Edit: It’s not Thunderbird’s scripts’ fault because a demo of JAWS 12 even crashes when I try and open the keyboard manager and it doesn’t know about those scripts. I’m so confused. Here’s a weird one, and I haven’t been able to find the answer anywhere, so hey, why not put it up here? Maybe …

Misconceptions About Guide Dogs
Also got this from Amanda. Carlos Palomino is compiling a list of sorts of misconceptions he’s had to deal with to do with having a guide dog. Here’s the beginnings of it. I can’t believe that tons of people think they have to pick up the crap with their bare hands! Seriously? I always knew …
Party-Crasher
Thanks Amanda for this one. Anthony Washington just wasn’t getting into the playboy mansion. He should have realized that when security turned him away. But oh he was going to try again. So he climbed a tree…and fell to his death. It sounds like the branch he stood on just wasn’t strong enough to hold …
Dealing In Stupidity
A little note to Walter Allen. Right out of the gate, the federal reserve doesn’t deal in cheques. So, using a fake one to buy 2 Bentleys is a bad idea. If you’re going to use a fake cheque, don’t use your real driver’s license. And while I’m at it, what the hell was a …
Burning Questions
Note to Anne Semenovich: If you plan to kill your husband and then burn him in an incinerator, a. when asked what you need an industrial incinerator for, do not answer honestly. And b. When the incinerator fails to burn said husband’s body, don’t call the same repairmen who you told of your plans. Oh, …

According to reports from flight staff on an airplane, Neil Prendeville, a popular radio personality, just unzipped his pants and started wackin’ it while sitting in his seat between two passengers. He apologized on air for the incident, claiming that he had …
Hope You Trust Your Doctor
*shiver*! If you need genetal surgery, make sure you get it from a doctor you trust. *shudder*. Otherwise you might end up like CAROLYN DeWaegeneire. She says that she went in to have a precancerous piece of skin removed from her vulva, but just before the anesthesia took her under, the doctor leaned close to …
The Keys To His Own Demise
Here’s why noone should deal with Cabral Chrysler-Jeep-Dodge. They would sell a truck to a guy with some pretty serious dementia. Yup, a guy in pyjamas and slippers who fell twice when they tried to pick him up from his care home where he had been staying. And they knew about his condition because his …
I Finally Read Kate’s Book!
A long, long time ago, I mentioned Kate’s book ‘Dread Crew: Pirates of the Backwoods’ and wondered if it would be available in alternative format. Well, then a long time ago, Barb managed to score a copy, and sent it to me. “Read it,” she said. “It’s awesome!” Well, I meant to…and I meant to…and …
Hush, Little Baby, Don’t Say A Word, Granny’s Gonna Sell You…Oh No The Cops Heard.
Here comes another story of someone selling a kid. In this one, it was the 12-week-old kid’s grandmother who was trying to sell the poor little boy for $30000. To make things even worse, the kid’s mom was in jail. If mommy cared about her kid, wouldn’t that be a horrible thing to come out …
