So that was you behind the popcorn, oh what fun we had; you are Edna May (or may not in my case) aren't you? Laughing


Yes Try that was me. I'm surprised you remembered after all this time. Those were the days.... Embarrassed You haven't changed much at all. Are those bifocals you are wearing now? Don't worry nobody would ever guess that isn't your real hair anymore. Laughing Laughing

Are you kidding, that was my first time! Now I come to think of it; my last as well! I should have known being a monk was the wrong career path. Sad


"Are those bifocals you are wearing now?"

Nah, they are glasses. Laughing


"Don't worry nobody would ever guess that isn't your real hair anymore."

You know what they say; hair today gone tomorrow. Shocked Arrow

I see we have chosen similar career paths. I live the life of a nun.

Some people believe that January 1, 2000 is the first day of the 21st century. Other people believe that the honor belongs to January 1, 2001. But everyone should agree that January 1, 2002 is the first "sum-day" of the new century.

When you write out that date in standard notation, it becomes 01/01/02, and 1+1=2. More generally, a sum-day is a date in which the day and month add up to the year. With that in mind:

A) What is the last sum-day of the 21st century Question

B) How many sum-days are there in the 21st century Question

SUM-DAYS
[size=8]A. The last sum day in any century is 12/31/43.
B. Since the sum never exceeds 99, there is a sum-day for each day of the year except leap day since 2+29=31, which is not a leap year.

Hi everyone,,, i wondered if The Lord Thy God could Flog people under water and the answer is yes Laughing

Complaining and lying as well as vanity and conceit is against God's law! Laughing

p.s. Asking for help is a form of complaining,,, so say's we.

Mentioning the word 'God' is against our law. Laughing

I sat in on one of the workshops yesterday and recorded the following:

Moderator: "How many attendees believe in ghosts?" (Over 80% of the hands were raised)

Moderator: "How many have actually seen a ghost?" (58% of the hands were raised)

Moderator: "How many believe that a ghost can be solid?" (23% of the hands were raised)

Moderator: "How many have ever physically touched a ghost?" (3% of the hands were raised)

Moderator: "How many have ever had sex with a ghost?" (After some pause one lonely hand at the back of the hall went up)

Moderator: "May I ask where you are from, sir?"

Attendee: "I am from Southern CA."

Moderator: "And you say you've had sex with a ghost?"

Attendee: "Oh sorry! I thought you said "goat." Shocked


Asked to comment Mark said, " Baaaaaa!"


Etc wondered, "if The Lord Thy God could Flog people under water?"

I was wondering the same thing whilst contemplating a gill transplant. Can you confirm how you know he can?

"Complaining and lying as well as vanity and conceit is against God's law! "

Sugar! That's my best four characteristics outta the window. Can you please help me cleanse my sins?

"p.s. Asking for help is a form of complaining"

Oh God! Will this never end?

"Mentioning the word 'God' is against our law."


Halleluiah!



A while back I posted this puzzle with the name ?'TTH' unfortunately no one volunteered to take the cakes; probably fearing she already had a bun in the oven! Laughing

I tryagain with an entirely different version:


You are on your way to visit ETC, who lives at the end of Sanity. It's her birthday, and you want to give her the cakes you've made.

Between your house and her house, you have to cross 7 bridges, and as it goes in the land of make believe, there is a troll under every bridge! Each troll, quite rightly, insists that you pay a troll toll. Before you can cross their bridge, you have to give them half of the cakes you are carrying, but as they are kind Try type trolls, they each give you back a single cake.


How many cakes do you have to leave home with to make sure that you arrive at Etc's mansion with exactly 2 cakes Question

2 cakes.... at the first bridge you give up half the cakes (1) and are left with 1. the troll then gives you back 1 cake so you again have two and you move on. it doesnt matter how many bridges there are.

2 because if they each give you back 1 then you will have 2 all the time as long as they are chocolate Laughing

etc I still don't understand you. You said you think I know what you are talking about and I don't.

I once saw someone (I will leave the member's name out) post something like - I was as dumb as dirt. Actually I found it amusing thinking - now how can dirt be dumb? I have heard that saying before btw so I don't take the sentence literally.

I think she was talking about:

A group of Riddlers who were given the assignment to measure the height of a flagpole. So they go out to the flagpole with ladders and tape measures, and they're falling off the ladders, dropping the tape measures - the whole thing is just a mess.

TTH comes along and sees what they're trying to do, walks over, pulls the flagpole out of the ground, lays it flat, measures it from end to end, gives the measurement to Try and walks away.

After she had gone, Try turns to Thoh and laughs. "Isn't that just like TTH! We're looking for the height and she gives us the length!" Laughing Laughing Laughing


It was my fault; I misread ?'Flog people' as Flag pole. Embarrassed
