JOKE OF THE WEEK
A young man was walking through a supermarket to pick up a few things when he noticed an old lady following him around. Thinking nothing of it, he ignored her and continued on. Finally he went
to the checkout line, but she got in front of him.
"Pardon me," she said, "I'm sorry if my staring at you has made you feel uncomfortable. It's just that you look just like my son, who I haven't seen in a long time."
"That's a shame," replied the young man, "is there anything I can do for you?"
"Yes," she said, "as I'm leaving, can you say 'Good bye, Mother!' It would make me feel so much better."
"Sure," answered the young man. As the old woman was leaving, he called out, "Good bye, Mother!" As he stepped up to the checkout counter, he saw that his total was £85.50. "How can that be?" he
asked, "I only purchased a few things!"
"Your mother said that you would pay for her," said the assistant.

NEWS FROM AROUND THE WORLD
A new feature in 'Just For Fun'... News that I think you should know about...
In Los Angeles: An inventor has developed a totally new type of experimental gun. Police officers aim the gun at a criminal--pull the trigger--and an intense blast of sound waves induces diarrhea. Is this a good idea? If that thing ricochets--things could get awfully messy..
In Winnipeg Canada--on a day when the temperature was well below zero--a woman rode a bicycle naked along the main street to win a radio station contest. She won a heap of money.
Plus a small blowtorch--which she plans to use to help her remove the bicycle
