News Humor for Week Ending Friday, Jul 3, 2020


1.   To provide Covid-free, stay-in-your-car entertainment, Walmart just announced that 160 of its stores will convert their parking lots into drive-in theaters. ***  Actually, I thought they already were.

2.   In response to an increasing level of public concern, even President Trump’s own advisers have begun wearing face masks.  ***  Now, in the daily security briefings, they can make a negative comment and the President can’t tell who said it.

3.   A Vatican official announced that the late Carlo Acutis, who had been a teenage Italian computer whiz, is progressing on the path to sainthood and could eventually be designated as the patron saint of the internet.  ***  Investigators, however, are looking into a rumor that Carlo was once overheard on the help desk telephone saying, “Yes, Your Holiness, I believe I could recover all the data from the Vatican’s crashed hard drive, but, uh…what would be in it for me?“

4.   I’ve been using this “stay home” time to organize things and make the house a bit more “senior-friendly.”  ***  For example, in the refrigerator I installed a little hook for the car keys.

5.   Actor Dennis Quaid, 66, married Laura Savoie, 27, earlier this month and in an interview with People magazine he said their age difference just isn’t an issue.  ***  Although, he is a little concerned that Ms. Savoie made him get “DNR” tattooed on his forehead.
