secret, and wherever you shop, when you place
a new order.

The very first sex education classes were in the 50's. Naturally,
some of the teachers were embarrassed and used only very
carefully chosen words.

In one class, the teacher was explaining the anatomy of
the male genitalia. He said, "The human male testicles are
about the size of Plover's eggs."

A female voice from the back quipped, "Hey... Neat !!!
I've always wondered how big Plover's eggs were."

"Political Correctness is a doctrine fostered by a delusional,
illogical liberal minority and rabidly promoted by an
unscrupulous liberal press, which holds forth the proposition
that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd by the clean end."

(This definition has been attributed to students at Texas A&M
University. Just so you will know that Aggies know how to do
more than build bonfires.)

Aphid Repellent Plants
You can help prevent aphid infestations on your vegetables
by interplanting them with plants that repel aphids. Some
examples are anise, chives, coriander, garlic, onions,
petunias and radish. Another trick is lay some aluminum
foil around the base of a plant, the reflection will help deter
the aphids.

I know you old salts will remember the old days of wooden
ships and Iron men, and signalmen.

The aircraft carrier U.S.S. Abraham Lincoln was finally
inching up to the pier at Pearl Harbor when the Captain
of the ship noticed a sailor on the flight deck gesturing
wildly with semaphore flags. He then noticed an attractive
young woman standing on top of a station wagon, also
waving semaphore flags.

Always concerned about security and never having seen
something like this, the Captain barked at his Bridge
Signalman, "What message are those two people sending?"
The Signalman concentrated intently and soon reported,
"Sir, he is sending FOXTROT-FOXTROT and she is sending
ECHO -FOXTROT." Not having any clue as to what these
messages could mean, the Captain dispatched an armed
Marine to escort the sailor back to the Bridge.

The sailor arrived, out of breath from running up the many
ladders to the bridge, and saluted smartly.
"Seaman Endicott reporting as ordered, sir!"

"Seaman", shouted the Captain, "Who is that woman on the
pier and why are you exchanging signals FF and EF?"

"Sir, that's my wife, Sir, and she wants to eat first!"

blackboard. "Now," she asked Johnny, "what word would we
have if we placed a "K" in the front?"

After a moment's reflection, Johnny said, "Canoe?"
