THE SATURDAY NIGHT JOKE

An Engineer dies and goes to Hell. Dissatisfied with the level of comfort, he starts designing and building improvements. After a while, Hell has air conditioning, flush toilets and escalators.

The engineer is a pretty popular guy.

One day God calls and asks Satan, "So, how's it going down there?"

Satan says, "Hey things are going great! We've got air conditioning and flush toilets and escalators, and there's no telling what this engineer is going to come up with next."

God is horrified. "What? You've got an engineer? That's a mistake - he should never have gone down there! You know all engineers go to Heaven. Send him up here! "

Satan says, "No way. I like having an engineer on the staff. I'm keeping him."

God says, "Send him back up here or I'll sue!”

"Yeah, right," Satan laughs, "and where are you going to get a lawyer?"

What should be a simple business enterprise took a turn for the worse.

Colorado Funeral Home Investigated for Decaying Bodies May Have Delivered Fake Ashes, Too

A Colorado funeral home that’s under investigation after the discovery of 189 decaying bodies is seemingly in even deeper hot water. Per the Associated Press, that same business seems to have fabricated cremation record and might have also given fake ashes to families of the deceased


Me? A Waste-Management dumpster is a fine fitting.

I'll be the first to admit, I'm not a NASCAR fan. I know a little bit about the sport. But here is something I didn't know.

SPEEDWAY STAPLE Inside the abandoned NASCAR track once ‘fastest in the country’ overrun by nature and flattened for a parking lot

FLEMINGTON Speedway was once the oldest operating race track to hold weekly racing events until its closure at the start of the century.

The New Jersey speedway was created as a nineteenth-century fairgrounds horse racing track before converting to vehicles.

From our friend Isophorone Blog. Let's take a look at some unique individuals.

I'm not advocating violence. But, I completely unnderstood what transpired in this Texas courthouse.

SAN ANTONIO – A murder suspect was attacked and beaten in a Bexar County courtroom Friday by family members of the teen he’s accused of killing.

A video of the incident was shared widely and sent to multiple KSAT journalists, though it’s unclear who took the video inside 144th District Court.

According to a statement from the Bexar County Sheriff’s Office, family members of shooting victim Ethan Soto attended a hearing for Victor Nathaneal Rivas, who is charged in Soto’s death.

BCSO said after Rivas made a gesture toward Soto’s family members, they jumped a partition in the courtroom and began assaulting Rivas.

Two sheriff’s bailiffs broke up the initial incident, but then other family members “became disruptive,” BCSO said.

Massachusetts Woman Drives Car Into Trash Compactor
How she got her car in there, we have absolutely no idea.


Say what you will about the Subaru Forester, but it doesn’t belong in the trash. If you want to get rid of one, you need to take it to a junkyard, not drive it into your town’s massive trash compactor. And yet, that’s exactly what one Massachusetts woman did this week.

The incident took place at about 1:40 p.m. Thursday in Southborough, Massachusetts, WHDH reports. How, exactly, the woman got her car into the trash pit, we’re not entirely sure. Somehow, she not only drove through a safety chain but also managed to hop an eight-inch curb before sliding into the pit.

If this car is a rockin' It must be a: Genius Award Winner.

Because the guy inside may be trysting with a stuffed animal.

An Arkansas cop last Sunday morning spotted a suspicious car parked outside a commercial storage facility that has been broken into 16 times this year (and 36 times in 2022).

A sheriff’s deputy noted that the vehicle in question was seen “rocking” around 12:45 AM.

When the cop looked inside the auto, he spotted Theodore Morgavan, 55, “having sex with a stuffed animal.” Morgavan, a divorced father of three, lives about a mile away from the storage facility in Midway (pop. 1036)
