WELCOME to THURSDAY SEPTEMBER 24rd, 2026
HERE’S THE STORY….
The new Supermarket near our house has an automatic water mister to
keep the produce fresh. Just before it goes on, you hear
the sound of distant thunder and the smell of fresh rain.
When you approach the milk cases, you hear cows mooing
and witness the scent of fresh hay.
When you approach the egg case, you hear hens cluck and cackle
and the air is filled with the pleasing aroma of bacon and eggs frying.
The veggie department features the smell of fresh buttered corn.
I don’t buy toilet paper there any more. 😯🫢
That’s my story and I’m sticking to it! Have a GREAT THURSDAY ‘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
My uncle was giving me the grand tour of his house. The bathrooms had
excessively mirrored walls but his wife preferred not to look at herself in
such a compromising position. She even went so far as to
place a “modesty plant” so that it obscured the view.
Now I don’t think there is anything wrong with mirrored walls in the
bathroom. I told my uncle: “You should be able to sit and reflect.” 😳
WEDNESDAY’s Movie Trivia of the day!
Which 1995 crime thriller starring Kevin Spacey dares to ask the question, just who is that elusive criminal mastermind Keyser Söze?
Answer: The Usual Suspects
“The Usual Suspects”, released in 1995 and directed by Bryan Singer, would soon earn the reputation as one of the slipperiest crime films of the 90s. Much of the story unfolds through the interrogation of Roger “Verbal” Kint, played by Kevin Spacey, a small-time con artist with a talent for storytelling and at the very least, a selective memory. Dominating the narrative is the almost mythical figure of Keyser Söze, a criminal mastermind whose very existence is treated as the whispered name of a boogeyman among hardened criminals.
