Apologies and Jokes

Perhaps it was the holiday, or perhaps it was because the server was down, and I did not know it because of the holiday, the website was nonfunctional for several days. My apologies for not seeing it right away, but all is well now.

I do hope that all my U.S. friends and family had a good Thanksgiving. I was laid low with some stomach issues, which didn’t make the holiday feast what it could have been for me, but I did manage the second sliver of pumpkin pie late in the day. Thanksgiving is just not right unless one has two pieces of pie.

We ate all the pumpkin pie, but here is some berry cobbler we can share. Enjoy…

I am still on the mend, and still swamped with moving chores, so I will leave you with a few jokes and be back tomorrow with a book review.

A proud and confident genius makes a bet with an idiot. The genius says, “Hey idiot, every question I ask you that you don’t know the answer, you have to give me $5. And if you ask me a question and I can’t answer yours I will give you $5,000.”

The idiot says, “Okay.”

The genius then asks, “How many continents are there in the world?”

The idiot doesn’t know and hands over the $5. The idiot says, “Now me ask: what animal stands with two legs but sleeps with three?”

The genius tries and searches very hard for the answer but gives up and hands over the $5000. The genius says, “Dang it, I lost. By the way, what was the answer to your question?”

The idiot hands over $5.
