Greetings.

Today’s news and commentary:

• “Sderot residents want tax exemption” (That’s more than fair.)
  
• 2006 Darwin Awards
  
• “Hamas boosts Temple Mount activities”
  
• “Yes to fighting human trafficking”
  
• “Colorado woman selling snow on eBay” (Submitted by Erin. I wish snow could be shipped; we don’t get enough in Charleston.)

Today’s weird thing is a little something from Emily’s collection, included below. Enjoy and share the weirdness.

A Helping Hand

A priest is walking down the street one day when he notices a very small boy trying to press a doorbell on a house across the street. However, the boy is very small and the doorbell is too high for him to reach. After watching the boys efforts for some time, the priest moves closer to the boys position. He steps smartly across the street, walks up behind the little fellow and, placing his hand kindly on the child's shoulder leans over and gives the doorbell a solid ring.

Crouching down to the child's level, the priest smiles benevolently and asks,

-- And now what, my little man?
-- Now we run like Hell!
