How, may I ask did you come to that conclusion?

Thanks, thanks, thanks, thanks, thanks = thanks a lot Cool

Not bad for a genius! Razz


Etc is not left handed; strange indeed. As for writing; not as much as I look forward to who's next for hell.

What! No music. I will re-play: Candles in the Rain…

Please clarify Do I pick n, or does the expression have to work for any n, or do you want expressions for n equals 0 through 9?

EIGHT Ns

Do you want something like this:

(n+n+n+n)! / (n+n+n+n)! + 999 = 1000 (works for 0 <= n <= 9)

or something like this:

2^[2*(2+2+2/2)] - (2^2)!

or something else?

Laughing Laughing Laughing I used the #s from my car Laughing Laughing Laughing (617) 6+7=13 & -1 = 12 Laughing Laughing Laughing In WA we have Lotto, Quinto, Megamillions and a few more. I hardly ever buy a ticket. Someone talked me into buying a ticket for Quinto and I didn't know how to play. So, I used the numbers from my car (617) and played where they can be drawn in any order. Well, the #'s drawn for that day were 167 Laughing Laughing Laughing So, if in doubt, I use the #'s from my car Laughing Laughing Laughing

Maybe Mark was sleeping with the (female) boss.

Or maybe Mark's advice generated more income (correct on big gains, incorrect on small losses vs. correct on small gains, incorrect on big losses).

I thought you might like to see some reviews of my new book:

- By helping hands


"Thank you for sending me a copy of your book; I'll waste no time reading it.""

He has never been known to use a word that might send a reader to the dictionary."

"He can compress the most words into the smallest idea of any man I know."

As Groucho was fond of saying: I've had a perfectly wonderful day….. But this wasn't it. Laughing




Mark:

PENNY PYRAMID (you thought I overlooked this, huh?) Twisted Evil
I get 1683. Cool Cool Cool Shocked Drunk

Jebus H Crisp: I get; 100*50/2 = 2500 moves!!! Mr. Green Are you sure?


PLAY stop = Big play by the shortstop Cool


"Maybe Mark was sleeping with the (female) boss."

Dream on buster…. Rolling Eyes


"Please clarify Do I pick n, or does the expression have to work for any n, or do you want expressions for n equals 0 through 9?"


(There will be different ways to get 1000, but something like: (5*8/4)(3+7)*(? ? ?)= 1000)


Solipsister interjected, "try one to nine excluding six" Cool

Solipsism is such an interesting concept; I can't believe you've never heard of it before. I mean, the whole idea that A2K is the center of the universe and every single person, place or thing is there just for your benefit, all figments of your imagination . . . it's fascinating, yeah?

I would suggest you cut back on your post schedule before you develop Repetitive Strain Syndrome. No, seriously: Both Mark and I love to play darts Razz


Ksanfo posted:

the leader keep - Keep following the leader?

right
brother - right on brother?

Anyone any other ideas?


Another good song choice, and one I have not heard before.


TTH - Classic!

"How, may I ask did you come to that conclusion?"

I used the #s from my car (617) 6+7=13 & -1 = 12 In WA we have Lotto, Quinto, Megamillions and a few more. I hardly ever buy a ticket. Someone talked me into buying a ticket for Quinto and I didn't know how to play. So, I used the numbers from my car (617) and played where they can be drawn in any order. Well, the #'s drawn for that day were 167 So, if in doubt, I use the #'s from my car.


That has to be the greatest answer ever. If only Einstein had been around to see it. It is so hilarious, I need medical attention!

Nice picture Etc; who is it?




TTH and Thoh bought three horses of equal values for $840. TTH contributed $450 and Thoh contributed $390. By the end of the day, they had sold one horse to a passerby for $840, and decided to end their partnership. Sad

How should they divide the cash fairly if Thoh keeps the two horses Question
