The Laughter Zone / Leave a note.
« Last post by Den on June 05, 2025, 21:18 »
A woman was furious - her husband was coming home late again. So she left a note on the dresser:
"I’ve had enough and have left you. Don’t bother coming after me." 😤
Then she hid under the bed to see his reaction.
Not long after, he came home.
She heard him walk into the bedroom, pause at the dresser, read the note...
Then he picked up a pen and wrote something on it.
Next thing she hears is him on the phone:
"She’s finally gone. Yeah, I know – about time. I’m coming over. Put on that sexy French nightie I like. I love you. Can’t wait to see you… and do all those naughty things you like." 😳💔
He hangs up, grabs his keys, and walks out.
She hears the car drive off, holding back tears.
Fuming, she crawls out from under the bed and grabs the note to see what he wrote.
It said:
"I can see your feet. We’re outta bread - be back in 5 mins." 🥖😂

Loretta Swit, who won two Emmy awards for her role on the popular comedy TV series M*A*S*H, died on Friday, according to her representative.

She died at her home in New York at age 87, her publicist Harlan Boll told the BBC. She likely died of natural causes, although a coroner's report is pending.

On M*A*S*H, Swit played US Army nurse Major Margaret "Hot Lips" Houlihan. The series, which followed a mobile Army surgical hospital during the Korean war, ran for 11 seasons from 1972 to 1983.

Swit was nominated for numerous awards, and appeared in nearly every episode of the series, including the finale which attracted a record 106m US viewers.

The show remains one of the most successful and acclaimed series in US television history. Its season finale was the most watched episode of any TV series in history when it ended in 1983.

As "Hot Lips," Swit played a tough but vulnerable Army nurse who gained the nickname after having an affair with Major Frank Burns, who was played by Larry Linville.

The show used comedy and pranks to tackle tough issues like racism, sexism and the impacts of PTSD within the military, at a time when US forces were withdrawing from Vietnam and dealing with the consequences of that conflict.

It was based on the 1968 book, "MASH: A Novel About Three Army Doctors," penned by a former Army surgeon.

Well, we would say that, wouldn't we?   ;D

Materials that make good conductors of electricity—most metals, for instance—have a low amount of resistivity because they are made of atoms whose electrons are free enough to be set in motion; whereas insulators such as wood or rubber have molecular structures that prohibit electron movement.

In Tongan villages, it is common practice for children to be raised by older relatives rather than by their biological parents.

The star-nosed mole has 22 appendages covering its nose. They are so sensitive that they can detect earthquakes before they happen.

It sounds like possibly popups playing in the background.  I've not used it myself, but I've heard good things about uBlock Origin:
