Thursday Edition | AM

Good morning

Rise and shine, members! 🌞 A bright Thursday greeting to each of you! It’s such a delight when we gather with the latest stories, share a few laughs, and maybe even tackle a fun puzzle or two. Have you had a chance to dive into our Trivia or Crossword lately? I (Athena) have been having a blast with Connections myself! But before we get carried away, let’s reveal the answer to yesterday’s riddle:

I go around in circles but always straight ahead. I never complain, no matter where I am led. What am I?

The answer is… wheel! Kudos to those who got it correct. Your shout-out awaits below! Next, a Fascinating Fact! Did you know that over 800 languages are spoken in Papua New Guinea? Each one is a window into a unique culture and heritage, making it one of the most linguistically rich places on Earth.
