WELCOME to FRIDAY MAY 8, 2020
More Thought Provoking Statements for your weekend!
1. I have a hard time deciphering the fine line between boredom and hunger.
2. How many times is it appropriate to say “What?” before
you just nod and smile because you still didn’t hear or understand a word they said?
3. I love the sense of camaraderie when an entire line of cars
team up to prevent a butthead from cutting in at the front. Stay strong, brothers and sisters!
4. Shirts get dirty. Underwear gets dirty. Pants? Pants never
get dirty, and you can wear them forever.
5. There’s no worse feeling than that millisecond you’re sure you
are going to die after leaning your chair back a little too far.
6. Sometimes I’ll look down at my watch 3 consecutive times and still not know what time it is.
7. Even under ideal conditions people have trouble locating their car keys in a pocket,
finding their cell phone, and Pinning the Tail on the Donkey – but I’d bet everyone can
find and push the snooze button from 3 feet away, in about 1.7 seconds, eyes closed, first time, every time!
Hey I’m just saying. That’s my story and I’m sticking to it! Have a GREAT WEEKEND people, stay inside, stay safe, and whatever you do, don’t forget to laff it up!
Peace, I am outta here! Eucman!

some high visibility. But a star? I guess I still think of myself as kind of a worker ant.

Guaranteed to Roll Your Eyes….
Dad is from the old school, where you keep your money under the mattress—only he kept his in the underwear drawer. One
day I bought my dad an unusual personal safe—a can of spray paint with a false bottom—so he could keep his money in the
workshop. Later I asked Mom if he was using it. “Oh, yes,” she replied, “he put his money in it the same day.” “No burglar
would think to look on the work shelf!” I gloated. “They won’t have to,” my mom replied. “He keeps the paint can in his underwear drawer.”😱😳😎

Thursday’s Movie Trivia of the day! What movie is this quote from??? ”
“Now I want you to remember that no bastard ever won a war by dying for his country. He won it by making the other poor dumb bastard die for his country. Men, all this stuff you’ve heard about America not wanting to fight – wanting to stay out of the war, is a lot of horse dung. Americans traditionally love to fight. All real Americans love the sting of battle. When you were kids, you all admired the champion marble shooter, the fastest runner, big league ball players, the toughest boxers. Americans love a winner and will not tolerate a loser. Americans play to win all the time. I wouldn’t give a hoot in hell for a man who lost and laughed. That’s why Americans have never lost and will never lose a war, because the very thought of losing is hateful to Americans. Now, an army is a team – it lives, eats, sleeps, fights as a team.”
Answer: ‘Patton’
The makers of this biographical movie used several written biographies as their source material, along with all of Patton’s speeches for which they could find records. The opening monologue was assembled using his actual words in speeches to troops, with most of the profanity removed (or at least toned down). The film focuses on Patton’s military career during World War II, starting in Africa in 1943, continuing through the invasion of Sicily, his non-participation in the D-Day landings, and his subsequent campaigning in Europe.
George C. Scott won the 1971 Academy Award for Best Actor, and became the first actor to refuse to accept the award, having previously warned the Academy that he would do so, and should not be nominated. According to an article published in ‘Entertainment Weekly’ on 16 April 1993, he did this because of “a dislike of the voting process and of the very idea of competition”.

Thursday’s Quizzler is….
After months of hard work, five scientists have eliminated the need for perfume by perfecting a procedure for creating scented jewelry! By altering the chemical composition of the metal, each scientist saturated a different piece of jewelry with a different scent. Upon completion of the items, the ingenious scientists brought them to the designers at Sentir Jewelers who set a different stone in each piece. From the information provided, determine the piece of jewelry each scientist had scented and the stone that was set within each piece.
Scientist: Dr. Phil, Dr. Ruth, Dr. Seuss, Dr. Spock, Dr. Zhivago
Piece of Jewelry: Bracelet, Brooch, Earrings, Necklace, Ring
Scent: Lavender, Musk, Patchouli, Rose, Sandalwood
Stone: Amethyst, Cat’s Eye, Garnet, Moonstone, Opal
1. Neither the opal necklace nor the piece set with a moonstone is the patchouli-scented item (which wasn’t created by Dr. Ruth).
2. Dr. Phil’s piece of jewelry is neither the lavender-scented one nor the rose-scented item.
3. The amethyst (which wasn’t placed in the ring altered by Dr. Zhivago) wasn’t set in the pair of earrings Dr. Seuss altered.
4. Dr. Spock is neither the scientist who worked on the brooch nor the one who fashioned the necklace.
5. Dr. Seuss scented his jewelry with musk. A garnet was set in Dr. Ruth’s piece.
6. The piece set with moonstone (which isn’t rose-scented) isn’t the pair of earrings.
Answer:Dr. Phil, necklace, sandalwood, opal
Dr. Ruth, brooch, rose, garnet
Dr. Seuss, earrings, musk, cat’s eye
Dr. Spock, bracelet, patchouli, amethyst
Dr. Zhivago, ring, lavender, moonstone
