    You are at a game show and there are three closed doors. There is a prize hidden behind one of the doors and the game show host knows where it is. You are asked to choose a door. The game show host then opens one of the other two doors showing that it is empty and asks you if you would like to change your selection. Should you stick to your original selection?


    You are in a race and you overtake the person who is in second place. What is your position now?

    Six drinking glasses stand in a row, with the first three full of juice and the next three empty. By moving only one glass can you arrange them so empty and full glasses alternate?


    Why did the dinosaur cross the road?
    Chickens didn't exist yet.

    Yo mama so fat when stepped on a scale she said, "How does it know my credit card number?"

    Brunette: "Where were you born?"
    Blonde: "The United States."
    Brunette: "Which part?"
    Blonde: "My whole body."

    A wife comes home late one night and quietly opens the door to her bedroom. From under the blanket, she sees four legs instead of just her husband's two. She reaches for a baseball bat and starts hitting the blanket as hard as she can. Once she's done, she goes to the kitchen to have a drink. As she enters, she sees her husband there, reading a magazine. He says, "Hi darling, your parents have come to visit us, so let them stay in our bedroom. Did you say hello?"

    A blonde walks into a shoe store and tries on a pair of shoes. "How do they feel?" asks the salesclerk. "Well, they feel a bit tight," replies the blonde. The clerk bends down and has a look at the shoes on the blonde's feet. "Try pulling the tongue out," offers the clerk. "Nath, theyth sthill feelth a bith tighth," the blonde replies.

    Why did the blonde pee on the ground?
    Because she saw a sign that said "Wet Floor."

    A woman answered the doorbell with a man standing on her porch. The man said, "I'm terribly sorry. I just ran over your cat and I would like to replace it for you." The woman replied, "Well that's alright with me, but how are you at catching mice?"

    I was at my bank today waiting in a short line. There was just one lady in front of me, an Asian lady, who was trying to exchange yen for dollars. It was obvious she was a little irritated. She asked the teller, "Why it change? Yesterday, I get two hunat dolla of yen. Today I only get hunat eighty? Why it change?" The teller shrugged his shoulders and said, "Fluctuations." The Asian lady says, "Fluc you white people too!"

    What happens to a frog's car when it breaks down?
    It gets toad away.

    I never wanted to believe that my Dad was stealing from his job as a road worker. But when I got home, all the signs were there.

      Mick, I've never attended a business conference that wasn't exactly as you describe. Trying to stay awake and think clearly during daytime presentations with wicked hangovers, ugh! I have great sympathy for those of you still needing to attend them. I do recall one time walking into a closet in search of the bathroom, in full view of co-workers and bosses. Actually closed the door behind me, and stayed in there for about 20 seconds hoping no one would notice. Right!

      I caught a haggis trying to sneak in through the dog door last night. This guy right here. haggis.jpg Had to let him go though, as I wasn't wearing a kilt!

      Have a great Monday everybody!

          Pei...that's the ugliest thing I've ever seen. Think I'd board up the doggy door!!

            how do all
            a quick check in as about to be shoved out the door by the wife. Doing an excursion today, something that happens only once in a blue moon. Raining pretty steadily here, I had more exciting things in mind, such as taxes, well I guess I can hold off for a little longer (BIG SARCASM here). Hope to check in later

              Oh my gosh, Pie - I think I would have fainted!
              Is your rain supposed to turn to snow, Sam? If so, I hope you don't get buried.
              You're sounding upbeat, PPQP. Hope you're feeling better.
              TT, I love having friends that know the future :wink:.

              I failed epically yesterday, Mick, but think I've got 'em today :smile:.

                  Happy Monday at noon

                  Snowing here but not much accumulated yet!
                  The news people oare calling for the blizzard of epic proportions, ha ha!!

                  Grandaughter decided to wake up at 3 am for a half hour 'chat' ~ groan. She'll be going strong all day & I'll be wishing for a granny nap!

                  Pauly, don't isolate yourself, that only makes matters worse. Put your head out in the sunshine if you have any & breathe

                  Greetings Mick, TT, PQ, Sam, NS, narilly & anyone popping in today!
                  Time to figure out what to feed tis child for lunch. Sure won't be scrambled eggs after the mess I created in my microwave this weekend. EGGSPLOSION, ha ha!!!

                  Have a good day everyone!

                    Yes,PQ, I agree. That Mick is definitely a ......

                    Lav and Sam, seen any snow yet? Forecast sounds dire.

                    NS, here are my puzzle guesses. How do you see things?
                    1. Doesn't matter. Odds of getting prize remain at 50/50 if you change your selection, or stick with original.
                    2. Second place
                    3. Move juice glass #1 between empty glasses #5 and #6

                      1. I read about this awhile ago and the reasoning is very complicated (has to do with the host's choice of which door to open not being random) but your odds are better if you switch. (I would have shared your guess if I hadn't remembered the article!)

                      2. Hope we're right!

                      3. Pour the juice in #2 into empty #5, then put empty #2 back.

                      Well, Mick??? Whaddya say?

                      I'm not in the blizzard area so maybe I'm missing something, but minute-to-minute coverage on the news stations concerning upcoming snow (during the winter in a region that typically gets snow in winter) seems a little over the top. It would seem more amazing if it were in July - or Florida! Anyway, I hope any of you that do end up getting a lot of snow are safe and warm. xx

                      EDIT : I just heard about the wind - it does sound like a big deal! Stay safe, east coast friends!
