THIS WEEK'S DEAR JOHN LETTER!

Dear John,

My girlfriend and I are on polar opposite sides of the political spectrum. We get along about everything else, but that one thing is something we disagree about. I've been trying to soften her to see things my way... she has tried to beat me into seeing things her way! Only kidding about that part. We are both pretty strong willed. We root for the same sports teams. We like the same movies. We enjoy the same food. We even drink the same drinks. How is it that everyone tells me to break up with her over this one thing. POLITICS! I understand that it's a big thing, but can we make it work? I hope so. I want to propose to her. I thought it would be funny to do it on Election night. I'm ready for it and that may be a way for her to have a good night, even if her candidate doesn't win. It would also be a good thing for me if my side does not win. What are your thoughts? Should I wait until later? New Years? Should I listen to my friends find someone that agrees with me on politics and hope that the rest will work too? Let me know what you think!

In her haste to ditch a bag of methamphetamine during a traffic stop, a Louisiana woman allegedly tossed the drug out her car window and promptly hit a patrolman with the airborne narcotics. 33-year-old Stephanie Dowdy was behind the wheel of a Honda Civic that was pulled over after a cop spotted the vehicle traveling in the middle of a roadway in West Monroe. While approaching from the Honda’s passenger side, a deputy was struck in the leg by a plastic bag thrown out the passenger window. The bag, a probable cause affidavit states, contained about half-a-gram of “suspected Methamphetamine.” Dowdy, who was alone in the car, initially “claimed she did not throw any Methamphetamine out of her window.” She is being held in the Ouachita Parish jail in lieu of $5,300 bond.

FUN FACT FOR YOU:
Share this with your friends... they'll think you're really smart!

Some fungi create zombies, then control their minds. The tropical fungus Ophiocordyceps infects ants’ central nervous systems. By the time the fungi been in the insect bodies for nine days, they have complete control over the host’s movements. They force the ants to climb trees, then convulse and fall into the cool, moist soil below, where fungi thrive. Once there, the fungus waits until exactly solar noon to force the ant to bite a leaf and kill it.

WEIRD NEWS: Brought to you by WeirdGiftOfTheDay.com

Incensed over a pair of scathing reviews on Yelp, the owner of a Florida BBQ joint allegedly physically attacked his suspected online critic, according to cops who arrested the restaurateur. Investigators charge that 60-year-old Daniel Ahrens jumped atop the male victim and struck him several times while outside a residence in Largo. According to an arrest affidavit, the confrontation Tuesday evening began when the victim arrived at the Largo home. The 25-year-old victim is the son of Ahrens’s girlfriend. The victim, cops reported, sought to speak with his mother about “threatening” communications sent to him by Ahrens. In addition to texts, Ahrens allegedly called the man “several times in regards to ‘wanting to beat his ass’ about a ‘restaurant review.’” Ahrens was arrested for battery and booked into the county jail. He was released from custody after posting $500 bond on the misdemeanor charge.(https://bit.ly/2T8KHat)

MOMENT OF DUH: Brought to you by InsuranceChicken.com

A British woman who claims she got “engaged” to a ghost has now called off the wedding because he “kept disappearing” and started “partying” too much. “We’ve called the wedding off,” 32-year-old Amethyst Realm said on UK TV show “This Morning.” “He just completely changed.” Realm said she fell in love with a “sexy” spirit named Ray during a trip to Australia in 2018 — and even consummated the relationship on the flight back home. The paranormal Casanova later popped the question on their nine-month anniversary, and things were going well until a recent vacation to Thailand, she said. “I think maybe he fell in with a bad crowd when we were on holiday. He just started becoming really inconsiderate,” Realm said in the out-of-this-world interview. Her story sparked some spirited comments on Twitter Wednesday — with one observer quipping, “All men are bastards. Even ghost ones.” (https://bit.ly/3iXJ4qf)
