 SUNDAY FUNDAY

November 24 2024

WARM-UP

We are coming into the Holiday Season! Thanksgiving is this week, as are Hanukkah, Christmas, New Year’s Eve and New Year, and the Winter Solstice. (And others). 

Are you traditional for Thanksgiving? Turkey, dressing, white potatoes and candied yams,  bean casserole, cranberry relish, and pumpkin pie? Hosting a gathering or going out? Fall asleep watching football games?

Thanksgiving jokes:

What’s the best way to fix a pumpkin?

With a pumpkin patch 

Why did the cranberry blush? 

Because it saw the turkey dressing 

What did the Thanksgiving Turkey say to the Christians Ham?

Nice to meat you!!

What’s blue and covered with feathers? 

A turkey holding it’s breath 

What did the farmer wear to the Thanksgiving dinner?

A (har)vest

What is a Pilgrim’s favorite dance? 

The “Turkey Trot”

Why could the turkey join the band?

Because he had his own drumsticks

Logic Problem

Bobbie Wayne collected all kinds of foreign coins and kept them in five Tupperware containers.  One of the containers is slightly heavier than the other four.  Using a balance scale how can he figure out which one is heavier in just two weighings. (He is going to give the heavier one to Orville)

*****

Answer

Put one container on each side of the balance scale- if they balance, put two more on the scale - if they balance the one not weighed is heavier.  

If two containers don’t balance, it is the one that goes down the farthest (heavier).

WRAP UP.

The Bluebonnet Orchestra is having a free concert on Saturday, December 7th, at Glenn High School in Leander and Sunday afternoon at Cedar Park High School (sorry, not in Round Rock or Georgetown this time). 

Love wins
