THIS
WEEK'S DEAR JOHN LETTER!
Dear
John,
I
lost my husband to cancer five years ago. I stayed single until my
girls graduated. My youngest left for college last fall and I decided
to start dating. First of all, this is awful. I sure do miss the old
days of dating before the internet. It was so much better. I recently
met a guy that I thought was going to be a great fit for me. We have
so many similar interests. I truly enjoy being with him. He's
divorced and his kids are also older. We spend time with both
families together around Christmas and it went very well, but he's
asking me to remove photos of my husband. I'm just not ready to do
that. The family photo with my kids and my husband is prominent in my
home because they mean the world to me. He has erased every trace of
his ex-wife, but they were divorced. My husband withered away in my
arms. I can't just move on. I'm thinking it's time for me to find
someone who understands this, possibly a widower. My daughter told me
to stop and think this over. She said it was wonderful to see me
happy again and she wants me to try to work things out. Should I
remove my husband's photo and move on with the boyfriend? Or should I
move on and find someone who understands what I'm going through?
Signed
– Moving On, But How?

A Wisconsin couple’s drug bust took a strange turn when one of the suspects told police he cut his product with an unusual substance: his mother’s cremated remains. 26-year-old Austin Schroeder and his girlfriend, 21-year-old Kaitlin Geiger, each face felony drug charges after a tip led authorities to their apartment. According to a criminal complaint, however, Schroeder told authorities his mother died a little more than one year ago and he mixed some of her ashes with a variety of substances, some of which he ultimately ingested.” The complaint does not specify if Schroeder mixed his mother’s remains with any of the drugs he is accused of selling. Geiger told authorities “Schroeder creates drugs with chemicals using a pot on a stove.” (https://bit.ly/2TCRIl3)

A
woman in Austin, Texas, called police after her ex-boyfriend stole
her bag of Burger King in a sneak attack. As the victim approached
her apartment, the ex was hiding in the bushes, jumped out, grabbed
her food and took off. Police arrested Ervin Johnson for theft, and
he admitted he was upset another man was buying Burger King for his
ex-girlfriend.
It’s
a great party trick and useful for circus performers but scientists
say that learning to juggle can cause changes in areas of the adult
brain. Mastering the skill increases the amount of grey matter in
areas of the brain that process and store visual information, proving
what was not thought possible — that new stimuli can alter the
brain’s structure. A comparison of brain-imaging scans of
non-jugglers and other volunteers before they learned to juggle and
three months later, revealed an increase in grey matter in certain
areas of the newly trained jugglers’ brains.

FUN FACT FOR YOU:
Share this with your friends... they'll think you're really smart!
Some
people have an extra bone in their knee (and it's getting more
common). If you were under the impression that the human body had
finished evolving, think again. It turns out that some people have a
bone in their knee called a fabella. And while this particular little
bone with an unknown purpose was once fading away, over the last
century and a half, it's gotten more common. Back in 1875, nearly 18
percent of people examined had a fabella. That number dropped to 11
percent by 1918. However, by 2018, 39 percent of individuals had this
mysterious bone.

A man faces theft charges for allegedly stealing a running vehicle containing a pit bull in the backseat out of a gas station parking lot Friday night in Great Falls before crashing into a power pole just blocks away, resulting in his hospitalization. 24-year-old Tevin Oney Lapier has been charged with misdemeanor theft, as well as reckless driving and operating a vehicle with a suspended license, both traffic violations, according to the Great Falls Police Department. Shortly after 9:00 p.m. Friday, a man pulled into the parking lot of the Loaf ‘N Jug gas station and left the car running with the dog in the backseat. Lapier allegedly entered the 1999 Nissan Altima while the man was in the store and drove away. Reportedly driving at a high rate of speed, Lapier crashed the passenger’s side of the car into a power pole, knocking the pole to the ground. The pit bull managed to escape the vehicle following the crash and ran from the scene. Lapier was not placed into custody Friday night due to his hospitalization. (https://bit.ly/2ugfPvj)

Whatever
happened to driver’s ed? Video allegedly depicting a young man
accidentally crashing his father’s sports car in the most
embarrassing way possible has gone viral on Facebook, with over 2.4
million views. In it, he gets into a Ford Mustang Shelby GT350R
that’s parked in a garage and apparently starts it without first
shifting into neutral, causing it to lurch forward into the
corrugated metal wall with a sickening crunch when he lets off the
clutch. He then jumps out of the car screaming “I’m dead, I’m
dead, I’m f-----g dead,” as his friend captures the moment on his
smartphone. The 526 hp track-focused GT350R has a starting price of
$74,530 and is one of the few cars on sale that is only available
with a manual transmission. (https://fxn.ws/37cCirM)
