WELCOME to THURSDAY December 21. 2023
Here’s The Story…..
At the airport for a business trip, I settled down to wait for the boarding
announcement at Gate 35. Then I heard the voice on the public address
system saying, “We apologize for the inconvenience,
but Delta Flight 570 will board from Gate 41.”
So my family picked up our luggage and carried it over to Gate 41. Not ten
minutes later the public address voice told us that
Flight 570 would in fact be boarding from Gate 35.
So, again, we gathered our carry-on luggage and returned to the original gate.
Just as we were settling down, the public address voice spoke again:
“Thank you for participating in Delta’s physical fitness program. 😳😳😳
That’s my story and I’m sticking to it! Have a GREAT THURSDAY, people, stay safe,
and whatever you do, don’t forget to laff it up! Peace, I am outta here! Eucman! 😁

Guaranteed to Roll Your Eyes
A blind man was describing his favorite sport, parachuting. When asked
how this was accomplished, he said that things were all done for him:
“I am placed in the door with my seeing eye dog and told when to jump.
My hand is placed on my release ring for me and out I go with the dog.”
“But how do you know when you are going to land?” he was asked.
“I have a very keen sense of smell, and I can smell the trees and grass
when I am 300 feet from the ground” he answered.
“But how do you know when to lift your legs for the final arrival on the ground?”
he was again asked. He quickly answered: “Oh, the dog’s leash goes slack.” 😳😳

Famous for its resurrection of the ABBA smash hit “Dancing Queen”, “Muriels Wedding” became a huge hit, also blossoming the emerging careers of Toni Collette (Muriel) and Rachel Griffiths (Rhonda).

Wednesday’s Quizzler is….
A spoonerism is a pair of words that can have their initial sounds switched to form new words. The pairs need only sound the same, not necessarily be spelled the same (power saw & sour paw, horse cart & coarse heart). There may sometimes be one or two connecting words (kick the stone & stick the cone, king of the rats & ring of the cats). Given the following definitions, what are the spoonerisms?
1) spoiled Neanderthal child & courageous cougar
2) child of a sorceress & liquid in a trench
3) milk and cheese & fops who are imaginary beings with magical powers
4) fondle feathers & Amsterdam
ANSWER: 1) cave brat & brave cat
2) witch daughter & ditch water
3) dairy foods & fairy dudes
4) touch down & Dutch town
Thursday’s Quizzler is….
Three brothers share a family sport:
A non-stop marathon
The oldest one is fat and short
And trudges slowly on
The middle brother’s tall and slim
And keeps a steady pace
The youngest runs just like the wind,
Speeding through the race
“He’s young in years, we let him run,”
The other brothers say
“‘Cause though he’s surely number one,
He’s second, in a way.”
