Please don't confuse; a small flotilla of Swift Boats (Swifties) , with some RFPFs (Regional Forces and Popular Forces, commonly called Ruff Puffs). Ruff Puffs were altogether different.


I must go distribute food aid to the needy, back in a mo.

Mark:


flatly Cool
meanly Cool


"It's a plane figure," Etc said flatly.
Plane figures are flat.

"Add this list of n numbers and divide the sum by n," said Etc meanly.
The mean of a set of numbers is their sum divided by the number of items.


TTH you are too funny.

ETC you are funny two.




Today started out pretty much like any other day, I went to the park, sat on the bench and was feeding the pidgins when; a girl comes up and starts asking me questions about; Haverhills massachusettes.

I said, there are four things wrong with that question, there is no ?'s' on Haverhill, it is prounced; HAY-VRILL: Massachusetts starts with a capital ?'M' and does not end in ?'es'.

I told her that the Haverhill Deed of Township still survives and shows:

Haverhill was founded in 1640 by twelve English Puritans from Ipswich, MA and Newbury, MA as a frontier settlement. Pentucket was the original name of the settlement -- named for the nearby Native American tribe. Although homes were built and the farm lands were being tended, it was not until two years later in 1642 when the "Haverhill Deed of Township" was finally signed. John Ward, Robert Clements, Tristram Coffin, Hugh Sherratt, William White and Thomas Davis signed for the settlers. Pentucket tribe members Passaquo and SaggaHew, with the consent of Passaconway, signed for the tribe. The settlers purchased the land for 3 pounds and 10 shillings. Haverhill is named after Haverhill, England.

"Enough! History is so in the past already; are you gonna offer me a chocolate" she said, and what I really want to know is…


I saw an advertisement on TV last night which claims that you can dine five nights a week at Haverhill Subway for the rest of your life and not have the same sandwich twice. You know Mark, Rap, Thoh and a whole bunch of people who may be able to tell me:

How many different sandwiches are possible Question


Well sweet cheeks, the Subway website lists seventeen different subs, which can be ordered in one of three ways: (1) as a six-inch sub, (2) as a twelve-inch sub, or (3) as a wrap. There are three additional wraps listed which can only be ordered as wraps.

We will consider each of these to be a different sandwich (a six-inch meatball sub is different from a twelve-inch meatball sub which is different from a meatball wrap).

For the subs, you have a choice of six different types of bread (wheat, white, etc.).

Once you have selected your basic sandwich, then there are thirteen different toppings from which you may choose (cheese, pickles, onions, etc.), but you may select any number of these (or none of them).

Finally, there are nine sauces from which to choose (mustard, mayonaise, vinegar, etc.). Most people probably just choose one of these items, so let's suppose that only one of these is chosen (or you may choose to have none of them).


Please note Mark may have a problem with liner distances so don't be surprised if you get an answer in Tons per Kilo^metre. Laughing



I saw a similar ad on a Metro Train in Washington, DC last summer. It read, "To see everything the Smithsonian has to offer, you'd have to view 4,348 items every day until you were ninety. Luckily, we've extended our hours this summer."

I don't know how they can say that as it would depend on your age at the time of your first visit.

When I go to my local Pita Pit....I like getting the most for my buck....so when they offer 10 sauces...I take a squirt of each.

What does special have to do with anything? Is there something I should know about "swifties"? I just thought it was a made up word. Confused


"Special" was used in the swifty:
"6 is a special number," Tom said perfectly.

Being a (the first) perfect number is what makes six special.

SUBWAY

[size=8]Subs: 17 * 2 * 6 * 2^13 * 10 = 16,711,680
Wraps: (17 + 3) * 2^13 * 10 = 1,638,400
Total = 18,350,080

If you can choose any number of sauces:
Subs: 17 * 2 * 6 * 2^13 * 2^9 = 855,638,016
Wraps: (17 + 3) * 2^13 * 2^9 = 83,886,080
Total = 939,524,096
