Attention Wal-Mart Shoppers!


Mr. and Mrs. Fenton are retired; Mrs. Fenton insists her husband go with her to Wal-Mart. He prefers to get in and get out quickly, but Mrs. Fenton loves to browse. He must find an outlet for his boredom at Wal-Mart. SO after about 25 shopping trips here's a letter sent to Mrs. Fenton:


Dear Mrs. Fenton,


Over the past six months, your husband has been causing quite a commotion in our store. We cannot tolerate this behavior and may ban both of you from our stores. We have documented all incidents on our video surveillance equipment. All complaints against Mr. Fenton are listed below:


Things Mr. Bill Fenton has done while his SPOUSE was shopping in Wal-Mart:


1. June 15: Took 24 boxes of condoms and randomly put them in people's carts when they weren't looking.


2. July 2: Set all the alarm clocks in House wares to go off at 5-minute intervals.


3. July 7: Made a trail of tomato juice on the floor leading to the restrooms.


4. July 19: Walked up to an employee and told her in an official tone, 'Code 3' in house wares, and watched what happened.


5. August 4: Went to the Service Desk and asked to put a bag of M&M's on layaway.


6. September 14: Moved a 'CAUTION - WET FLOOR' sign to a carpeted area.


7. September 15: Set up a tent in the camping department and told other shoppers he'd invite them in if they'll bring pillows from the bedding department.


8. September 23: When a clerk asks if they can help him, he begins to cry and asks, 'Why can't you people just leave me alone?'


9. October 4: Looked right into the security camera; used it as a mirror, and picked his nose.


10. November 10: While handling guns in the hunting department, asked the clerk if he knows where the antidepressants are.


11. December 3: Darted around the store suspiciously loudly humming the "Mission Impossible" theme.


12. December 6: In the auto department, practiced his "Madonna look" using different size funnels.


13. December 18: Hid in a clothing rack and when people browse through, yelled "Pick me!" "Pick me!"


14. December 21: When an announcement came over the loud speaker, he assumed the fetal position and screams "NO! NO! It's those voices again!!!!"


And last, but not least:


15. December 23: Went into a fitting room, shut the door, waited awhile, and then screamed very loudly, "There is no toilet paper in here!"


Regards,


Wal-Mart

Letters Dear Abby Admitted She Was at a Loss to Answer


Dear Abby:

A couple of women moved in across the hall from me. One is a middle-aged gym teacher and the other is a social worker in her mid-twenties. These two women go everywhere together and I've never seen a man go into or leave their apartment. Do you think they could be Lebanese?



Dear Abby:

What can I do about all the sex, nudity, foul language and violence on my VCR?


Dear Abby:

I have a man I can't trust. He cheats so much, I'm not even sure the baby I'm carrying is his.


Dear Abby:

I am a 23-year-old liberated woman who has been on the pill for two years. It's getting expensive and I think my boy friend should share half the cost, but I don't know him well enough to discuss money with him.


Dear Abby:

I've suspected that my husband has been fooling around, and when confronted with the evidence, he denied everything and said it would never happen again.


Dear Abby:

Our son writes that he is taking Judo. Why would a boy who was raised in a good Christian home turn against his own?


Dear Abby:

My 40-year-old son has been paying a psychiatrist $50 an hour every week for two and a half years. He must be crazy.


Dear Abby:

I was married to Bill for three months and I didn't know he drank until one night he came home sober.


Dear Abby:

My mother is mean and short tempered. I think she is going through mental pause.


Dear Abby:

You told some woman whose husband had lost all interest in sex to send him to a doctor. Well, my husband has lost all interest in sex and he is a doctor. Now what do I do?




Election Day is Approaching





An Inspirational Story


Hans Grapje was raised in a Catholic school in The Hague and, as a young man, aspired to become a priest, but was drafted into the Army during WWII and spent two years co-piloting B17s until his aircraft was shot down in 1943 and he lost his left arm.


Captain Grapje spent the rest of the war as a chaplain, giving spiritual aid to soldiers, both Allied and enemy. After the war, he became a priest, serving as a missionary in Africa, piloting his own plane (in spite of his handicap) to villages across the continent.


In 1997, Father Grapje was serving in Zimbabwe when an explosion in a silver mine caused a cave-in. Archbishop Grapje went down into the mine to administer last rites to those too severely injured to move. Another shaft collapsed, and he was buried for three days, suffering multiple injuries, including the loss of his right eye. The high silver content in the mine's air gave him purpura, a life-long condition characterized by purplish skin blotches.


Although Cardinal Grapje devoted his life to the service of God a sa scholar, mentor, and holy man, church leaders agree: he will never ascend to the Papacy. No one wants a one-eyed, one-armed, flying purple Papal leader.




The Computer Swallowed Grandma


The computer swallowed grandma.

Yes, honestly its true.

She pressed 'control' and 'enter'

And disappeared from view.


It devoured her completely,

The thought just makes me squirm.

She must have caught a virus

Or been eaten by a worm.


I've searched through the recycle bin

And files of every kind;

I've even used the Internet,

But nothing did I find.


In desperation, I asked Jeeves

My searches to refine.

The reply from him was negative,

Not a thing was found 'online.'


So, if inside your 'Inbox,'

My Grandma you should see,

Please 'Copy,''Scan' and 'Paste' her

And send her back to me!
