THIS WEEK'S DEAR JOHN LETTER!
Dear John,
I'm having my annual argument about fireworks. Each year my family spends several hundred dollars on fireworks. I've tried to convince my husband that we should scale that back. We're not wealthy people. We have plenty of bills to pay and it would be nice to get ahead a little. He's counting the days to go buy fireworks to shoot off. There are many people in our area who do their own fireworks shows. I'm trying to convince my husband to take this year off. I'd love it if he could just sit with me to enjoy the fireworks that others shoot off. Not only would that save us money, but it would also be nice to spent that time together too. Can you please help me find a way to get him to agree to this? We can't afford to do it this year. Any ideas?
Signed – Fizzled Out Firecracker

According
to an arrest affidavit, a suspect who repeatedly identified himself
as “Michael Corleone” was jailed for providing police with a
false name. Florida cops allege that 54-year-old James
Ransom--carrying open containers of Natural Light beer and Captain
Morgan rum--caused disturbance Thursday night on the boardwalk at
Indian Rocks Beach. According to a sheriff’s deputy, Ransom was
allegedly seen accosting and “yelling loudly at citizens.” After
being detained, Ransom repeatedly told cops that his name was
“Michael Corleone.” In addition to being charged with providing a
false name to law enforcement, he was also cited for disorderly
intoxication. He pleaded no contest to both misdemeanor counts. After
entering his plea, he was released from the county jail after serving
two days in custody. (https://bit.ly/3i0Y9Z8)

Kentucky
has more bourbon than people. If bourbon is your drink of choice,
then you might want to plan a road trip to Kentucky. The state is not
only responsible for 95 percent of the world's bourbon, according to
The Atlantic, but there is also so much of it that the 4.7 million
barrels in the state's distilleries outnumber the 4.3 million people
living in the area.

A man in Missouri was arrested after attempting to escape from police by floating down a river to flee a traffic stop on Friday. The Franklin County Sheriff’s Office said on Facebook the incident unfolded around 8:30 a.m. when the 38-year-old man attempted to escape from police by floating down the Bourbeuse River. The incident happened near the town of Union, located about fifty miles west of St. Louis. Major Trevor Wild, of the Franklin County Sheriff’s Office, told the St. Louis Post-Dispatch the man drove through a hayfield and ditched his car Friday morning before he attempted to swim down the river. Officials said the 38-year-old was initially stopped for driving without a license and failing to yield to law enforcement. The man was seen in the river at 8:30 a.m. wearing a blue mechanics’ type button-up shirt. Officials then stated that the man came out of the river and was caught by 1:30 p.m., five hours later.

MOMENT
OF DUH: Brought to you by InsuranceChicken.com
A
school has been forced to apologize after it told pupils to plan
their own funeral as homework during the lockdown. Parents reacted
angrily after they found out St Paul’s Catholic School in
Leicester, England had assigned year eight pupils the morbid task.
They were told to choose a style of coffin, type of flowers, favorite
hymn, and even their guest list. The youngsters were also asked if
they’d prefer a traditional burial or a cremation. Some Parents
stated that the assignment was “way over the top” and others
added that it would “cause a lot of fear.” They also questioned
if it was the best time to issue the homework considering we were in
a pandemic. A teacher who saw the assignment wrote: “I wouldn’t
do this. Some children can be very susceptible to ideas about death
and funerals.” St Paul’s Catholic School has now apologized and
said the assignment was given “in error.”
