"THE HOUSTON HERALD NEWSPAPER"

MARCH 5th, 2009

Last Thursday Night Around Midnight, A woman From Houston, Texas was arrested, jailed, and charged with Manslaughter for shooting a man 6 times in the back as he was running away with her purse.
The following Monday morning, the woman was called in front of the arraignment judge, sworn in, and asked to explain her actions.
The woman replied,
"I was standing at the corner Bus Stop for about 15 minutes, waiting For The bus to take me home after work. I am a waitress at a local cafe.
I was there alone, so I had my right hand on my pistol, which was in my purse, hung over my left shoulder.
All of a sudden I was being spun around hard to my left.
As I caught my balance, I saw a man running away from me with my purse.
I looked down at my right hand and I saw that my fingers were wrapped tightly around my pistol. The next thing I remember is saying out loud,
"No way punk! you're not stealing my pay check and tips."
I raised my right hand, pointed my pistol at the man running away from me with my purse, and squeezed the trigger of my pistol 6 times!
When asked by the arraignment judge,
"Why did you shoot the man 6 times?
The woman replied under oath,
"Because, when I pulled the trigger the 7th Time, it only went click."
The woman was acquitted of all charges. She was back at work, at the cafe, the next day!

From around Washington DC someplace:



WALKING THE DOG

A Woman was flying from Seattle to San Francisco . Unexpectedly, the plane was diverted to Sacramento along the way. The flight attendant explained that there would be a delay, and if the passengers wanted to get off the aircraft the plane would re-board in 50 minutes.
Everybody got off the plane except one lady who was blind. The man had noticed her as he walked by and could tell the lady was blind because her Seeing Eye dog lay quietly underneath the seats in front of her throughout the entire flight.
He could also tell she had flown this very flight before because the pilot approached her, and calling her by name, said,
'Kathy, we are in Sacramento for almost an hour. Would you like to get off and stretch your legs?'
The blind lady replied,
'No thanks, but maybe Buddy would like to stretch his legs.'

Picture this:

All the people in the gate area came to a complete standstill when they looked up and saw the pilot walk off the plane with a Seeing Eye dog! The pilot was even wearing sunglasses. People scattered. They not only tried to change planes, but they were trying to change airlines!
