WELCOME to WEDNESDAY FEBRUARY 18th, 2026
Here’s The Story….
My family physician told me of an incident that actually happened to
him back in the early days of his practice.
He said a woman brought her baby to see him, and he determined right away
that the baby had an earache. He wrote a prescription for ear drops. In the
directions he wrote, “Put two drops in right ear every four hours” and
he abbreviated “right” as an R with a circle around it.
Several days passed, and the woman returned with her baby, complaining
that the baby still had an earache, and his little behind was
getting really greasy with all those drops of oil.
The doctor looked at the bottle of ear drops and sure enough, the
pharmacist had typed the following instructions on the label:
“Put two drops in R ear every four hours.” 😮😨😁😎
That’s my story and I’m sticking to it! Have a WONDERFUL WEDNESDAY people, stay safe,
and whatever you do, don’t forget to laff it up! Peace, I am outta here! Eucman! 😁

Ten of them will be on the register; the rest will wander around saying,
‘I don’t work in this department.'” -Jimmy Fallon
“California Gov. Jerry Brown is working on a plan to build two tunnels that will bring
water to Southern California. Of course, it’s California, so one tunnel is for flat water,
the other sparkling with lime.” -Conan O’Brien
“McDonald’s is unveiling something called a Nutella burger at its locations in Italy.
This goes against the traditional way of eating Nutella, which is with
two fingers in the dark while crying at 3 a.m.” -James Corden

The boss joined a group of his workers in the company break room and
told a joke he’d heard recently. Everybody laughed loudly.
Everybody, that is, except Dewey.
When he noticed that he was getting no reaction from Dewey, the boss
said, “What’s the matter, Dewey? No sense of humor?”
“My sense of humor is fine,” he said.
“But I don’t have to laugh. I’m quitting tomorrow.” 😮😮
Tuesday’s Movie Trivia of the day!
Haley Joel Osment plays David, a robot boy (known as a mecha) with a unique ability to love. He is placed with a family who has a son in suspended animation due to illness; and his ‘mother’, Monica, learns to love the robot child as her own. This is until her human son, Martin, recovers from his disease and gets into a fight with David.
As a robot, he is found to be a danger and sent away (Monica, who had grown to love him as her own, did not send him for destruction, but instead to a scrap metal land full of other mechas so he would not be alone). Given his ability to love, David determines he wants to be a real boy, and, just like Pinocchio, sets off to find the Blue Fairy to help him do so. Alas, his search is in vain, but that doesn’t mean he wasn’t able to spend one final day with his human mother, Monica; albeit 2,000 years into the future via a recreation of her.
Answer: Flesh City – Haley Joel Osment (2001) The correct answer was AI: Artificial Intelligence
Wednesdays Movie Trivia of the day!
Mr Wilson is an agent set out to find a Nazi war criminal, Franz Kindler, whose true identity has been erased. The only piece of evidence to his identity is a bizarre love of clocks. Mr. Wilson finds himself in the small town of Harper, where he meets Professor Rankin. Though he is unaware at first, a passing comment about Karl Marx as well as a fondness for fixing the town’s main clock indicates that Rankin (played by Orson Welles) is indeed Franz Kindler. Rankin’s wife was also unaware of this; and, now torn between the love she developed with him and the desire to learn more and take down the war criminal, she must make a brave choice.
Tuesday’s Quizzler is….
Five competitors (two women named Alexa and Breanna, and three men named Larry, Arnold and Michael) recently decided they would race each other for a large prize. Before the race started, each person decided to do a different aerobics class to try and become more fit and healthy. Each had already raced for a number of months in competitions (3, 6, 9, 12, 15). Their surnames are Anderson, Cameron, Douglas, Ewell and Farlin. After two months of aerobics each person noticed a different benefit from their exercise. From the clues below, can you match the full name of each competitor with the number of months they’ve raced before, the benefit each has experienced from aerobics, and the brand of sneakers each wears?
- Arnold, who isn’t surnamed Anderson, doesn’t use Nike shoes.
- Arnold has been racing for fewer months than the woman who noticed an increase in her energy level; she has been racing for fewer months than the friend who wears Brooks shoes.
- The person who has been racing for the least amount of time is neither the man who uses Adidas shoes, nor another person surnamed Douglas.
- The man who uses Reebok shoes has been racing longer than the person surnamed Ewell, who has been racing longer than the person who lowered his/her cholesterol level.
- The person who has experienced weight loss began racing after the
one who gained muscle tone and before Alexa (who doesn’t use Nike). - Larry lowered his cholesterol level.
- The one surnamed Anderson hasn’t noticed any weight loss.
- Ms. Ewell isn’t the woman who gained muscle tone.
- Ms. Cameron enjoys aerobics so much that she goes to the gym at least 5 times a week.
Answer: Larry lowered his cholesterol level (6).
The woman who has more muscle tone (8) isn’t Alexa (5), so she’s Breanna.
The woman who noticed an increase in her energy level (2), then is Alexa.
Ms. Ewell isn’t Breanna (8), so she’s Alexa, and Ms. Cameron (9) is Breanna.
Arnold has been racing for fewer months than Alexa (2), so he hasn’t experienced weight loss (5); he has more endurance, and Michael, by elimination, lost weight. Alexa doesn’t use Brook shoes (2), Adidas (3), Reebok (4), or Nike (5), so she wears Hushpuppy.
The person who has been racing for the shortest time doesn’t wear Hushpuppy, Brooks (4), so he or she wears Nike.
The one who wears Nike sneakers, then, isn’t Arnold (1), Michael, or Breanna (5), so he’s Larry.
Breanna’s shoes aren’t made by Adidas (3), or Reebok (4), so they are Brooks.
Arnold has been racing for fewer months than Alexa (2), so he doesn’t wear Reebok (4); Michael does, and Arnold, by elimination, wears Adidas.
The one surnamed Anderson isn’t Arnold (1) or Michael (7), so he’s Larry.
Arnold’s surname isn’t Douglas (3), so it’s Farlin, and by elimination, Michael’s is Douglas.
The one who has been racing for 15 months isn’t Arnold, Alexa (2), or Michael (5), so she’s Breanna.
Alexa hasn’t been racing for 6 months (2) or 12 months (5), so for 9 months.
Arnold, then, has been racing for 6 months (2). By elimination, Michael has been racing for 12 months.
In summary:
Alexa Ewell, 9 months, more energy, Hushpuppy
Breanna Cameron, 15 months, muscle tone, Brooks
Larry Anderson, 3 months, lowered cholesterol, Nike
Arnold Farlin, 6 months, more endurance, Adidas
Michael Douglas, 12 months, weight loss, Reebok
Wednesday’s Quizzler is….😎😎
Geocaching is the sport of using GPS systems to locate hidden boxes at different geographical locations across the country. Directions and clues are left in the boxes to aid in the journey. Max’s first geocaching expedition took him to the top of five different mountains. He had to hike to the top of each one. On the way he encountered some obstacle. From the clues below, determine the order of the mountains, the height of the mountain, and the obstacle he had to overcome to reach the box.
1 – Neither the first mountain nor the one where Max had trouble with thunderstorm include the word mountain in their name, and neither is as high as Death Grip Mountain.
2 – The third mountain is the lowest of the five.
3 – The mountain which had the wolf pack is higher than Broken Rope Pike.
4 – Max climbed Death Grip Mountain immediately before tackling Widow Peak.
5 – Max encountered a rockslide on the ascent of Free-Fall Peak, and a broken GPS on the highest mountain.
6 – The fourth mountain is covered in 5 ft of snow, and was climbed later than the 6,951 foot Insanity Mountain.
