It is better to be living in a waste land, than with a bitter-tongued and angry woman.

A mammal does not have a set number of feet! Humans are mammals, we have two feet...dogs are mammals, they have 4. Assuming that all the mammals have 4 feet and all the birds have 2 feet, the system of 2 equations can be solved...

Etc, "how are you today?"

Well, to be honest, it was pretty rough…

I was out working nights trying to break into a house you see. I'm just sneaking across the lawn when I hear a voice - "Jesus is watching you!" It scared the bejeepers outta me.

I jump, turn around, but don't see anything. So I starts creeping across the lawn again. "Jesus is watching you!" I heard it again. So now I'm really looking around, and I see a parrot in a cage by the side of the house.

I asked the parrot, "Did you say that?" The parrot answers "Yes I did." So I ask, "What's your name?" The parrot says "Clarence." I said "What kind of stupid idiot would name his parrot Clarence?" The parrot laughs and says, "The same stupid idiot that named his Rottweiler 'Jesus' " Shocked …Oh my!



After a fine lunch I got to thinking…

A bottle and drinking glass on the left side of a scale balance with a jug on the right side.

The bottle alone balances the drinking glass and a plate.
Three of these plates balance two of the jugs.

5.....

we have
1) B + G = J
2) B = G + P
3) 3P = 2J

substitute 2 into 1: 2G + P = J or 4G + 2P = 2J (call it 4)
set 3 and 4 equal and u get 3P = 4G + 2P or P = 4G (call it 5)
substitute 5 into 2: B = G + 4G = 5G
