    Dare Devil Morris
    Morris is a gambler. One day he bets his friend £1,000 that he can jump from a 13 storey building onto the concrete street below without hurting himself. he thinks Morris is off his head and accepts the bet.
    The question is:
    HOW DID MORRIS WIN THE £1,000?

    Sidney the fisherman
    Sidney loves to fish. He finds it very relaxing and uses an expensive gold plated fishing rod. One day, he is fishing off the side of a barge moored against the bank of the Thames. The hook on the end of Sidney’s fishing line is 50cm below the surface of the Thames. The tide is rising at the rate of 30cm per hour.
    The question is:
    HOW FAR BELOW THE WATER LEVEL WILL THE HOOK BE AFTER SIDNEY HAS BEEN FISHING FOR 3 HOURS?

    Johns punishment
    John was a naughty teenager and was always getting himself into trouble at school. One week he was so bad that as a punishment he was asked to carry 100 bags of sand from the store room to the long jump pit. He found it a great struggle and after he had taken the first few bags to the pit, he soon realised that he could put something in each bag to make it lighter to carry.
    The question is:
    WHAT DID HE PUT INTO EACH BAG?

    Bath night at Janes
    Jane is looking at two tubs. One contains water at 20 degrees Fahrenheit and the other tub contains water at 20 degrees Centigrade. she has a special dog called Benjy and Jane is a bit confused.
    The question is:
    WHICH TUB DOES SHE EVENTUALLY CHOOSE TO GIVE BENJY HIS WEEKLY BATH?

    I was at a job interview today.

    The interviewer said to me, "On your CV, it says that you are a man of mystery."

    I said, "That's correct."

    He said, "Would you like to elaborate?"

    I said, "No."

    Today I did that thing where you walk into a room and totally forgot what you went in for.

    Neither the vicar nor the congregation were impressed.

    Burglars have become very clever recently. Just last night my wife turned to me in the middle of the night and said "Wake up! There's somebody downstairs!" So I got out of bed and quietly checked every room.

    Suddenly I realized that I don't have a wife.

    "I'm confident, bold, and I am not afraid to take risks, " I told the interviewer.

    "That may be the case, but would you please get out of my chair and wait outside with the other applicants until your name is called, " he replied.

    I've got a part time job for a company making rubberised computer keyboards.

    They offer flexible shifts.

    "An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth"

    Sometimes that's not always possible on the Jeremy Kyle show

    I'm not saying my wife has bad teeth, but when she smiles, it looks like her tongue is in jail.

    BBC News : Burglars jailed for lecturer attack.

    Lets hope that's been a lesson to them.

    ..and talking of adverts ..this one is doing the rounds on telly here...

      Good morning Abbers on this last day of January - yay!

      Sunny & 12 degrees F here - that's cold!!!!
      Another snowstorm due to roll in late tomorrow afternoon.

      Greetings Mick!
      I don't envy you having to medicate a bunny rabbit. My big dog gets 3 supplements 2X/day. I just spread a layer of peanut butter in a cracker, push the pills in, top it with another cracker & just hand her the whole thing. She practically swallows it whole, ha ha!!! I don't know exactly how my day is going to unfold but I'm pretty sure I will be helping my daughter with the last of her moving stuff. She needs to clean out the rental today & return the keys to the nasty old landlady

      Greetings Eloise, PQ, SL, Sam, Pie, NS, Pauly & Det & anyone else stopping by today.
      It's almost 9 am & I haven't checked on my feathered friends yet - better go do that

      Have a wonderful AF day everyone!

        morning all
        February almost here, a month that always makes me think of a person I knew born on the 29. What a strange thing to have your birthday disappear for severals years! Anyone here born on the Feb 29?

        Nice cold sunny day here, I swear the birds were out there making noise like it is spring and it is 20º (F) . Guess we'll just have to see what the ol groundhog has to say about.(groundhog day.... one of my favorite movies!)

        Thanks for the kick start Mick, I'm ready for coffee brew 2. Been putting in job apps lately. The questions asked make me realize how lucky I've been working for myself, but when there's no work, there's no work so.... onward...

        How do Lav, snow coming your way tomorrow, for us it looks like rain. Think I'll get a little firewood stacked on the porch.

        How you doing Eloise, wearing out those wooden shoes yet?

        Be well, and enjoy your day everyone!

          Morning Everyone!
          Yes, we got a big dumpa snow. Looks beautiful out.

          Grateful to be Un Hung this am.

            Thanks, Mick, I'm feeling pretty good about myself today :smile:. I think I know 3 and might even have the fourth!! You certainly give me a reason to log on every morning to check how my brain is doing. I know that back in the day, these brain teasers would have just pissed me off and I wouldn't have even tried even though as I kid, I just loved to do them. My 6th grade teacher put one on the chalkboard each day (which is why I've known a couple of the answers to yours - they were familiar :wink:!).

            Lav, I think we're getting the snow tonight so I'm going to try to get out and enjoy the sun today. PB is the vehicle I use to medicate our dogs, also. If they won't take PB, I know they are really sick!

            Sam, I used to wish my birthday were on 29 Feb - it just seemed like it would be such a cool thing!

            I heard that there is a super-bowl ad where they make fun of people who eat gluten-free, saying they are whiny and weak. People with celiac disease are so distressed about this, there is an online petition to make them take the line out b/f the commercial is broadcast tomorrow. I hope whoever is doing the ad does take it out - especially for the sake of little kids who wouldn't get the "joke" at all and who already feel weird because they can't eat the same things as all their peers. Thankfully, I don't care what anyone else thinks about my dietary choices/needs but it reminds me how people who don't drink are sometimes made to feel like they are uptight and boring.

            Well, have a great day/night abbers! xx, NS

            We sure xpost alot, Nar! Hi :hug:.

              Saturday Greeting, Abbers! I'm battling a wicked head cold here, so just a quick flyby. I'll be back when I'm not so germy.

              Y'all take care.

                Quick pop in too - medicating bunny does not sound like fun! Sunday morning here and not sure what I will do as the weather is a bit strange.
                Good to see you Det although that driving sounds crazy/
                Hope you get better soon Pie - and hello there to all others.
