8/17/08 Captain Jack's Repossession Repo Cruise to PC thru TPC Part 10

[pyramid2000]

Last night DH was tearing out a partial wall, so we let the girls smash it with a hammer. They had a ball. I'll post some pics if I get to it today. DD 4 was hitting it and said "Look, a Mickeyhead!" at a hole she made.

What's up with JoJo? He has woken me again to go out! I'm still sleeping in today. Later.

Morning everyone

Happy Weekend to All.

A sign of spring happened yesterday to me. I got my Annual Pass to Busch Gardens, Williamsburg,VA and next Saturday St. Patrick's Day is preview day for all annual passholders. I hope the weather is good. Today it is supposed to be in the 60's here.

Been up early to walk my puppies, a shi tzu and a yorkie. I had to wake them up, they were snuggled under the down comforter. Went for their morning walk and now both are now sleeping. In my next life I want to come back as one of them. They are my babies as I have no kids.
I have to ask on how do you get into the chat room that you guys have? Is it by invitation only or can anyone join in?
To everyone who has a birthday today
to all newbies.

Have a good day everyone!!!

[kap158]

Hi Moira,

Doreen has been busy with getting her daughter Jaclyn ready for college. Her son Daniel is earning his boy scout badges heading for Eagle Scout. I am so glad that you will be coming on this cruise.

I still love my Bailey's. Can I order in bulk!!!!

Good Morning. Now that I am caught up again, I forgot to wish everyone a Happy Birthday to everyone that had/was having one. Hope everyone enjoyed their days



Also to all newcomers

I'll be around on and off today. DH had to go to work this morning to try to get a church some water, he was working until 10:00p.m. last night.

I need to make another cup of tea.

Evening Everyone!

It is so nice to see my baby sister on the boards (Reenieny18)

I am good at a lot of TV and movie trivia, just ask my sister!

T.V. Movies and Music for me.

 

[bellelinus]

Congrats!

I would think somewhere in the cove cafe. I think the workers there pretty much stay in that area and you could let them know what you are doing. Maybe taped in the inside in the library there.

Thanks, Paula! And that's a good idea . . . Andrew, are you on this morning (afternoon?) . . .

I tried like the dickens to get on last night, but I kept getting "kicked off". Really p***ed me off.

Has anybody ever heard of a game called "Chronolgy"? Everybody picks 2 cards to establish a timeline, then you takes turns picking up a card that has an event question on it (.e. the year that panty hose was invented)the person has to guess where in their time line this took place, if they get it right, they get the card, if not,the next person gets a try. It's easy at the beginning but as you accumulate more cards, your timelines get a bit smaller.
When you start out you'll get a timeline of say,2300 BC to 1968, but as you add more cards, the you might have 1777,1779 and 1782 you say the event happened between 1779 and 1782 but the card is actually 1778, it passes to the next guy. The object to get 10 cards.

66,729


Wait, have to add those odd outside ones... 66,846

I think your answer is a little low. You got me to relook at my answer, however, and I think I was a little high. I treated it as 2 puzzles and added together, but that would duplicate many squares.

I think in addition to the outer squares, you need to look at the 2x2, 3x3, etc. starting with the squares not in the outer corners (i.e. cell Row 1, Column 2) and then you need to move over or down from there.

My new method, let me know if I double counted again, would be to do the smaller square puzzle, yielding 66,729, and then adding 29x4, 28x4, 27x4, etc down to 1x4 and then adding 1 for the full outside square. The ?x4 is because you would have 4 sides with different starting points for the 2x2, 3x3 and so on larger squares. The reason you don't square it is because you would double count inner squares of that size.

Doing this I come up with 68,470.

 

[Enna]

I'm back. I have a word problem for you.

If you walk around all day sucking in your stomach, does that equal about 100 crunches??

I would say no. I've tried. It's just not the same.

No, that is just the way it copied.

Yea, me too Karen.................

Finished the bill paying just as my brother Pete (from Jacksonville, FL) came knocking at our front door. Pete came up for his best friend's mother's funeral. Big brother to the resuce, Pete forgot his black shoes and black socks, good thing we wear the same size shoes................

This afternoon we have to take Angelina to the mall, she needs some "new" summer shorts for our trip the end of the month.

My brother Rob called Thursday night and said he has a used computer for my mom, he will be dropping it off at our house this week so we can take it to her. I know at least one thing I'll be doing while I'm there, setting up the for my mom....................


Speaking of my mom, she just called, got to see what she is calling for.

My mom drove her cousin Ruth up to South Carolina yesterday so Ruth could see her daughter, my mom wanted to check her e-mail messages but was having trouble signing in, it's been so long since she has gotten on a computer she forgot how to sign in.............. It's a good thing I set up her account, since I know her user name and password I was able to help her sign in........what a morning around here.................


I freaked Hazel out as well this morning............I started setting "some" of our clocks ahead already, she didn't know what time it was when she got up and came out into the livingroom................

Hi, Andrew! Are you still on? I had to go walk my dogs . . . (yes, Belle and Linus).
