THIS WEEK'S DEAR JOHN LETTER!
Dear John,
I pay through my teeth for child support for my kids and it leaves me very thin at times. My oldest daughter stayed with me last week and we were instructed to not pick up school supplies. Fine, OK, no mention of a backpack needed. But now I’m being asked by my daughter's mom to pick out a backpack. Now, yeah it could be a special trip and take my daughter shopping let her pick her own out maybe $20-$40 for a nice one. But, am I wrong to tell her mom that she receives a hefty amount of child support a month from me and that’s what those funds are for. Should I just buy the backpack and not start an argument, or should I say something about this? Merely asking opinions, not looking to start a riot or anything.
Signed – BackpackDaddy

An
intoxicated Florida man allegedly spat on a child’s face and told
the boy “You now have Coronavirus.” The disturbing encounter took
place last Sunday night at Ricky T’s restaurant in Treasure Island.
47-year-old Jason Copenhaver first told the boy to take his mask off
at the eatery and asked if he could shake his hand. Copenhaver then
grabbed the boy’s arm and put his face next to the child’s,
telling the boy he now had the Coronavirus. The man later tried to
hit an employee twice, but the worker grabbed Copenhaver and escorted
him outside until cops arrive. Copenhaver was charged with simple
battery and disorderly conduct. Police said he told them he didn’t
know if he had Coronavirus and has never been tested.

First
responders in southwest Kansas were called to the report of an
explosive in a car only to find it was nothing but a beefy snack. The
incident happened at around 4:45 p.m. Wednesday when Greensburg
police and firefighters and Kiowa County deputies responded to what
was reported to be a stick of dynamite attached to the dash of a
vehicle. “Upon units arriving and securing the area it was
discovered that the item in question was a beef stick, still in its
wrapper,” the Greensburg Police Department said on Facebook.
Police said there were no explosives and no threats to the public.

beef stick from the dash.” (https://bit.ly/3koAbZ3)
