  3. I used to have a whole sheet of these. I used them in class to keep kids minds busy when they finished their assignments early.

    Wouldn't the answer to #11 be 1? If he combined them, he'd have one big haystack.

  9. Jed, Good stuff.

    KK, My Mother-In-Law pulled that Cemetery (thanks) one on me In Stevens Point. She was VERY old at the time, and we all laughed our asses off. She had NEVER said anything funny before that. It was truly a treat.

  10. Here is a tough one...

    I left my campsite and hiked south for 3 miles. Turned east and hiked for 3 miles. Then turned north and hiked for 3 miles, at which time I came upon a bear inside my tent eating my food!

    What color was the bear?

  11. I don't know what color the bear was... this is why you should not go camping, you got lost and went to somebody else camp and thought the bear was eating your food.
    Go to a hotel on the beach with chaise lounges and flags you can raise up, to have a waitress get you drinks with umbrellas in them and hot wings and Reuben sandwiches.

  12. can't tell what color you're still 3 miles away

    ReplyDelete
  13. oh no, can't tell he is inside your tent

  14. Nope!

    The only place you can hike 3 miles south, then east for 3 miles, then north for 3 miles and end up back at your starting point is the North Pole. There are only polar bears in the north pole, and they are white!

  15. Jed, sounds lovely. You can keep the reubens and the hot wings, but I'll have a couple of those mini umbrella beverages :)
