Watch for the punch line.

It's pretty scary.

In a Purdue University classroom, they were discussing
the qualifications to be President of the United States.
It was pretty simple.  The candidate must be a natural
born citizen of at least 35 years of age.

However, one girl in the class immediately started in
on how unfair it was of the requirement to be a natural
born citizen.  In short, her opinion was that this
requirement prevented many capable individuals
from becoming president.

The class was taking it in and her rant,
and many jaws hit the floor when she wrapped up her
argument by stating, "What makes a natural born
citizen any more qualified to lead this country
than one born by C-section?"  OOPS!

Enough said.

Once Upon A Time

A group of people were having lunch together.........

Between 2,200 and 2,600 guests were invited to have lunch with the president.

The organizer decided to arrange the seating so that each table would accommodate an equal number of guests, and the number of guests at each table would be an odd number.

The organizer determined that the following arrangements would not work :

3 guests per table
(2 people would be left without seating)

5 guests per table
(4 people would be left out)

7 guests per table
(6 people would be left out)

9 guests per table
(8 people would be left out)

When he tried seating 11 guests per table,
EVERYONE had a place to sit.

How many people were invited to dine with the president?




---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Answer :  2519 guests were invited.  11 guests at 229 tables.

Gee whiz, take my Christmas movie quiz

Christmas cheer doesn't always come to the party stag.  Sometimes, it arrives with a companion:
Christmas tears.
When the grateful citizens of Bedford Falls rush to George Bailey's rescue at the end of the holiday classic, "It's a Wonderful Life," guardian angel Clarence finally gets his wings, and I get the sniffles.
When Linus quotes from the second chapter of the Gospel according to Luke to explain to bemused Charlie Brown what Christmas is all about, the lump in my throat isn't from an oversized piece of bad fruit cake.
And that song, "The Christmas Shoes," is onions to the eyes.  You know the one : A young boy wants to buy his dying mother a new pair of shoes so she'll look presentable when she meets Jesus, but doesn't have enough money.  I suspect Kleenex owns the song's copyright.
You either don't tune in or load up on the tissues. Those are the easy answers.
As for easy answers in the annual and much anticipated Gianficaro Christmas Quiz, that depends on how intently or not you pay attention during the Christmas season.  For example, everyone knows childlike friends George and Mary reconnect at the high school graduation dance in the gymnasium.  But do you remember the name of the high school principal who greeted George there?
If you know it was Mr. Partridge, pluck a ripe one off the pear tree and celebrate.
So, here's the quiz.  There are only a few layups here, so bring your A-game, and Merry Christmas.

1. What's the title of the song often called "Chestnuts Roasting on an Open Fire"?
a) "A Christmas Song."
b) " The Christmas Song."
c) "Baby, It's Cold Outside."
d) "Santa's On His Way."
2. What's the name of the rabbit in the magic hat in the animated TV classic, "Frosty the Snowman"?
a) Hocus Pocus
b) Thumper
c) Snowball
d) Spirit
3. In "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer," what was Rudolph's father's name?
a) Buck
b) Big Rudy
c) Vixen
d) Donner
4. In "It's a Wonderful Life," which book did guardian angel Clarence autograph for George Bailey?
a) "Friends are forever"
b) "Potter is a Poo"
c) "The Adventures of Tom Sawyer"
d) "Fifty Shades of Gray"
5. In which movie did the song, "White Christmas," initially play?
a) "White Christmas"
