Greetings,
The wife has discovered what she believes is the perfect
Christmas gift for our two-year-old daughter. It is a
Mickey Mouse play set which runs about $50. I was aghast
at the thought of dropping fifty bucks on a gift for a
child who would be just as thrilled with a ball of colored
yarn, but then the wife told me that the play set does not
come with any of the figures of accessories. The complete
play set with everything would run about $150!
So my question is...should I just hide all of her credit
cards and the checkbook or should I actually try to reason
with her and risk creating a confrontation which will
result in me sleeping on the couch until sometime in mid-
January?

Heidi Fleiss' new legalized brothel for women. Heidi bought

*************** BIZARRE STORY OF THE WEEK ****************
------------------ Kicking up a stink --------------------
A US family is suing Greyhound after the contents of a bus
toilet were dumped through their open car sunroof. Robert
and Angela Stokes and their three children, aged nine, ten
and 22, were covered with faeces, urine and toilet paper,
reports the Toledo Blade. The family, from Ottawa County,
Ohio, were returning from a Mother's Day meal out at a Toledo
restaurant when it happened. They were following a Greyhound
bus on an interstate highway when the contents of the bus's
sanitary tank were suddenly dumped on their 4x4 vehicle. The
waste went through the open windows and sunroof of their Ford
Explorer, drenching all five family members. "My client was
driving in heavy traffic. They had nowhere to go. What can you
do?'' said Robert Bryce, an attorney for the family. Despite
being covered with waste, Mr. Stokes followed the bus to obtain
its identification information and registration number. The
Stokes are seeking more than £150,000 damages from Greyhound
for damage to the vehicle and their clothing, plus medical
treatment and testing for infectious diseases. Mr. Bryce said
the Stokes' vehicle was declared a total loss by their
insurance company because the stench and filth couldn't be
removed, even though the interior was steam-cleaned several
times.

LAFF A DAY:
A white guy was having trouble satisfying his wife, so he
went to his black buddy at work for advice.
"Listen," said the inept white guy, "I know you soul
brothers always satisfy your women. How do you do it?"
"Oh, dat ain't no problem," said his friend. "What I does
is stick it in 'em real slow, and then pull it out from 'em
real fast. Keep doin' that and dey come every time."
The white guy went home that night and tried his friend's
technique out. He stuck it in real slow, and then pulled it
out real fast, just like his buddy said. After a while he
asked his wife, "Honey, do notice anything different about
the way I'm doing it?"
"Yeah," she said, "you’re screwing just like black guy."

CLEAN LAFFS:
One day a State Trooper was pulling off an expressway near
Chicago. When he turned onto the street at the end of the
ramp, he noticed someone at a chicken place getting into his
car. The driver placed the bucket of chicken on top of his
car, got in and drove off with the bucket still on top of
his car.
So the trooper decides to pull him over and perform a com-
munity service by giving the driver his chicken. So he
pulled him over, walked up to the car, pulled the bucket
off the roof and offered it to the driver.
The driver looks at the trooper and says, "No thanks, I just
bought some."
