Hey mom, would you lie to keep you kid out of jail?
If you found out your kid committed a crime, would you deal with it your own way to keep him/her out of jail, or would you call the police?
This mommy already had a kid in jail, and decided to lie to get him out. A 44-year old mom from Paducah, KY, tried to convince authorities that her son was employed with a letter from an alleged moving company. His bond would be lowered if he could prove he had a job. Get it? Didn't work. Police found out she fabricated the letter after noticing she misspelled the company's name. Oops. source

FUN STUFF
GADGET OF THE DAY
Everything is remote controlled these days...even your grill! This little gadget ensures perfectly cooked beef, even while you're watching TV. The wireless cooking monitor works by hooking the probe into the meat, and hooking the receiver to your belt. You can then check the temp of your meal in real time while it's cooking. It even has a little alarm once the beef reaches a certain temperature. We need beer cans to do this -- once they get too warm, an alarm goes off. We can only dream.

JOKE OF THE DAY
Three men stranded on an island. They were walking across the sand when they came across a magic lamp; they rubbed the lamp and out came a genie.
The genie said "you have three wishes but make it quick." So they thought about what they were going to wish for.
The one man said, "I wish I was at home with my family." so the genie said your wish is my command, and he was gone, then the second man said "I wish I was in the pub with my mates." So he was gone.
The last man said, "I am lonely and I want my friends back."
