The worlds first riddle!

Gloria, you're always on the run now
Running after somebody
You gotta get him somehow
I think you've got to slow down
Before you start to blow it
I think you're headed for a breakdown
So be careful not to show it

You really don't remember
Was it something that he said
Are the voices in your head
Calling, Gloria

Gloria, don't you think you're fallin'
If everybody wants you
Why isn't anybody callin'
You don't have to answer
Leave them hangin' on the line
Oh-oh-oh, calling Gloria

Gloria (Gloria)
I think they got your number
(Gloria)
I think they got the alias
(Gloria)
That you've been living under
(Gloria)
But you really don't remember
Was it something that they said
Are the voices in your head
Calling, Gloria

A-ha-ha, a-ha-ha
Gloria, how's it gonna go down
Will you meet him on the main line
Or will you catch him on the rebound
Will you marry for the money
Take a lover in the afternoon
Feel your innocence slippin' away
Don't believe it's comin' back soon

And you really don't remember
Was it something that he said
Are the voices in your head
Calling, Gloria

Gloria, don't you think you're fallin'
If everybody wants you
Why isn't anybody callin'
You don't have to answer
Leave them hangin' on the line
Oh-oh-oh, calling Gloria

Gloria
(Gloria)
I think they got your number
(Gloria)
I think they got the alias
(Gloria)
That you've been living under
(Gloria)
But you really don't remember
Was it something that they said
Are the voices in your head
Calling, Gloria

(Gloria, Gloria, Gloria, Gloria, Gloria)

I see you know your essentials..

Still, I suppose if you have taken the trouble to visit; I should tell you a story about how Mismi and the Professor first met:

Scary - that's my sweet Professor...always focused on the reading and getting of information...misses the nuance of the moment. I like that about him though.

great tale Try. :wink:

moments are nuonce

MENTEERTNAT = ENTERTAINMENT
AORIGL = ORIGINAL

Francis alluded to as much, "That's not original but we could talk about GLORIA..."

Don't you see! It's an anagram.

Cheeky! But nowhere as cute as your tail! :wink:


Slippy set up the curve ball, "moments are nuonce"

Everything was new once; but oh so fleeting!

HONEST INTENTIONS!

Good morning ~all,

Hi Try,,, i'm going to the beach with my sister, Plum Island i believe, hopefully i won't disturb Thee Piping Plovers. I'm going to part the oceans while i'm there,,, (i hope my sister dosen't flip out!)

There is one thing about parting the ocean's that i might mess up on (the fish that are swimming around!)

Hopefully the water won't be to cold for me/we to go in.

I'll be thinking of everyone while i am there,,, especially you!

(i start to dream of being with you~)and fall over (ouch) :wink:



Here'a a picture of our daddy's to help us through the day ~

Well; I am pleased to hear that!


Hi Jove, do have a great day out at the beach with your sister. The water will be mighty cold, but that will only enhance your good points!

Go easy with the parting of the ocean; and remember it wasn't God or Jebus who did that, and it was only a lake after all. Thanks for the pictures, not many riddles threads are so blessed.

"(i start to dream of being with you~)and fall over (ouch)"

I hope you didn't hurt yourself, it's the darn laws of gravity; it is so difficult to make out vertically! Can you dream horizontally?


Slippy simply oozing charm and sophistication, scripted, "Choose your weapons."

Ok! I choose; baby oil, and no holds barred! Let the dream commence…

Hey! I think I have found the Bermuda Triangle:

The angles of the triangle are in the ratio 3:4:5.

If the shortest side has a length of 1 meter, what is the length of the longest side

BERMUDA TRIANGLE
[size=7]sin(75)/sin(45) = 1.3660254[/size]

lines crossed? Yep, that happens and speaking of that....the message I gave thoh to give you contained a hint on the riddle I posted for you to post. The walking down hill riddle.


Hint:involves a bus

Mark:

BERMUDA TRIANGLE
sin(75)/sin(45) = 1.3660254


The answer is (1 + \/3) / 2 meters or approximately 1.36 meters

First, determine the measures of the angles using 3x + 4x + 5x = 180 degrees.
The angles measure 45, 60, and 75 degrees respectively.

(1) You can solve the problem by basic geometry if you draw an altitude from the vertex of the 75 degree angle to the opposite base (the longest side). This altitude divides the original triangle into two smaller triangles (a 45-45-90 triangle and a 30-60-90 triangle). You can now determine the measures of all the sides.

(2) An alternative method is to use the Law of Sines to set up the problem (As Mark did).

Call the length of the short side S and the length of the longest side L.

Then sin(75) / L = sin(45) / S

Since S = 1 meter, sin (75) = .9659258 and sin(45) = .7071,
It follows that L = 1.366 meters.


May I assume this problem defeated the combined knowledge of A2K?

"Mark drove to work at 40 mph and arrived 1 minute late.
The next day, he left at the same time and drove the same distance to work at 45 mph and arrived 1 minute early.
How far did Mark have to drive to work?"

Yeah!!!

Egocentrism over posts: can we communicate as well as we think? Overestimating the obviousness of one's intentions can lead to insufficient allowances for ambiguities in communication. This philosophy may account for the fact that I don't read PM's and therefore oblivious to any clues.

"Hint:involves a bus"

"…there was no car involved…"

Clever; the drop off point for the bus was higher than the pickup point! Or, the other way round?
