Here’s The Story…..
Two factory workers are talking.
The woman says, “I can make the boss give me the day off.”
The man replies, “And how would you do that?”
The woman says, “Just wait and see.” She then hangs upside-down from the ceiling.
The boss comes in and says, “What are you doing?”
The woman replies, “I’m a light bulb.”
The boss then says, “You’ve been working so much that you’ve gone crazy.
I think you need to take the day off.”
The man starts to follow her and the boss says, “Where are you going?”
The man says, “I’m going home, too. I can’t work in the dark.” 😯😂
That’s my story and I’m sticking to it! Have a HAPPY THURSDAY ‘people, stay safe,
and whatever you do, don’t forget to laff it up! Peace, I am outta here! Eucman! 😁
Classic Jokes That Never Fail
One day an English grammar teacher was looking ill.
A student asked, “What’s the matter?”
“Tense,” answered the teacher, describing how he felt.
The student paused, then continued, “What was the matter?
What has been the matter? What might have been the matter… ?” 😯
Wednesday’s Movie Trivia of the day!
The Band needs new instruments. Who is the famous blind pianist and singer
who plays the part of the owner of the music shop?
Answer: Ray Charles!
My favourite quote from Ray Charles is, “I never wanted to be famous. I only wanted to be great”. Ray Charles’ real name was Ray Charles Robinson. He dropped the last name so that he would not be confused with the famous boxer, Sugar Ray Robinson. Over his long career Ray Charles embraced many music styles: blues, country, gospel, jazz and big band music.
Thursdays July Movie Trivia of the day!
How do the boys get their big gig?
Wednesday’s Quizzler is….
Can you figure out what A.A. Milne was referring to in this verse
from his “When We Were Very Young” book?
She wore her yellow sun-bonnet,
She wore her greenest gown;
She turned to the south wind
And curtsied up and down.
She turned to the sunlight
And shook her yellow head,
And whispered to her neighbour:
“Winter is dead.”
Answer: A daffodil
The poem is exactly how A.A. Milne wrote it for his son Christopher Robin, and his
collections of verse and stories of Winnie-the Pooh have been favourites of children all over the world.
“When We Were Very Young” was first published on November 6th, 1924.
THURSDAY’s Quizzler….
Forrie Agincourt and Sarah Bellum alit from the train at Union Station. As they followed the crowd toward the stores, Forrie carefully dodged anyone wearing a small hat. Sarah Bellum watched him for a minute, finally figuring out that he was practicing “cap-shun” from their on-board word game. She giggled and leaned forward to speak to him over the bustle of the crowd.
“We came in on location #9; I hope we get one higher on the way home.”
“Huh? Why?” Forrie asked.
“I’ve been under too much ten-shun lately.” Forrie made a horrid face and mimed sticking a finger down his throat.
“You can get away with that once, but not twice, young man!”
“I’m sorry, Aunt …”, and he noticed the smirk on her face.
“For every ac-shun, there is an equal and opposite re-ack-shun. I’d have to avoid the second time, right?”
Forrie’s face twisted in on itself, but he kept his fingers away from his mouth.
“I was going to wait for the trip home, but I think I’d better retaliate now.”
“You have more shun words?”
“Yup.”
How many of Forrie’s avoidances can you puzzle out?
- Avoidance of train rails
- Avoidance of the 4×100-meter race
- Avoidance of sodium
- Avoidance of police “sting” operations
- Avoidance of California’s largest city
- Avoidance of top marks in school
- Avoidance of the Three Stooges’ leader
