WELCOME to MONDAY FEBRUARY 17, 2025

Here’s The Story…
The district attorney was cross-examining the murderess on the witness stand.
“And so after you had poisoned the coffee and your husband sat at the breakfast
table partaking of the fatal dosage, didn’t you feel any qualms? Didn’t you feel
the slightest pity for him knowing that he was about to die and was wholly unconscious of it?”
“Yes,” she answered. “Come to think of it…there was just a moment when I sort of felt sorry for him.”
“And, when was that?”
“When he asked for the second cup.” 😳😳
That’s my story and I’m sticking to it! Have a HAPPY MONDAY people, stay safe,
and whatever you do, don’t forget to laff it up! Peace, I am outta here! Eucman! 😁

“In technology news, the organization that oversees emoji’s has changed the
lobster emoji after people in Maine complained that it didn’t have the correct
number of legs! When they heard about this, lobsters were like “Thanks for
fixing the emoji but while you’re at it, can you stop boiling us?'” -James Corden

“A new study found that our happiness peaks in our late 80s. Mainly because
all the people who annoyed you are dead by then.” -Jimmy Fallon

“A study showed that every hour of TV you watch after the age of 25 shortens
your life by 22 minutes. That doesn’t sound too bad to me. You’d probably
watch TV with that 22 minutes anyway.” -Jimmy Kimmel

Guaranteed to Roll Your Eyes
My children have never been thrilled about taking naps, but
one day they were putting up more of a fuss than usual.
In the middle of the tantrums, a friend called.
“What’s all the commotion over there?” she asked.
“Oh, nothing,” I said. “Just the siesta resistance.” 😳

Friday’s’ Movie Trivia of the day! What movie is this about???
This movie is about a man who tells his story and gives an
amazing account of life in ancient Sparta.

Answer: 300!
The movie “300” (2006) introduced many to Leonidas and the Battle of Thermopylae during the Persian Wars in 480 BC. The following year, Dilios, a hoplite who served under Leonidas, tells his story and gives an amazing account of life in ancient Sparta. As the elders of Sparta refuse to go to war during a religious festival, Leonidas gathers 300 of Sparta’s best as his personal bodyguards. One of those who wants to join the group is Ephialtes, a malformed man whose parents left Sparta to avoid the law which dictated that deformed babies had to be abandoned. Rejected by Leonidas because his deformity would compromise the Spartan phalanx, Ephialtes defects to Persia, telling Xerxes about a secret path that would lead him to a victory over the Spartans. The result? All 300 Spartans are killed, fighting to the last man. There are very few records revealing the martial arts that would have been utilized by the Spartans, however, the stunt coordinator and fight choreographer used Filipino martial arts, which, of course, would not have been employed by the Spartans. While some historians believed the movie portrayed the life and code of the Spartans in an accurate manner, others criticized what was described as the over romanticization of the Spartan ideal. Zack Snyder, the movie’s director, stated that “the events are 90 percent accurate”.

Manny the Juggler was getting pretty proficient at his craft, letter-juggling! He was able to juggle up to four letters at a time with ease! He now thought it time to try to move on to FIVE letters. He went and grabbed five related five-letter words (one plural) and proceeded to try to juggle each one. Alas, every time he tried, one letter of each word would invariably fall, bounce off his foot, and roll away. Each time he noticed that the leftover letters of each five-letter word could be rearranged to form a new four-letter one! Moreover, when he collected the five dropped letters (one from each word), he discovered that he could add a letter to that new group to make a six-letter word related to the other five five-letter ones! His excitement didn’t last long, as he was still unable to juggle in fives. Sigh, maybe next time!

Can you add a letter to each of the four-letter words and rearrange them
to find out what the original five-letter words were that Manny juggled?
Each word is related.

reps

chap

page

moan

mole

Now, take each letter added to the above words and add another to the
group to create a six-letter word also related to the original five.

ANSWER: reps + A = pears

chap + E = peach

page + R = grape

moan + G = mango

mole + N = lemon

AERGN + O = ORANGE

Sam takes an active interest in the environment and sells many environmentally friendly products at his variety store. Although the items are fairly popular, he wanted to heighten the awareness of his customers, so he held a special Recycling Event Sale. During the sale, Sam gave door prizes to five lucky customers (three of whom – Carl, George and Ian are men, and two of whom – Agnes and Ellen are women), each of whom purchased a different product. From the info provided, can you determine the first and last names of each winner, the item purchased, and the prize each received (each received a different prize)?

1. The five winners were Agnes, the one surnamed Meyers, the one who bought the natural fertilizer, the one who won the gardening gloves, and the one who won the pruning shears.
2. Ms. Steele is not the woman who purchased the compost turner.
3. Three men are Mr. Kraft, Ian, and the man who won the citronella candles.
4. The five winners were George, the one who won the cellulose sandwich bags, the one surnamed Quick, the one who bought the mesh shopping bags, and Mr. Kraft.
