Summary

Random Topic

We engaged in a trivia game, Guess the Year! The rules of the game are that we discuss various historical events, and guess which year they all happened. Keith picks a tough one this time, so join in and see if you can guess it before we do.

News of the Week

Terry shared a story about a Chinese man who broke records by throwing playing cards like Chinese stars, slicing through cucumbers, and lighting matches. Jill’s story was about a sheriff in Missouri who found a spider monkey wearing a pink tutu on a busy road. Keith then shared an article about a severe deer problem in one of Missouri’s largest cities, which led to the hiring of sharpshooters and the reliance on hunters to control the deer population.

The odd news items continue, including a man who found a Christmas present from 1978 in his renovated childhood home, an elk rescued in Colorado, and an impatient passenger who exited an Alaskan Airways plane on the wing. Finally, a warning from the Belgian city of Ghent not to eat Christmas trees due to potential pesticide exposure.

Jill’s Weird Words

Jill introduced a game of “weird words,” where the team had to guess the meanings of unusual words. The words included “darg” (daily work), “ingeminate” (to repeat or reiterate a sentence), “anadromous” (fish that migrate upriver to spawn), and “tubable” (things that can be washed in a tub). The team also engaged in light-hearted banter and wordplay throughout the conversation.

Terry’s Top 10 List

Terry shared a top 10 list of the most ridiculous 9-1-1 calls from Saskatchewan, Canada.

Anchor Topic

The team then discussed mobility in the snow, with Keith emphasizing the importance of being cautious and aware of one’s surroundings. He suggested using a cane more like a probe, sidestepping to the curb, and knowing street corners and milestones. Keith also mentioned the possibility of using a guide dog for better navigation. The conversation ended with the decision to focus on living skills in the next meeting.

Email and Final Thoughts

Keith shared a humorous email with an anecdote about a rancher who sold a dead horse to a young man named Jake, who then raffled it off and made a profit. Keith also shared a personal story about a woman whose husband, Bill, who had a habit of farting loudly, caused her to gasp for air and wake up. Let’s just say that she had a creative way to get back at him, and convinced him to see a doctor.

After sharing a voicemail that didn’t make it on the show last week, Keith and Terry shared various jokes and anecdotes, including ones about swimming, socks, and the weatherman.
