Subject: RE: very very bored off-topic rambilngs From: kendall Date: 16 May 01 - 11:08 AM Bill D I think the answer is...The same length of time it would take a hen to build enough pressure to shit through a two inch plank. |

Subject: RE: very very bored off-topic rambilngs From: Bill D Date: 16 May 01 - 11:23 AM is the line about 'not getting into the habit' a nun-sequitor? |

I seem to recall some photos of nuns doin' some non-sequiturin'.............I don't think I can post them here even though as I recall, you had something to do with at least one of them!

Subject: RE: very very bored off-topic rambilngs From: Big Mick Date: 16 May 01 - 11:43 AM OK Lyndi-Loo, I am going to let you get away with that because you are a female. So that is not exactly the same classification as Bill D, hence not a violation of the contract. So you can be one sick woman. I like that in a woman, too....................LOL. Mick |

Subject: RE: very very bored off-topic rambilngs From: Dave the Gnome Date: 16 May 01 - 04:46 PM As I was going to St Ives I met a man with seven wives. Each wife had seven sacks. Each sack had seven cats. Each cat had seven kits. Sacks, kits, cats and wives how many were going to St Ives? If it takes two men a month to work a fortnight how many bananas in a bunch of grapes? I've been dying to post those two but, until now, no-one has started a thread daft enough! Thanks Emily-O (Emilio? Are you Puerto Rican?) Cheers Dave the Gnome |

Subject: RE: very very bored off-topic rambilngs From: Little Hawk Date: 16 May 01 - 05:04 PM Dave, I am no math whiz, but I think the answers are: 1. 2,800 2. none |
|
Subject: RE: very very bored off-topic rambilngs From: Dave the Gnome Date: 16 May 01 - 05:14 PM Wrong on both counts LH - sorry but no prize today! I will have to keep you in suspenders though in case anyone else wants a go. Keep trying *BG* Dave the Gnome |
|
Subject: RE: very very bored off-topic rambilngs From: GUEST,Karen Date: 16 May 01 - 05:19 PM Well, the Saint Ives answer is one but I've never heard the second riddle. Is it a real riddle or did you just make it up? |
|
Subject: RE: very very bored off-topic rambilngs From: MMario Date: 16 May 01 - 05:25 PM 1 GOING to St. Ives. and for the second 1/4rth? |
|
Subject: RE: very very bored off-topic rambilngs From: Dave the Gnome Date: 16 May 01 - 05:29 PM Humph... Mmario got it in one. How did you know it took one of the men to drive the steam engine? Of course it's real Karen - sureal! Cheers DtG |
|
Subject: RE: very very bored off-topic rambilngs From: The Walrus Date: 16 May 01 - 05:41 PM DtG The answer to your second riddle is simple, it's a fish this colour. Walrus. |
|
Subject: RE: very very bored off-topic rambilngs From: Little Hawk Date: 16 May 01 - 05:47 PM Ah, I see...one was going to St. Ives. I get it now. Should've known... - LH |

Subject: RE: very very bored off-topic rambilngs From: GUEST,Karen Date: 16 May 01 - 05:57 PM Oh, Little Hawk. How very sad for you! Okay, here's one I know you can do: Tommy Tucker took two strings and tied two turtles to two tall trees. How many T's in that? |

Subject: RE: very very bored off-topic rambilngs From: Dave the Gnome Date: 16 May 01 - 06:48 PM 2 of course, Karen! Doesn't really work written but try saying to someone "Constantinople is a very long word. Spell it" Also there is no way of writing "there are three ways of spelling two" - doesn't make sense whichever spelling you use. Eeeehhhh. Takes me back to school days...:-) Cheers DtG |
|
Subject: RE: very very bored off-topic rambilngs From: GUEST,Karen Date: 16 May 01 - 06:53 PM Ssssh! DtG, I KNOW it's an easy one. I'm trying to make Little Hawk feel better for not knowing the old St. Ives riddle. Play along!!!! |

Subject: RE: very very bored off-topic rambilngs From: SINSULL Date: 16 May 01 - 07:21 PM 2 "t"s in "that" And everyone knew the "St. Ives' answer because it played a bit part in a Bruce what's his name movie. |

|
Subject: RE: very very bored off-topic rambilngs From: MMario Date: 17 May 01 - 12:25 PM I do believe bruce what'shisname is younger then I am - and I learned the answer to St. Ives before I entered grammer school!!!! whyfor you putting down my mastery of trivia, sinsull? |
|
Subject: RE: very very bored off-topic rambilngs From: mousethief Date: 17 May 01 - 12:32 PM The point of the St. Ives riddle, of course, is that "I met a man" used to mean we were going in opposite directions. Otherwise you'd have to say "I overtook a man" or "I was overtaken by a man." Nowadays we don't use the word "met" nearly so carefully, so the riddle kind of loses its point as a teacher of grammar. It's still fun though.

Subject: RE: very very bored off-topic rambilngs From: Robby Date: 17 May 01 - 01:19 PM One, two buckle my shoe, Have none of us anything else to do? In the nature of "picky, picky,picky", shouldn't "served between Clevelands" be "served between Cleveland's"? After all there was only one US President named Cleveland, even if he is counted as the 22nd and 24th Presidents. Robby |

Subject: RE: very very bored off-topic rambilngs From: kendall Date: 17 May 01 - 01:56 PM My youngest daughter solved the riddle of St. Ives when she was 6. What is this? The rich don't want it, The poor don't need it, It is more evil than Satan It is stronger than God. If you eat it, you will die. |

Subject: RE: very very bored off-topic rambilngs From: Pseudolus Date: 17 May 01 - 02:01 PM Take the number 40 and divide it by 1/2, then add 10 and divde by 3......what do you get? Frank |
