petroglyph Member since: Aug 3, 2014 Threads: 25 Posts: 6227 | Good points as well. That is sort of what I was told as a young lad. I was told that the body sensing pain was a signal to let the brain know something was wrong, so it is wired to our survival instinct. It is amazing what the body can endure if it has to. I am surprised by the amount of physical assault [without shock] we can survive and how little bacteria/virus it takes to do us in. The last official act of any government is to loot the treasury.

Nareed Member since: Oct 24, 2012 Threads: 346 Posts: 12545 | How long is ancient history? There is a larger span of time between the building of the first pyramids in Egypt (*) to the birth of Julius Caesar, than from Caesar's days to the present. Think of that when someone tells you history is an unbroken line of incremental progress. (*) Depending on how you reckon it, the first would be either the Step pyramid at Sakkara or the Red Pyramid of Sneferu. Donald Trump is a one-term LOSER |

Face Member since: Oct 24, 2012 Threads: 61 Posts: 3941 | Three men go fishing. As always, they toss all their catches into the well to be split up at the end of the day. The end of the day comes and they all go to bed. The first man wakes up in the night with stomach cramps and needs to go home. He counts the fish to split the pile into 3rds and realizes there is one too many to do so. He tosses one away and takes his third. The second man gets up early and remembers he has an early appt. Not knowing a man has already left, he counts the fish to split them into 3rds and realizes there is one too many to do so. He tosses one away and takes his third. The last man gets up and doesn't realize the other two are gone. He counts the fish to split them into 3rds and realizes there is one too many to do so. He tosses one away and takes his third. What is the least amount of fish caught to enable this to happen? What is this kind of math called? Rate the difficulty 1-5. Be bold and risk defeat, or be cautious and encourage it. |

What sort of fishermen trusts other fisherman, what sort of fisherman throws away fish rather than eating it, what sort of sound sleepers are there that two men can get up and the third doesn't even notice the lack of sleeping bags or the empty bunks? Combine those!! |

Fish-cannot-leave-a-note-math ;) I'll take a wild guess: 42 (knowing it's wrong because 42 is evenly divisible by 3). Donald Trump is a one-term LOSER |
