Ten Paraprosdokians…
Evening news is where they begin with ‘Good evening’, and then proceed to tell you why it isn’t.
To steal ideas from one person is plagiarism. To steal from many is research.
A bus station is where a bus stops. A train station is where a train stops. On my desk, I have a workstation.
How is it one careless match can start a forest fire, but it takes a whole box to start a campfire?
I thought I wanted a career, turns out I just wanted paychecks.
A bank is a place that will lend you money if you can prove that you don’t need it.
I didn’t say it was your fault, I said I was blaming you.
Why does someone believe you when you say there are four billion stars, but they have to check when you say the paint is wet?

Behind every successful man is his woman. Behind the fall of a successful man is usually another woman.
That’s my story and I’m sticking to it! Have a WONDERFUL MONDAY ‘people, stay safe,
and whatever you do, don’t forget to laff it up! Peace, I am outta here! Eucman! 😁
Quirky English Logic
Have you noticed that there is neither apple nor pine in pineapple?
And there are no hogs in Hogmanay.
And why is it that writers write but fingers don’t fing, grocers don’t groce and hammers don’t ham?

FRIDAY’s Movie Trivia of the day!
This Cold War spy thriller, based on a Tom Clancy novel, was released in 1990 and centers on a Soviet submarine captain going rogue with a cutting-edge nuclear submarine. What movie is it?
Answer: The Hunt for Red October! “The Hunt for Red October” was the first Tom Clancy novel to be adapted into a feature film. The story surrounds Captain Marko Ramius, a highly respected Soviet submariner in command of the Red October, a new Typhoon class submarine equipped with an experimental silent propulsion system known as the caterpillar drive, which sounds like a strange term to use in aquatic propulsion. When Ramius heads into the Atlantic, both NATO and the Soviet Navy scramble to figure out whether he is planning an attack or something far more embarrassing for the USSR. Meanwhile, Alec Baldwin is CIA analyst Jack Ryan in his first and only outing in the role.

FRIDAY’s Quizzler….
A riddle game is played below,
Can you name this charming fellow?
Someone looks me in the eye
I know who, and I know why
I know them well, and they know me
A very special bond, have we
We share the same thoughts, and the same place
We agree always in every case
Linked to the very last degree
If I should die then so would he
I never see my friend once blink
Nor twice nor ever, I should think
Though I will see him sometimes wink
But I see him come to the very brink
Of when his eyes will finally blink
Everyone has a friend like mine
Some hate them, some think them fine
Some people love them more than air
Whilst others wish they were not there
Mine will not move without consent
Though I could not make him repent
I like him, though, for when I smile
He smiles back for all the while
Answer: A reflection
MONday’s Quizzler is….
I can be huge.
Or unusually small.
Kids use me daily.
Makes tales that are tall.
I can be real.
Or just a nice dream.
If you just use this thing.
Real – anything could seem.
I could be a monster.
Or an invention of times.
You can use me to think of ideas.
Or plot out huge crimes.
Without me, you’re dull.
Just don’t even try.
I just have one more thing left.
Do you know who am I?
