G U A R A N T E D T O M A K E Y O U L A F F….
There was this nun named Sister Mary who, though she tried and tried, could never please the Mother Superior. One day she comes up with an idea: since the abbey was always cold, she decided to cut some wood and build a fire in the fireplace to heat the place up. She spent all day chopping, hauling and stacking wood. Subsequently, she wound up shredding the sleeves of her habit.
Later that night, as the other nuns came into the rectory, they were delighted to find the place warm and cozy, with a big fire roaring in the fireplace. Then Mother Superior comes in and yells, “Sister Mary! Go fix your torn habit this instant!”
Sister Mary, crying, asks, “But Mother Superior, aren’t you happy that the abbey is warm?” To which the Mother Superior replies, “Yes, but when you ax, then ye shall re-sleeve.”
Tuesday’s Movie Trivia of the day!‘ What movie is this quote from??? “Not that mother-scratcher! Bill Parks!”
Answer: Raising Arizona! This is Machine Shop Ear-bender’s (M. Emmet Walsh) response to H.I. McDunnough’s (Nicolas Cage) question, “Bill Henderson?”. Newly married to police officer Ed (Holly Hunter), and trying to lead a straight life, ex-convict H.I. is heart-broken when Ed informs him that she cannot have children. Wanting a baby to share “the salad years” with, and adoption out of the question because of H.I.’s “checkered past”, they feel they have no other recourse but to kidnap a baby from the wealthy Arizona family, who have recently given birth to quintuplets.
Wednesday Movie Trivia of the day! What movie is this quote from??? “If there’s anything ya need – broads, blow, just dial ‘O’.”
Tuesday’s Quizzler is……….
You grasp my handle and give me a push.
I rotate and roll, doing my job.
You put pressure on me,
and I cause division.
Then you enjoy the fruits of my labor,
while I lie, cast aside, feeling cheesy and red of face.
ANSWER: A pizza cutter.
Wednesday’s Quizzler is……….
A different fruit (a total of twelve) is buried in every one of the following lines.
Example: A word is considered ‘buried’ when it can be read like P A R I S in the sentence “Grand-pa(pa ris)es at seven every morning.”
Can you detect them?
Ah! If I get my good ship home
I’ll find a tempting spot,
Where mayhap pleasant flowers will bloom,
And there I’ll shape a charming cot.
Where bees sip nectar in each flower,
And Philomel on hawthorn rests,
I’ll shape a rustic, sun-kissed bower –
A bower meet for angel guests.
Then she who lives and loves with me,
Sing our days of calm repose,
Sole monarch of the flowers will be –
For Myra is indeed a rose.
