Doesn’t It Annoy You When…
There’s a car alarm nearby that goes on for hours and the owner is nowhere to be found?
There’s a cop car in sight and everyone thinks they have to drive 10-15 mph slower than the speed limit?
You’re reading a magazine and all those annoying little subscription cards keep falling out?
You tell someone that a door is locked and they try to open it anyway, like it’ll magically open for them and not you.
Someone says, “Well, to make a long story short” and then they go on telling it for another 15 minutes.
A friend or family member says “Yuck! This is awful!!” and then tells you to try some.
You have to inform five different sales people in the same store that you’re just looking around.
You can’t find anybody to ask for help in the same store.
You rub on hand cream and can’t turn the bathroom doorknob to get out.
A waiter or waitress is not around at any time other than right after
you put food in your mouth.
That’s my story and I’m sticking to it! Have a Happy Tuesday people and
whatever you do, don’t forget to laff it up! Peace, I am outta here! Eucman!

Guaranteed to Roll Your Eyes….
I was in my wills and trusts course when the professor posed this question to the students: Why do people choose to have their children, rather than their siblings, inherit their estate? After students offered various theories, one fellow raised his hand. “This may be a bit off the point,” he said, “but when I was little, when my brother and sister finished playing with me, they would put me into a drawer.” 😱😐😳
Monday’s Movie Trivia of the day! What movie is this quote from??? “
“A commanding officer doesn’t need brains, just a good loud voice.”
Answer: “Forbidden Planet”
“Forbidden Planet” is a 1956 release. It is a science fiction film that features a number of Oscar-nominated special effects, an all-electronic music score and the first film appearance of “Robby the Robot”. Robby cost $125,000 to create, which was extraordinary in the early 1950s. Walter Pidgeon plays Dr. Edward Morbius. He is the head of a space expedition sent to check on a previous mission in the year 2200. They are soon terrorized by creatures on the planet. In the film, Pidgeon’s character speaks the line while he is consoling Commander Adams (Leslie Nielsen) after his poor performance on an alien IQ test. Canadian-born Pidgeon began in silent movies and made the transition to talking pictures because of his good voice. He continued to act in television and movies into the 1970s.
