WELCOME to WEDNESDAY SEPTEMBER 23rd, 2026
HERE’S THE STORY….
There was a teenage boy who worked in the produce section of the local market.
A man came in and asked to buy half a head of lettuce. The boy said he would go
ask his manager about the matter. So he walked into the back and said, “There’s
some jerk out there who wants to buy only a half a head of lettuce.” As he was finishing
saying this he turned around to find the man standing right behind him, so he added,
“and this here gentleman wants to buy the other half…”
The manager okayed the deal and the man went on his way.
Later the manager called on the boy and said, “You almost got yourself in a lot of trouble
earlier, but I must say I was impressed with the way you got yourself out of it.
You think on your feet and we like that around here. Where are you from son?”
The boy replied, “Canada, Sir.”
“Oh really? Why did you leave Canada?” asked the manager.
The boy replied, “They’re all just up-tight, homely women and hockey players up there.”
“Really,” replied the manager, “My wife is from Canada!”
The boy replied, “No kidding! What team did she play for?”😎
That’s my story and I’m sticking to it! Have a HAPPY WEDNESDAY ‘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
A young city boy visiting a dude ranch wanted to be appear macho,
so he went out walking with one of the hired hands.
As they were walking through the barnyard, the visitor tried to begin
a conversation, “Say, isn’t that fine-looking bunch of cows over there.”
The hired hand replied, “Not ‘bunch,’ it’s ‘herd.'”
“Heard what?”
“Herd of cows.”
“Sure, I’ve heard of cows!” finished the city boy excitedly,
“there’s a big bunch of ’em right over there.” 🙄

TUESDAY’s Quizzler….
I had a mistress, with beauty and grace,
With a curious hand and fair of face.
She was the first on earth, and made of clay.
I was a gift to Epimethius on their wedding day.
The Gods, they warned her to let me be.
But none of their warnings did she heed.
You see, my mistress was alone one day,
When to me her inquisitive hand did stray.
She gave you sickness, destruction, and greed,
And all of the things from which evil does feed.
But do not be angry, do not mope.
The last she gave you? It was hope.
What am I and who was my mistress?
Answer: The poem is written from the point of view of Pandora’s Box; “my mistress” refers to Pandora.
According to Greek mythology, Pandora was created out of clay. Before Pandora, there were only men on earth. Pandora was fashioned by Zeus as part of his punishment for Prometheus’ theft of the secret of fire. She was gifted with beauty, grace, musical talent and a gift for healing. Finally, Zeus gave her curiosity. He gave her as a gift to Epimethius and presented the box as her dowry, telling them both not to open it. Pandora’s curiosity got the better of her and she opened the box releasing all the evil that is in the world today. However, some good came from it; at the bottom of the box was hope.
