WELC0ME to MONDAY January 22. 2024

Here’s The Story…..
Hank finally found the nerve to tell his fiancee that he had to break
off their engagement so that he could marry another woman.
“Can she cook like I can?” the distraught woman asked.
“Not on her best day.” Hank replied.
“Does she buy you expensive gifts like I do?” she asked.
“No, she’s broke.”
“Well then, is it sax?”
“Nope,… nobody does it like you, babe.”
“Then what is it? What can she do for you that I can’t?”
“She can sue me for child support.” 😳
That’s my story and I’m sticking to it! Have a GREAT MONDAY, people, stay safe,
and whatever you do, don’t forget to laff it up! Peace, I am outta here! Eucman! 😁

Change will not come if we wait for some other person or some other time.
We are the ones we’ve been waiting for. We are the change that we seek.
Barack Obama

To improve is to change; to be
perfect is to change often.
Winston Churchill

When we are no longer able to change a situation –
we are challenged to change ourselves. Viktor E. Frankl

Guaranteed to Roll Your Eyes
A grandmother overheard her 5-year-old granddaughter playing “wedding.”
The wedding vows went like this: “You have the right to remain silent, anything
you say may be held against you; you have the right to have an attorney present.
You may kiss the bride.” Wife to Husband: “If I die, I want you to promise me,
in the funeral procession, you’ll let my mother ride in the first car with you.”
Husband: “All right, but it will ruin my day.” 😳

Friday’s’ Movie Trivia of the day! What movie is this quote from??? “
“Travelling through space ain’t like dusting crops boy.”

Answer: Star Wars!
“Star Wars” treated moviegoers to a classic story of inter-galactic cops and robbers. We watched in awe as a small band of pure-hearted rebels fought back against the evil clutches of the Emperor, winning a significant victory in the destruction of the Empire’s weapon of mass destruction – the Death Star. This line was said early in the movie, when Luke and Obi Wan were trying to return the droids to Alderan. As they attempted to begin their journey, they found themselves under attack by Imperial spaceships. Han needed time to prepare to make the jump into hyper-space, time that he wasn’t being given. Luke was critical of Han’s piloting, and Han responded with this quote.
George Lucas directed the then virtually unknown Harrison Ford to stardom with this incredible film.

Below is a sonnet called “Washington Crossing the Delaware”, written by David Shulman in 1936. Besides being an epic retelling of an epic historical happening, what is so amazing about this poem?
Washington Crossing the Delaware
A hard, howling, tossing water scene.
Strong tide was washing hero clean.
“How cold!” Weather stings as in anger.
O Silent night shows war ace danger!
The cold waters swashing on in rage.
Redcoats warn slow his hint engage.
When star general’s action wish’d “Go!”
He saw his ragged continentals row.
Ah, he stands – sailor crew went going.
And so this general watches rowing.
He hastens – winter again grows cold.
A wet crew gain Hessian stronghold.
George can’t lose war with’s hands in;
He’s astern – so go alight, crew, and win!

— David Shulman
