You have a good sense of humour Jim Poor old Atlee's been dead years. How about 19 years of Tory Misrule? Marj Sure can. British justice has been generally crap since the Atlee government got in.

Mr. Cikoch was a biology instructor at a snobby suburban girl's junior college. During class one day he asked his student, "Miss Simison, would you please name the organ of the human body, which under the appropriate conditions, expands to six times its normal size, and define the conditions." Miss Simison gasped, and then said, "Mr. Cikoch, I don't think that is a proper question to ask me. I assure you my parents will hear of this. "With that she sat down red-faced. Mr. Cikoch then called on Miss Hakar and asked the same question. Miss Hakar, with composure, replied, "The pupil of the eye, in dim light." "Correct," said Mr. Cikoch. "And now, Miss Simison, I have three things to say to you. One, you have not studied your lesson. Two, you have a dirty mind. And three, you will some day be faced with a dreadful disappointment." --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free. Checked by AVG anti-virus system (http://www.grisoft.com).

A busload of politicians were driving down a country road when, all of a sudden, the bus ran off the road and crashed into a tree in an old farmer's field. The old farmer, after seeing what had happened, went over to investigate. He then proceeded to dig a hole to bury the politicians. A few days later the local sheriff came out, saw the crashed bus, and asked the old farmer where are the politicians. The old farmer said he had buried them. The sheriff asked the old farmer, "Were they all dead?" The old farmer replied, "Well, some of them said they weren't, but you know how the politicians lie." --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.

Hi, It was too strange not having any email so I am back. My neck is getting better. A lot seems to have happened. Marged has red hair. You look very nice there, Marged, and she is going to Cyprus. I shall be watching the international news closely next week. What is the Damilola case? Our news is full of the 4 Canadian soldiers, on a night training exercise in Afghanistan, who were killed by American friendly fire. Two were from Halifax. The last of the four was buried yesterday. They are the only Canadian fatalities so far. Brian's desk looks very practical. Today we had snow followed by very cold rain. My poor daffodils are lying on the ground. I am glad I decided to wait until mid May to uncover my miniature rose bushes. The Magnolia across the street is almost out but it may wait another few days now. On Sunday I am going to see Stars on Ice starring Kristi Yamaguchi, Lucinda Ruh ( the world's best spinner) and Brian Orser. He is 40 and planning to retire soon so this may be my last chance to see him skate. Kristi is planning to retire too. Jean --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.

TIN OF SPAGHETTI COSTS TAXPAYERS £10,000 By Jeremy Armstrong A TIN of spaghetti cost the taxpayer £10,000 yesterday because a thief insisted on trial by jury. Stephen Phillips, denied stealing the 92p can despite 30 previous convictions for shoplifting. He claimed to have slipped the tin into his pocket and "forgotten about it" after deciding to buy bread. A jury at Newcastle Crown Court took 32 minutes to convict the 23-year-old of stealing the can from a Co-op store in South Shields. But the hearing, involving 24 people, cost £8,000. Bringing Phillips, of Sunderland, back for sentence will add £2,000. Magistrates could have dealt with it at a fraction of the cost. The thief defended his decision to go to the Crown Court. He said: "It is every person's right to have a trial by jury and I wanted it to be heard in the big court." Last night local Labour MP Ronnie Campbell demand a law change to stop such cases. He said: "This is stupid justice, not proper justice." --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free. Checked by AVG anti-virus system (http://www.grisoft.com).
