8 MORONS OF 2006



1. WILL THE REAL DUMMY PLEASE STAND UP?

AT&T fired President John Walter after nine months,
saying he lacked intellectual leadership. He received

a $26 million severance package. Perhaps it's not Walter
who's lacking intelligence.


2. WITH A LITTLE HELP FROM OUR FRIENDS:

Police in Oakland CA spent two hours attempting to

subdue a gunman who had barricaded himself inside

his home. After firing ten tear gas canisters, officers
discovered that the man was standing beside them in
the police line shouting, "Please come out and give
yourself up!"


3. WHAT WAS PLAN B???

An Illinois man, pretending to have a gun, kidnapped a

motorist and forced him to drive to two different automated

teller machines, wherein the kidnapper proceeded to

withdraw money from his own bank accounts.


4. THE GETAWAY!

A man walked into a Topeka KS Kwik Stop and asked

for all the money in the cash drawer. Apparently the
take was too small, so he tied up the store clerk and worked the
counter himself for three hours until police showed up and

grabbed him.


5. DID I SAY THAT???

Police in Los Angeles had good luck with a robbery suspect

who just couldn't control himself during a lineup. When

detectives asked each man in the lineup to repeat the words:

"Give me all your money or I'll shoot," the man shouted, "That's
not what I said!"


6. ARE WE COMMUNICATING???

A man spoke frantically into the phone: "My wife is pregnant,

and her contractions are only two minutes apart." "Is this her first child?"
the doctor asked. "No!" the man shouted,
"This is her husband!"


7. NOT THE SHARPEST TOOL IN THE SHED!

In Modesto CA, Steven Richard King was arrested for trying

to hold up a Bank of America branch without a weapon. King used a
thumb and a finger to simulate a gun. Unfortunately,
he failed to keep his hand in his pocket.
(Hellooooooo!)


8. THE GRAND FINALE!!! Last summer down on Lake
Isabella, located in the high desert an hour east of Bakersfield CA,
some folks new to boating were having a problem. No matter how hard
they tried, they couldn't get their brand new 22 foot boat going. It
was very sluggish in almost every maneuver no matter
how much power they applied. After about an hour of
trying to make it go, they putted into a nearby
marina, thinking someone there may be able to tell
them what was wrong. A thorough topside check revealed
everything in perfect working condition. The engine
ran fine, the out-drive went up and down, and the
propeller was the correct size and pitch. So one of
the marina guys jumped in the water to check
underneath. He came up choking on water, he was
laughing so hard. (NOW REMEMBER...THIS IS TRUE.)
Under the boat, still strapped securely in place ...
was the trailer!

God Bless....In HIS Service....Dan

You'll never know just HOW many times I've seen #8 (and WORSE!!) happen in person, living on the shores of Lake Erie in the city it's named for!!! :p

Want a good laugh some time? Come, bring a lunch, have a picnic at ANY boat ramp here in the summer. When the people from 100 miles south of here start showing up with their boats, it's a laugh-a-second. :D My personal favorite is the old : Back down the boat ramp to launch, get out of the pick-up to release the boat, realize too late you left it in reverse instead of park..............>glub< >blub<:rolleyes: At least they have a pro football team.;)
