There has been a lot about animal intelligence in the news this week.

 

Apes planning ahead and communicating in sentences, etc.

 

Here are some interesting videos of other ingenious animals.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

If you ever testify in court,

 

 

you might wish you could have been as sharp as this policeman.

 

 

 

 

 

 


He was being cross-examined by a defense attorney during a felony trial.  

 

 

The lawyer was trying to undermine the policeman's credibility....



Q: "Officer -- did you see my client fleeing the scene?"

 


A: "No sir.  But I subsequently observed a person matching the description of the offender,

 

 running several blocks away."



Q: "Officer -- who provided this description?"



A: "The officer who responded to the scene."



Q: "A fellow officer provided the description of this so-called offender.  

 

Do you trust your fellow officers?"



A: "Yes, sir.  With my life."



Q: "With your life?  Let me ask you this then officer.  

 

Do you have a room where you change your clothes in preparation for your daily duties?"



A: "Yes sir, we do!"



Q: "And do you have a locker in the room?"



A: "Yes sir, I do."



Q: "And do you have a lock on your locker?"


 


A: "Yes sir."



Q: "Now why is it, officer, if you trust your fellow officers with your life,

 

you find it necessary to lock your locker in a room you share with these same officers?"

 



A: "You see, sir -- we share the building with the court complex,

 

 

and sometimes lawyers have been known to walk through that room."

 



The courtroom erupted in laughter, and a prompt recess was called.

 

 
The officer on the stand has been nominated for this year's "Best Comeback" line

 

 

-- and we think he'll win.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Thanks Lou for sending your crew to build the deck on Mary and my commercial building.

We got soaked didn't we?

The best part was listening to the No Repeat Workday rock and roll station.

When I told Chris they repeated Hotel California by the Eagles, he called his friend there.

They acknowledged us working at our job on the air, but DJ Pam Landry zinged us good.

She dedicated to us the song  Dude Looks Like a Lady !

Moral of the Story: Don't mess with the guys with the mike. :)

 

It turned out great! In between the rains, Chris' crew finished the plywood, and set down a tarp.

PAUL 'SICK' OF STORMY HEATHER

By TODD VENEZIA


May 19, 2006 -- Paul McCartney's marriage is beyond "Help"- because he's "sick and tired" of his wife's constant nagging, according to published reports.

"Enough is enough," he told pals before making the blockbuster announcement Wednesday that he is going to split up with the ex-model, The Sun newspaper of London is reporting.

Sir Paul is said to be upset over a campaign of shrew-like behavior by 38-year-old Heather Mills McCartney.

She allegedly belittled him about his age, complained about people he worked with - and even had the gall to mock the most famous songwriter in pop-music history because his most recent album did not do as well as he had hoped, The Daily Telegraph of Australia reported.

For her part, Heather has been telling friends that the former Beatle is equally to blame - for not showing much concern when she was forced to deal with complications from her leg, which was amputated in 1993 after a motorcycle accident.

"They had a real humdinger of a row," the Mirror of London reported. "She accused him of not caring enough about her."

McCartney - a romantic heartthrob to millions and a famous animal lover - felt he was falsely accused of having a cold heart.

"Paul decided he'd had enough," the Mirror said. "He's someone who's had adulation and praise almost all his life, but he felt with Heather he could never do right."

Yesterday, McCartney continued to deny the press accounts of his breakup.

"Seeing that so many inaccurate stories have been written at the moment about Heather and myself, all I can ask people to do is not believe them and understand that most of what is coming out is made up and entirely false," he said in a message on his Web site yesterday.
