Linda, that's not a brain teaser. It's an IQ test!

Thought for the day:

Beautiful, yorkiemom!

Lindasa, love the brainteaser!

I received this one in my emailbox yesterday:

Check out your lateral thinking power.

Question 2

Question 3

Question 4

1Athena1

Wow, this gets interesting. Will take a stab at number 3 - the OJ glasses:

You take the second glass from left and pour its contents into the fifth glass from left.

Damned if I can figure out the "who done it."

Belinda44

Yep, you got #3 right, Athena.

Momine

Athena, I could only work out the OJ one as well.

1Athena1

Number 1: Because two people out of the six take the same egg?

Momine

Siamese twins?

River_Rat

They take the egg along with the basket?

Belinda44

Ok.....below are the answers.......

ANSWERS


* 1. The last person took the basket with the egg in it.


* 2. All the other card players were women.


* 3. Pour the juice from the second glass into the fifth.


* 4. The recluse lived in a lighthouse.

#2 ... the other card players are women

#3 ... no ... you can't

ETA ... and Belinda posted answers.  Can you pass a test with only 25%

Momine

Gah! Duh!

1Athena1

I could see several possible answers for one and four. Number two - but of course! Smacking paw to head!

Belinda44

Wabbit, I'll give you an A for effort

Dear Antonin Scalia,

suzieq60

Glad you all like the photos - I'll find some spectacular ones without me in them today and post them. I still prefer the North Island though. It was a pity I didn't do all of the ride but absolutely nothing could have prepared me for that awful track. Every time I see gravel now I flinch. I even had a nightmare about it one night after the bike thing.

We are having monsoonal rains here - poor Poppy can't go outside and is very annoyed. We had zero rain while in NZ - they seem to be having a drought. Hopefully some of our rain will go over there. The bad news is I can't do all of the washing and get it dry - I don't like to put everything in the dryer.

Sweet Poppy slept on our bed all night - must be glad to have us home and be freed from the vets.

Went to be at 8pm and managed to sleep until 5:45am - because of the time difference we had been up since 1:30am Aus time.

BTW I did manage the winery tour by bike - only 24 kms and there were incentives at the next winery

Trying to catch up. The Woodward thing is made crazier by the fact that the very people who hated him for exposing Nixon and Watergate now procalim him as a hero and want him to somehow bring down Obama.

And, according to something I read in the paper (NYTimes?) Obama DID have the jedi thing right. He's more of a geek than the average geek.

Suz, gorgeous pics!! Thanks for sharing.

This cat-only household of mine is dog-sitting this weekend for a dear friend who was in a bind. So now one cat has hi-tailed it to the basement, hiding under the bed, not to be seen till the dog leaves. The little, fiesty kitty (this is HER house and she has to be around her peeps) has jumped to the top of the kitchen cabinets to watch this big German shepard and torment her with her (the cat's) presence. Could be a long weekend...

Momine

Belinda, now that is WEIRD! I did not know that about femara. Of course, we ripped out my ovaries so I could go on it, so since you can't wake the dead ... 

IllinoisLady

Blue....I love the BRAINS. 

Anne you are so right -- I get a bit amused to hear anyone talk of bringing Obama down --  why would they want him at their level. 

That said.....their will be the great Mitt & Ann.  First great interview since the LOSS and Fox News scooped it.  That seems to be a person brought down....perhaps I will watch.

Hmmm, watching this Florida news.  "Jeb Bush was consumed by the sink hole."  Interesting.... 

Love all of the photos - NZ too.  Looks less green than I remember it when I was there in April (another decade) Suzie. 

suzieq60

Been to the markets - quite a lot less stalls due to the rain. Got my fish, fudge and bananas though.

Here are some pics - probably too many, so I'll do it over several posts.

I won't comment on every one - but this one shows the trail we rode. Bloody gravel and this was a good part of the track.

suzieq60

Kam - I was quite disappointed at first - we were in Central Otago at first, which gets little rain.
