A blind man walks into a bar and says to the barmaid: “I’ve got a really good blonde joke for you.” The barmaid says to him: “Excuse me, I’m a 6ft blonde rugby player, the woman behind you is a blonde shot-putter, and the woman next to you is a blonde bodybuilder. Do you still want to tell that joke?” The blind man thinks for a second, shakes his head, then says: “No, not if I’m going to have to explain it three times.” More… Discount Magazine Subscriptions - Discount Cigarettes & Tobacco - Nutty News Marketplace - CARIBBEAN Travel Deals

“It hasn’t been universally adopted throughout the country. But most areas have at least thought about the alternative and are more open to it now because of the economy,” said Richard Brady, president of the Palo Alto, Calif.-based Matrix Consulting Group that has worked with more than 250 law enforcement agencies.

On Sept. 29, 2006, while on a mission in Ramadi, Iraq, Monsoor and other members of a Navy SEAL sniper team were within a moment of death. An insurgent had tossed a grenade into their hideout, hitting Monsoor in the chest before bouncing to the floor.
