A member of a diet club bemoaned her lack of will-power. She had made her family’s favorite cake over the weekend, she explained, and they had eaten half of it. The next day, however, the uneaten half beckoned. She cut herself a slice. Then another, and another. By the time she had polished off the cake, she knew her husband would be disappointed. 

“What did he say when he found out?” one club member asked. 

“He never found out,” she said. “I made another cake and ate half.” 

 

 

Wednesday’s Movie Trivia of the day!‘ What movie is this quote from???  “Take off those glasses. They’re not regulation, and they make you stand out like a turd in a punch bowl.”

ANSWER: Up the Academy! This was said by Major Vaughn Leisman (Ron Liebman) to Rodney Ververgaert (Harry Teinowitz). Ververgaert wore plastic goggles because things would suddenly burst into flames when he was around. Leisman absolutely rules in this highly underrated comedy film from 1980, directed by Robert Downey, Sr., and starring Ralph Macchio, Tom Citera, Antonio Fargas, and Tom Posten.
