WELCOME to THURSDAY JUNE 5, 2025

Here’s The Story….
A lady is having a bad day at the roulette tables in Vegas. She’s down to her last $50.
Exasperated, she exclaims, “What rotten luck I’ve had today! What in the world should I do now?”
A man standing next to her suggests, “I don’t know… why don’t you play your age?”
He walks away. Moments later, his attention is grabbed by a great commotion at the roulette table.
Maybe she won! He rushes back to the table and pushes his way through the crowd. The lady is lying
limp on the floor, with the table operator kneeling over her. The man is stunned. He asks,
“What happened? Is she all right?”
The operator replies, “I don’t know. She put all her money on 29, and 36 came up.
Then she just fainted!”
That’s my story and I’m sticking to it! Have a WONDERFUL THURSDAY people, stay safe,
and whatever you do, don’t forget to laff it up! Peace, I am outta here! Eucman! 😁

“Today, the stock market hit an all-time high. Which is great news, because if there’s
one thing we’ve learned over the past decade it’s that if Wall Street executives
are doing well, regular Americans are doing well. ” -James Corden

“Two Connecticut residents stole over $1,000 worth of candles from the Yankee Candle
Village. The suspects are being described as white.” -Conan O’Brien

pizza, it’s NEW YORK CITY and CHICAGO.” -Jimmy Fallon

Guaranteed to Roll Your Eyes
An inveterate horseplayer paused before taking his place at the betting
windows, and offered up a fervent prayer to his Maker.
“Dear Lord,” he murmured, “I know you don’t approve of my gambling,
but just this once, Lord, just this once, please let me at least break even.
I need the money so badly!” 😲😲

Wednesday’s Quizzler is….​
Victor the Viking lived in a distant land inhabited by dragons and sea monsters.
The dragon population later became a threat to the kingdom. The King, who married Victor’s sister and made her his queen, announced a contest. The warrior who could kill the most number of dragons from sunrise to sunset of next Sunday would be declared winner and marry the King’s only daughter.

On the eve of the contest, Gringo the Gorgeous, first born of and heir to the King, slept early to conserve his energy with his sharpened ax beside him.

Victor the Viking, who almost forgot his ax and shield, rode his black gelding into the forbidden forest and camped there overnight to gain a headstart.

Abner the Able spent the night in his house sharpening his spatha and polishing his bronze shield. he had his squire prepare his stallion for the contest.

Brav the Bold woke up very late the morning of the contest and had to ride his horse like crazy to catch up with the others.

Igor the Terrible, the only warrior who used two weapons was able to kill 4 dragons with his ax and 5 dragons with his spear.

At the wedding dinner hosted by the king later that evening, the winner, who killed more than a half dozen dragons with his ax, and his proud parents were honored by the King.

The winner’s horse was castrated and retired from duty. The winner’s bronze shield was permanently displayed in the King’s Hall.

Who won the contest?

ANSWER: Brav the Bold won the contest. (by process of elimination)

Gringo the Gorgeous, first born of the king, could not be the winner because the winner was not the king’s son. The winner and his parents were honored by the King.

Abner the Able, whose only weapon was a spatha( a sword) could not be the winner because the winner used an ax to kill dragons. Only Igor used two weapons.

Igor the Terrible, who killed only 4 dragons with his ax (and 5 dragons with his spear), could not be the winner because the winner killed more than a half dozen dragons with his ax.

Victor the Viking, whose horse was a gelding(castrated horse), could not be the winner because the winner’s horse was castrated after the contest.

Brav the Bold must have killed at least 10 dragons because Igor killed a total of 9. More than a half dozen means a number greater than 6, including 10.

Thursday’s Quizzler is….​😎😎
The Situation:
There is an island with 10 inhabitants. One day a monster comes and says that he intends to eat every one of them but will give them a chance to survive in the following way:
In the morning, the monster will line up all the people – single file so that the last person sees the remaining 9, the next person sees the remaining 8, and so on until the first person that obviously sees no one in front of himself. The monster will then place black or white hats on their heads randomly (they can be all white, all black or any combination thereof).
The monster will offer each person starting with the last one (who sees everyone else’s hats) to guess the color of his/her own hat. The answer can only be one word: “white” or “black”. The monster will eat him on the spot if he guessed wrong, and will leave him alive if he guessed right. All the remaining people will hear both the guess and the outcome of the guess. The monster will then go on to the next to last person (who only sees 8 people), and so on until the end.
The monster gives them the whole night to think.

The Task:
Devise the optimal strategy that these poor natives could use to maximize their survival rate.

Assumptions:
1) All the 10 people can easily understand your strategy, and will execute it with perfect precision.
2) If the monster suspects that any of the people are giving away information to any of the remaining team members by intonation of words when answering, or any other signs, or by touch, he will eat everyone.
3) The only allowed response is a short, unemotional “white” or “black”.
4) Having said that, I will add that you can put any value you like into each of these words. For example, “white” can mean “my mother did my laundry” and “black” can mean the guy in front of me is wearing a black hat.
