WELCOME to THURSDAY FEBRUARY 20, 2025

Here’s The Story…
Eric is sitting at the bar staring morosely into his beer. Tom walks in
and sits down. After trying to start a conversation several times and
getting only distracted grunts he asks Eric what the problem is.
“Well,” said Eric, “I ran afoul of one of those trick questions women ask.
Now I’m in deep trouble at home.”
“What kind of question?” asked Tom.
“My wife asked me if I would still love her if when she was old, fat and ugly.”
“That’s easy,” said Tom. “You just say ‘Of course I will'”.
“Yeah,” said Eric, “That’s what I did, except I said, ‘Of course I DO….😳😳
That’s my story and I’m sticking to it! Have a GREAT THURSDAY 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
I was recovering from surgery when a charity representative phoned
asking me to take part in a door-to-door fund-raising effort.
“Sorry,” I replied, “but I’ve been incapacitated.”
Undaunted, the caller kept trying to convince me to change my mind and volunteer.
I interrupted and said, “I’m incapacitated. Do you know what that means?”
She hesitated. “It means your head was cut off?” 😳😳

Wednesday’s’ Movie Trivia of the day! What movie is this about???
This story is about a man who while vacationing in Turkey, decides to strap 2 kg
of hashish blocks to his chest. He gets discovered at the airport

Answer: Midnight Express!
Billy Hayes and his girlfriend are vacationing in Turkey; while preparing to return home he decides to strap 2 kg of hashish blocks to his chest. Discovered at the airport, Billy is taken by the police. He makes two costly mistakes: he tries to negotiate for his release in exchange for revealing the Turkish man who sold him the hashish. While the police are happy to find the seller, they do not intend to release Billy. He also steals a blanket, which earns him a severe beating, after which he is taken to Sağmalcılar Prison. After months of torture, unsuccessful attempts going through diplomatic channels to earn his freedom, and being sentenced to 30 years to life at his trial, Billy eventually escapes from the prison. The movie, “Midnight Express” (1978), was based on a non-fiction book of the same title that was written by Billy Hayes. Some sources claim that the movie was inconsistent with the book for legal reasons. There are some differences in the book and movie: Billy was traveling in Turkey alone, and escaped by stealing a boat and rowing to safety rather than killing a guard and taking his uniform as shown in the movie. Many believed the depiction of Turkish officials and the people in general was inaccurate and accused the movie of being an “anti-Turkish”; in an interview Hayes stated that he was sorry about the portrayal of Turks in the movie.
