Friday’s’ Movie Trivia of the day! What movie is this about???
This movie is about a man who goes through a divorce and loses custody rights to his three children.
Answer: Mrs. Doubtfire
“Mrs. Doubtfire” is a 1993 film starring Robin Williams as Daniel Hillard, about a man who goes through a divorce, and loses custody rights to his three children. In order to see his children more often, he calls his ex-wife, Miranda, who is played by Sally Field, after she places a classified ad in the newspaper in search of a babysitter. Daniel disguises himself as an older woman in order to secure the job, which he eventually gets. The only problem with this is that he must not let anyone, including his children, find out that it’s all an act — that is until they inadvertently find out, and go along with the secret as long as they can.

Friday’s Quizzler is….
We start with what a pen can write
Then add an “s” for a tool of lesser might
Change “d” to “n” for an oath professed
Remove letter one for a condition no longer the best
Change “w” to “t” for something forced apart
Reverse my ends, then add an “h” for what’s atop a chart
Change “n” to “w” to learn how much an item can fetch
Finally, anagram me for what in baseball may follow a stretch
What did we start with?
What do we end up with?
ANSWER: Each line of this riddle is explained as follows:
- word – We start with – A “pen can write” a word.
- sword – Then add an “s” – “for a tool of lesser might” – This alludes to the adage: “The pen is mightier than the sword.”
- sworn – Change “d” to “n” – “for an oath professed”
- worn – Remove letter one – “for a condition no longer the best” – If something is worn, then its condition has deteriorated.
- torn – Change “w” to “t” – “for something forced apart”
- north – Reverse my ends, then add an “h” – “for what’s atop a chart” – Switch the first and last letters of “torn” giving “nort”, then add an “h” giving “north”. “North” (or “N” representing “North”) is usually found at the top of a chart.
- worth – Change “n” to “w” – “to learn how much an item can fetch” – The worth, or value, of something will determine how much money it can get in exchange for it.
- throw – Finally, anagram me – “for what in baseball may follow a stretch” – “Throw” is an anagram of “worth”. In baseball, the pitcher may throw the ball after a certain windup known as a stretch.
