WELCOME to WEDNESDAY JUNE 24th, 2026

Here’s The Story…..
A man in his 80s is undergoing his regular health check at the medical centre.
“How are you doing today?” asks the doctor.
The old man grins from ear to ear. “Hey, Doc, I’ve only gone and got a 20-year-old
girl pregnant! Not bad for my age, eh? I bet you didn’t think I still had it in me.
And she wants us to get married next month.”
The doctor thinks about it for a moment, then says, “Let me tell you a story.
I knew a man who was a keen hunter, but one day he left home in a hurry and
accidentally picked up his umbrella instead of his shotgun. Later that day, he
came face-to-face with a huge grizzly bear. The hunter raised his umbrella,
pointed it at the bear and squeezed the handle. And guess what, the bear dropped dead on the spot.”
“That’s impossible,” says the old man. “Someone else must’ve shot that bear.”
The doctor nods. “That’s kind of what I’m getting at…” 😮😮😬😁😎
 
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! 😁

Wednesday’s Quizzler is….😎😎
The ABC Express pulled out of the station late one night and began its winding journey up the coast to its destination under heavy darkness. Owing to the late hour, there were only a handful of passengers aboard the small train. At the stroke of midnight, the lights illuminating the interior of the two cars were suddenly extinguished. When they flicked back to life a few moments later, the passengers were alarmed to see one of their number lying on the ground motionless.

The conductor phoned the local police department, and though it was very late, the dispatcher assured the worried conductor that they were sending their very best detective. A bit of an eccentric, Detective Y had an usual methodology when it came to solving crimes. Knowing witnesses to be often be mistaken and contradictory, Y made a habit of asking his witnesses to state to him only one fact they remembered clearly and with absolute certainty from the moment the crime took place.

Y wasted no time upon arriving and, after taking a quick overview of the scene, asked each of the ten remaining passengers in turn to state one absolute fact from the moment right before lights went out in the two train cars. His interview notes are as follows:

Ms. S: I was dining with Mr. J.
Mr. G: There were the same number of men and women in my car.
Mr. J: Mr. K was not in the dining car.
Ms. L: Mr. Q had just entered my car.
Mr. F: Ms. W and Ms. P were talking to one another in hushed tones.
Mr. R: Mr. G was not in the passenger car.
Mr. Q: There were fewer women in my car than the other.
Ms. P: Ms. L was not in the same car as me.
Mr. K: Ms. P was in the passenger car.
Ms. W: Mr. F was avoiding Mr. R and hiding behind a newspaper in the opposite car.

The bewildered conductor watched as Detective Y completed his interviews, scribbled a few more lines in his notes, and turned to announce he had solved the case.

“But surely you can’t have figured out the identity of a murderer simply from a list of seating arrangements?” the conductor protested. “You haven’t even been told in which car the victim was seated!”

“To the contrary, my good man,” the detective answered placidly. “It is the curse of a criminal that he must answer any question regarding the crime he has committed with a lie. The innocent tell only truths, but the lone murderer has been betrayed by his testimony.”

Who did Detective Y arrest?
