tickled the correct way. The rats were like, ‘Why aren’t
you trying to cure cancer?'” -Seth Meyers

Guaranteed to Roll Your Eyes
Sometimes when I reflect on all the beer, I drink I feel ashamed.
Then I look into the glass and think about the workers in the brewery
and all of their hopes and dreams. The people who produce the bottles.
The truck drivers who deliver the beer and the retailers who sell it.
If I didn’t drink this beer, they might be out of work and their dreams would be shattered.
Then I say to myself, “It is better that I drink this beer and let their dreams
come true than be selfish and worry about my liver.” 😳😳
Monday’s’ Movie Trivia of the day! What movie is this quote from??? “
“Go ahead, make my day”
Answer: Sudden Impact (1983)
Callahan, at the start of this film, interrupts a robbery and shoots three of the robbers. The fourth takes a waitress hostage and threatens to kill the woman. Undeterred, Callahan points his pistol at the villain and utters the immortal line. The thief chickens out and surrenders. Callahan has cause to repeat the phrase at the end of the movie when a rapist threatens Callahan’s girlfriend with a shotgun. This time the perpetrator doesn’t surrender and he makes Callahan’s day.
Tuesday’s Movie Trivia of the day! What movie is this quote from???
“Just another American who saw too many movies as a child? Another orphan of a bankrupt culture who thinks he’s John Wayne? Rambo? Marshal Dillon?”
Monday’s Quizzler is….
Henry has been caught stealing cattle, and is brought into town for justice. The judge is his ex-wife Gretchen, who wants to show him some sympathy, but the law clearly calls for two shots to be taken at Henry from close range. To make things a little better for Henry, Gretchen tells him she will place two bullets into a six-chambered revolver in successive order. She will spin the chamber, close it, and take one shot. If Henry is still alive, she will then either take another shot, or spin the chamber again before shooting.
Henry is a bit incredulous that his own ex-wife would carry out the punishment, and a bit sad that she was always such a rule follower. He steels himself as Gretchen loads the chambers, spins the revolver, and pulls the trigger. Whew! It was blank. Then Gretchen asks, “Do you want me to pull the trigger again, or should I spin the chamber a second time before pulling the trigger?”
What should Henry choose?
Answer: Henry should have Gretchen pull the trigger again without spinning.
We know that the first chamber Gretchen fired was one of the four empty chambers. Since the bullets were placed in consecutive order, one of the empty chambers is followed by a bullet, and the other three empty chambers are followed by another empty chamber. So if Henry has Gretchen pull the trigger again, the probability that a bullet will be fired is 1/4. If Gretchen spins the chamber again, the probability that she shoots Henry would be 2/6, or 1/3, since there are two possible bullets that would be in firing position out of the six possible chambers that would be in position.
