Saturday night was our banquet for our bowling league. Various monetary prizes for different achievements were awarded. I was very shocked that I received an award, be- cause I had what they call a "sweeper", which means that I scored the highest over my handicap on both lanes on a specific night. My prize wasn't a lot of money, but it was still pretty awesome that I actually won something. As a whole, our team placed 8th out of 15, which was an achieve- ment because at one time we were in last place. After the prizes were distributed, we did a cosmic bowl, which means that all the lights are turned off and different fluorescent lights are turned on to light up the lanes. Then we had to do all sorts of crazy things like bowling between your part- ner's legs and skipping down the lane and throwing with the opposite hand. Each time one person had to throw, and if there were any pins left up, the partner had to pick up the spare. It was a lot of fun. I can't wait til next year! :) Keep those brain waves churning!

Not only because rabbits generally only have 1 head, but because the fractions are 'tending towards infinity'. There will never be two fractions the same, and they will never reach 2. first it takes 1 minute, then 1/2, 1/4, 1/8, 1/16, 1/32, 1/64, 1/128, etc...if you add all them up you'll get something like 1.992, and if you keep going it'll only become something like 1.9999992 ! Jon **** In your answer to the daily tease about the rabbit in the box, you said it would take two minutes for the rabbit to stick it's head out of both ends of the box. Actually, in theory, the rabbit would never stick it's head out of both ends of the box, even without taking into account the fact the rabbit only has one head. If you kept splitting the time in half, you would still end up with an amount of time in beween each event of the rabbit sticking it's head out of the box. so even if it were one billionth of a second, if you were to cut that in half, it would be one two billionth of a second (then one, four billionth of a second, then one, eight billionth of a second...and so on.). So what i'm saying is you can't cut any amount of time in half, and get zero. Nick **** I don't understand your answer of two minutes. Where do you draw the line? 1/8 minute? 1/16th minute? 1/64th minute? 1/128th minute? As i see it there isn't even a theoretical answer to this one. Reverend Swede [Actually, I didn't think there was a possible answer for this puzzle and it was just meant to be a joke. Sorry for the confusion.] **** For that kind of money I'd want something different, a new planet! Sincerely yours Rene [Amen sister! ;)] [Thank you all for writing in. I hope to hear more from all of you in the future! :)] ------------------------------------------------------------ Questions? Comments?
