Wisdom-Trek / Creating a Legacy

Welcome to Day 1267 of our Wisdom-Trek, and thank you for joining me.

This is Guthrie Chamberlain, Your Guide to Wisdom

Two Thanksgiving Funnies – Humor Unplugged

Wisdom – the final frontier to true knowledge. Welcome to Wisdom-Trek where our mission is to create a legacy of wisdom, to seek out discernment and insights, and to boldly grow where few have chosen to grow before.

Hello, my friend, I am Guthrie Chamberlain, your captain on our journey to increase wisdom and create a living legacy. Thank you for joining us today as we explore wisdom on our 2nd millennium of podcasts. This is Day 1267 of our trek, and time for a 3-minute mini-trek called Humor Unplugged. Our Thursday podcast will provide a short and clean funny story to help you lighten up and live a rich and satisfying life.  Something to cheer you and provide a bit a levity in your life.

We are told in Proverbs 15:30, “A cheerful look brings joy to the heart; good news makes for good health.” We are also encouraged in Proverbs 17:22, “A cheerful heart is good medicine, but a broken spirit saps a person’s strength.” Consider this your vitamin supplement of cheer for today. So let’s jump right in with today’s funny which is titled…

Two Thanksgiving Funnies

In honor of Thanksgiving Day in the United States, today we will have two funnies segments.

The first one is:

THANKSGIVING WEATHER FORECAST

Turkeys will thaw in the morning, then warm in the oven to an afternoon high near 190F. The kitchen will turn hot and humid, and if you bother the cook, be ready for a severe squall or cold shoulder.

During the late afternoon and evening, the cold front of a knife will slice through the turkey, causing an accumulation of one to two inches on plates. Mashed potatoes will drift across one side while cranberry sauce creates slippery spots on the other. Please pass the gravy.

A weight watch and indigestion warnings have been issued for the entire area, with increased stuffiness around the beltway. During the evening, the turkey will diminish and taper off to leftovers, dropping to a low of 45F in the refrigerator.

Looking ahead to Friday and Saturday, high pressure to eat sandwiches will be established. Flurries of leftovers can be expected both days with a 50 percent chance of scattered soup late in the day. We expect a warming trend where soup develops. By early next week, eating pressure will be low as the only wish left will be the bone.

Now for the second funny.

8 SIGNS YOU OVERDID IT THIS THANKSGIVING

  1. Paramedics bring in the Jaws of Life to pry you out of the recliner.
  2. You get grass stains on your behind after a walk, but never sat down.
  3. You receive a Sumo Wrestler application in your email.
  4. You set off 3 earthquake seismographs on your morning jog Friday.
  5. Pricking your finger for cholesterol screening only yielded gravy.
  6. You have 5 TV sets side-by-side to catch all the football games.
  7. Representatives from the Butterball Hall of Fame called twice.
  8. Your arms are too short too reach the keyboard & stop this.

I hope that brought a smile to your face today. If it did, pass your smile on to someone else; we all could use a good smile.  Our Thursday thought is “Thanksgiving is great because people tend to speak less when food is lodged in their mouths.”

Psalm 100:4

Enter his gates with thanksgiving; go into his courts with praise. Give thanks to him and praise his name.

I want to thank Mikey’s Funnies for our humor today.
