WEDNESDAY’s Jokes, Quotes, Quizzlers and Teases!

WELCOME to WEDNESDAY NOVEMBER 11th, 2026

HERE’S THE STORY….
One day in early September the chief of a Native American tribe was asked by his tribal elders if the
winter of 2011/12 was going to be cold or mild. The chief asked his medicine man, but he too had lost
touch with the reading signs from the natural world around the Great Lakes.

In truth, neither of them had idea about how to predict the coming winter. However, the chief decided
to take a modern approach, and the chief rang the National Weather Service in Gaylord Michigan.

Christmas Funny Stories and Jokes
‘Yes, it is going to be a cold winter,’ the meteorological officer told the chief. Consequently, he went
back to his tribe and told the men to collect plenty of firewood.

A fortnight later the chief called the Weather Service and asked for an update. ‘Are you still
forecasting a cold winter?’ he asked.

‘Yes, very cold’, the weather officer told him.

As a result of this brief conversation the chief went back to the tribe and told his
people to collect every bit of wood they could find.

A month later the chief called the National Weather Service once more and asked
about the coming winter. ‘Yes,’ he was told, ‘it is going to be one of the coldest winters ever.’

‘How can you be so sure?’ the chief asked.

The weatherman replied: ‘Because the Native Americans
of the Great Lakes are collecting wood like crazy.’ 😉😂🤣😎

GUARANTED TO MAKE YOU LAFF!
George Gibbs, from Columbus, Ohio, suffered second-degree burns on his head.
This is what happened one freezing cold winter morning. Unable to start his car,
George diagnosed the problem as a frozen fuel line which he thought he could
correct by running warm petrol through it. He then tried to heat a
two-gallon can of petrol on his gas stove in the kitchen. Ah…..😁😂🤣  

TUESDAY’s Movie Trivia of the day!
Although the hugely popular 1962 film “Lawrence of Arabia” is 222 minutes long,
there are no credited speaking roles for women in it.

Answer: The correct answer was True!
How disgraceful is that? Women from the area of the world where the film was shot weren’t allowed to even be photographed, so Christian women dressed in Arab clothing, in the few scenes where women are seen in the background, were used instead. “Lawrence of Arabia” stars Peter O’Toole and a host of other big name (male) stars. This is a movie I really dislike, not because of the gender issue, but because I’ve read the book. Both it and the subsequent movie repelled me. The film portrays the real life story of T.E. Lawrence and his involvement on the Arabian Peninsula during World War I.  Other facts from the shooting of this film include the following: King Hussein of Jordan lent a brigade of his soldiers to the producers to work as extras on the film. Peter O’Toole was almost killed during filming when he was thrown off his camel during the famous charging scene, but the other extras on camels kept right on charging. Fortunately O’Toole’s repentant camel stood over the top of him to protect him. The film took longer to make than it did for the real life events portrayed on the screen to occur.


WEDNESDAYS Movie Trivia of the day!
Why did Paul Newman turn down the role of Judah Ben-Hur in the magnificent 1959 movie “Ben-Hur”?

TUESDAY’s Quizzler….
A traveler who stopped to rest under a nut tree noticed a huge pumpkin growing on a thin vine near by.
“How foolish are the ways of nature,” the traveler muttered. “If things were as they should be, this big,
strong tree would hold the large pumpkins, and the spindly vine would hold the small nuts.
Now if I made the world, that is how I’d have done it!”
If indeed, he had “made the world”, what flaw could there be with such a logical arrangement: big,
strong trees growing big heavy crops, and small vines, small crops?

Answer:  At that moment, from high up in the tree, a small nut fell and hit him squarely on the head. Startled,
he looked up into the branches and thought, “Forgive my arrogance! If it were a big pumpkin that fell out
of the tree onto my head, it most certainly would have killed me!”

WEDNESday’s  Quizzler is….
A Swaffergy is a word that can be broken up into two parts: a different word and a letter of the English Alphabet.

The word “defense” is a common Swaffergy. It can be broken up into the letter “D”, and the word “Fence”. As a Swaffergy, it would be written like this:

D + A structure serving as an enclosure, a barrier, or a boundary, usually made of posts or stakes joined together by boards, wire, or rails.

Which will give you “D-Fence”, or “defense”.

Can you find the answers to the following Swaffergies?

  1. D + Plural of 12 inches
  2. D + A young cow or bull
  3. D + A narrative of real or imaginary events; a story
  4. D + Dispatch
  5. D + French playwright
  6. D + A surface of an object
  7. D + Of superior quality, skill, or appearance
  8. D + A garland of flowers, especially one worn around the neck
  9. D + What a lamp makes
  10. D + A displayed structure bearing lettering or symbols, used to identify or advertise a place of business
