To avoid spoiling it for others.
How does it spoil for others when I can see it? No, not by using quote or getting real close to the computer screen either. I can see it clearly on my screen Confused

The Venn Diagram questions of late have been my favourites, always liable to make me smile.

Thank you CalamityJane Very Happy

I still haven't figured out Try's yet. Sometimes I can figure them out right away and other times it just comes to me out of the blue and other times I don't have a clue what it is.
I forgot to add that sometimes I get a clue from Francis Smile
and as a last resort I try to find it on google. I usually don't find them on the net though. Oh, if I do find it on the net or someone posts the answer I still sometimes don't get it
so I have to ask Try to explain it to me.

Heigh-ho, off to start the day we go. Do you know that the statistics on sanity are that one out of every four Americans is suffering from some form of mental illness.

Think of your three best friends. If they are okay…..then it's you!


Heigh-ho, Heigh-ho
Heigh-ho, Heigh-ho
Heigh-ho

We dig dig dig dig dig dig dig in our mine the whole day through
To dig dig dig dig dig dig dig is what we really like to do
It ain't no trick to get rich quick
If you dig dig dig with a shovel or a pick
In a mine! In a mine! In a mine! In a mine!
Where a million diamonds shine!

We dig dig dig dig dig dig dig from early morn till night
We dig dig dig dig dig dig dig up everything in sight
We dig up diamonds by the score
A thousand rubies, sometimes more
But we don't know what we dig 'em for
We dig dig dig a-dig dig

Heigh-ho, Heigh-ho
Heigh-ho, Heigh-ho
Heigh-ho




Thoh:

SAFRANKTRA = Frank S(in)atra Question


PARTS:
im assuming you meant you pulled 74 parts not 47 parts. if its 74, then no part has all 3 defects because 28+17+13+6+7+3=74 Shocked


You presume to assume a little too much methinks. Laughing


Mark:

PARTS
28+17+13-6-7-3+x=47
x=5 Cool


Yo!



However, something is wrong with these numbers because that would mean -2 have both paint and electronics (but not packaging) defects.


So I re-packaged a few; whatyeah gonna do! Embarrassed


MUST GET HERE = Three Musketeers Cool



Dad Pad:

"Saw the Light on and thought I'd drop in. Is the coffee hot and the toast brown?"

G'day, right ripper mate, park yer bum and have a coldie!


(For the benefit of those of you who have not had the pleasure of meeting DP; he is a great bloke who works well down under.)


Must Get Here = Athos Porthos Aramis Cool

Don't show off mate you'll be asking me who wrote it next!


Enter stage left: Francis, "I was going to talk about Alexandre Dumas..."


Right on que! Razz

That is just so funny; please feature it in HUMOR.

What! Is there a candy bar called; Athos Porthos Aramis?


"I have to ask Try to explain it to me."


Let me tell ya 'bout the birds and the bees
And the flowers and the trees… Laughing



TTH; I hope your dad gets outta that hospital real soon.






bidn bidn
bidn bidn orange

Nice CJ, I was even saying 4 bidn, and still never guessed it! Embarrassed




Epenthesis wrote quite beautifully, "The Venn Diagram questions of late have been my favourites, always liable to make me smile."

Oh you British, living in your castles eating roast beef; a little something to make you laugh:


Can the mean of any two consecutive prime numbers ever be prime Question




For all those who don't live in a castle:





ECNALG Question



ENTURY Question

Hmm. I can't read them. On mine, the background alternates between two very pale shades of blue. The small, white text blends in pretty well.

PRIME MEANS
[size=7]The mean of two numbers lies between the two numbers. If the two primes are consecutive, there are no primes between them (by definition).[/size]

2 shades of blue? I only see 1 shade of blue on my screen Confused
Edit: I wonder if I can take a picture to show you. I am going to try that and I will let you know.

All nudity must be in the best possible taste, and necessary to convey the integrity of the plot.

Sorry, the pictures have to wait.

The hospital just called and they need a health directive and I have 2 brothers and 2 sisters and my mom and I am calling them to try to coordinate things. I have to leave to go to the hospital.

[[size=7]color=white]Primal scream: consecutive primes narrows it down. If 1 were prime then the non-consecutive mean of 1+3 would be the only one. And now a test of visual acuity, what does the bottom line of this chart say? [size=7][size=7][/size]

If non-consecutive primes are allowed, you don't have to assume 1 is prime: 5 = (3+7)/2 is the first example.
