WELC0ME to WEDNESDAY APRIL 17. 2024
Here’s The Story….
I was working in a scrap yard during summer vacation at engineering university.
I used to work repairing construction equipment.
One afternoon, I was taking apart a piling hammer that had some very large bolts
holding it together. One of the nuts had corroded on to the bolt; to free it I started
heating the nut with an oxy-acetylene torch. As I was doing this, one of the dimmest
apprentices I have ever known came along. He asked me what I was doing. I patiently
explained that if I heated the nut it would grow larger and
release its grip on the bolt so I could then remove it.
“So things get larger when they get hot, do they?” he asked.
Suddenly, an idea flashed into my mind. “Yes,” I said, “that’s
why days are longer in summer and shorter in winter.”
There was a long pause, then his face cleared.
“You know, I always wondered about that,” he said. 😳
That’s my story and I’m sticking to it! Have a HAPPY TUESDAY, 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 wife asked her husband, “Honey, could you please run to the store
and get a carton of milk, and if they have eggs, get a dozen.”
A while later the husband returned with a case of quart milk cartons.
Staring incredulously at the 12-pack case of milk, his wife asked,
“Why the hell did you buy so much milk?”
Her husband said, “They had eggs.” 😳😳😳

“Of all the gin joints in all the towns in all the world, she walks into mine.”
Answer: Casablanca!
Yes, that’s right, “Casablanca” again. This was said by Humphrey Bogart in “Casablanca” (1942). He was talking to Sam, the piano player, after the nightclub had closed and he was drinking heavily and feeling depressed about seeing his former love appear that evening.
