THIS
WEEK'S DEAR JOHN LETTER!
Dear
John,
I
made a resolution to lose weight this year. I'm doing pretty well,
but my friends are not very supportive. They've been pretty mean
about it. They are all pretty slender and I'm not. They keep trying
to get me to join them for dinner and drinks. I've explained that I
don't want to do that and they are persistent. They talk me into
going out. Then when I order a salad they harass me for that. When I
drink water I get picked on for that. After two nights of this
already I've decided not to go out with them again. I want to stick
with my healthy plan for 2020. I met a new friend at the gym. She and
I have been encouraging one another. My old friends are very mean to
me towards her too. Do I just cut them out of my life all together?
I've known several of them my whole life. We grew up together. Not
sure what to do here. I still love my friends, I just don't like the
way they've treated me lately. My closest friend actually said “you
know you're going to quit anyway so just drop the diet thing and get
back to your fun self”. That made me cry. What should I do?
Signed

A Louisiana woman is behind bars on a felony drug possession charge after police discovered her methamphetamine stash in a small plastic container that was helpfully labeled “Dope.” Cops responded Saturday night to a West Monroe residence after an unidentified complainant reported finding “suspected narcotics” inside the apartment, which is home to 41-year-old Candyce Neel. According to a probable cause affidavit, through “further investigation,” an officer found the “Dope” container with “suspected methamphetamine inside.” Neel, cops say, left the apartment “prior to deputies speaking with her.” However, she was later arrested after being found hiding behind the residence. After being read her rights, Neel reportedly “admitted ownership of the suspected narcotics.” Neel was charged with possession of a controlled dangerous substance and booked into the local jail, where she is being held on $3,000 bond.

The term “snail’s pace” took on a new meaning in China after it took 76 hours to move an object 82 feet. The move involved a five-story government office building weighing more than 800,000 tons that was in the way of a new expressway. It took 74 days of work to move the long concrete building laterally to the east about 80 feet. While office workers continued to work in the building, the structure was first lifted onto wheels on a track. When the day of the move came the building rolled along the track at a speed of one centimeter an hour.

A Utah man claims he has a 20-year-old McDonald's hamburger. David Whipple says he bought the burger at a McDonald's in Logan on July 7, 1999. He even hung on to the receipt. He says he initially purchased the burger for a presentation he made about enzymes and deterioration, but the burger ended up in the pocket of a coat that was forgotten about for years. Whipple decided to check in on the burger this week and found it much the same. “The pickles, the only thing that's disintegrated,” Whipple said. Whipple isn't the only person who claims to have a McDonald’s burger that lasted at least two decades. In 2015, two Australian men displayed a burger they claimed to have purchased from McDonald’s in 1995. https://www.wvlt.tv/content/news/Utah-man-claims-to-have-intact-20-year-old-McDonalds-hamburger-566722331.html

A
man walked into an Albuquerque drug store and allegedly walked out
with multiple items, using only an umbrella to keep people at bay.
Police responded to a shoplifting call at the Walgreens at Central
and Dartmouth on Friday. According to a criminal complaint, the
manager told police that 42-year-old Michael Johnson was seen walking
through the store and helping himself to alcohol, cigarettes, and
other items all while holding an umbrella. The manager reportedly
told customers and the other employees to stay away from Johnson,
anticipating that they might be struck by the umbrella. Johnson left
without paying. Police found Johnson nearby, eating food he allegedly
stole from the store. He was arrested without incident and the items
were recovered. The items taken amounted to $378. Johnson has a long
criminal history, with most offenses related to trespassing and
robbery. (https://bit.ly/2ZU42i2)
