WELC0ME to THURSDAY APRIL 11. 2024

Here’s The Story…

Little Noah came into the house with a new harmonica.
“Grandpa, do you mind if I play this in here?”
“Of course not, Noah. I love music. In fact, when your
grandma and I were young, music saved my life.”
“What happened?”
“Well, it was during the famous Johnstown flood. The dam
broke and when the water hit out house it knocked it right
off the foundation. Grandma got on the dining room table and floated out safely.”
“What about you?”
“Me? I accompanied her on the piano!” 😳😳
That’s my story and I’m sticking to it! Have a HAPPY THURSDAY, people, stay safe,
and whatever you do, don’t forget to laff it up! Peace, I am outta here! Eucman! 😁

“A new study finds that Americans have on average become several inches
shorter in the past 100 years. But scientists say it’s mainly because we’re
all looking down at our phones.” -Jimmy Fallon

“Auntie Anne’s has announced it will begin selling pumpkin spice pretzel nuggets
next month. So if you like pumpkin spice and you like eating at the mall…
you could probably use some good news.” -Seth Meyers

“I’ve been trying to say ‘I love you’ more often, starting this morning. I said it
to my family before I left the house. And then to my barista. And then to her
manager, when the barista complained that one of the customers
was making her uncomfortable.” -Stephen Colbert

Guaranteed to Roll Your Eyes
One day while jogging, a middle-aged man noticed a tennis ball lying by the
side of the walk. Being fairly new and in good condition, he picked the ball up,
put it in his pocket and proceeded on his way. Waiting at the cross street for the
light to change, he noticed a young woman standing next to him smiling.
Noticing the rather distinct bulge she asked, “What do you have in your pocket?”
“Tennis ball,” the man said, smiling back. “Wow!” said the woman looking upset.
“That must hurt. I once had tennis elbow and the pain was terrible!” 😳😳😳

Wednesday’s’ Movie Trivia of the day! What movie is this quote from???
“I’m sexy. I’m cute, I’m popular to boot. I’m pitchin’, great hair, the guys all love to stare. I’m wanted, I’m hot, I’m everything you’re not. I’m pretty, I’m cool, I dominate this school. Hate us ‘coz we’re beautiful, but we don’t like you either. We’re cheerleaders, we are cheerleaders!”

Answer: Bring It On!
This is a 2000 movie about cheerleading. Kirsten Dunst plays the captain of her high school cheerleading team that is getting ready to go to national championships. She found out that the captain before her had been stealing their rivals cheer routines for many years. She realizes there may be some trouble from the other team and they soon face some stiff competition going up against each other. That one cheer was just an example of what the one team would do. Not quite the type of cheerleading I did way back in my day.

Thursday’s Movie Trivia of the day! What movie is this quote from???
“Cindy, you know by tattling on your friends, you’re really just tattling on yourself. By tattling on your friends, you’re just telling them that you’re a tattletale. Now, is that the tale you want to tell?”

Wednesday’s Quizzler is….​
Before I came, confusion abounded.
I’m late, I’m late was frequently sounded.

I’m not average, but was based on a mean.
My size, in theory, is constant: fifteen.

I’m two dozen steps, again in theory.
But walk my length and you’d get weary.

I take half and quarter steps at times.
In reality, I don’t follow the lines.

I shrink to nothing in two cold extremes.
Over a thousand miles wide in the betweens.

What am I?

ANSWER: Time zones.
Before the invention of standard time zones, each city or region could have its own local time. This became increasingly awkward as railways and telecommunications improved.

Originally, time zones based their time on Greenwich Mean Time (GMT). Mean solar time is defined by the rotation of the Earth, which is not constant in rate. Starting January 1, 1972, a new system was used, Coordinated Universal Time (UTC), which used a fixed rate and added leap seconds when necessary to compensate for variations in the rotation of the Earth.

In theory, there are 24 time zones, making each a constant 15 degrees of longitude apart. A time zone varies in width from zero miles at both poles to over 1000 miles at the equator.

In reality, there are about 40 time zones, and the border between time zones is irregular, following political or geographical boundaries. The island of Newfoundland, India, and parts of Australia use half-hour deviations from standard time, and some nations use quarter-hour deviations.

Canada’s Sir Sandford Fleming first proposed time zones for the entire world in 1876. Most major countries had adopted hourly time zones by 1929.

Thursday’s Quizzler is….​
Al and Ben are standing back to back next to a railroad track. When the front of a train passes them, Al starts to walk in the opposite direction of the train, while Ben starts to walk in the same direction as the train. Each stops walking when the back of the train passes him. If the two of them walk at the same speed, and Al walks exactly 30 feet, and Ben walks exactly 45 feet, how long is the train?
