RIddle me this!

Twice ten are six of us,

Six are but three of us.

Nine are but four of us;

What can we possibly be?

Would you know more of us,

Twelve are but six of us,

Five are but four, do you see?

You're giving me another headache, Bernie!

Yesterday's:

There are eight mints. They are all the same size and color. One mint weighs slightly more than the others and it is poisonous. You have a balanced scale and can only use it twice. How can you find the poisoned mint?

Take any six mints and divide them into two groups. Weigh them against each other. If they weigh the same, the poisonous mint is one of the other two and you can weigh them against each other to find the poisonous one.
If one of the two groups of three is heavier than the other, take two of the mints and weigh them against each other. If the weigh the same, the third mint is the poisonous one.

As to LPWH....John, you've got it!

Diane, I think there are probably LEGAL reasons that John keeps such a low profile.....;-)

Good morning to all my fellow riddle groupies!

I HAVE to these days Diane We are just soooo slow at work & IS is constantly giving us more restrictions (firewall filters) every day

One of these days I'm afraid of the worst. I can't even use google to find the answer anymore because 99% of the sites are classified as 'entertainment' sheesh

I hope everyone has a great day!

And moral too!

 

[oldkicker]

Nice to see you on the riddle again, spb....

You've got glasses, Kim? How are you adjusting to them??

Diane - I sure hope that you are feeling better soon.

John - Google is still accessible at work, but there are many sites that they've classified as entertainment too.

Good Morning Riddlers!
Hi Sandy, nice to see you!!

Diane, what bone are they scanning exactly?

Kim, I got those about 4 years ago. I think I'm ready for a new pair, a stronger pair!!

 

[oldkicker]

'Morning, Mickey!

Diane - I know at our work they look for sites that are being accessed by many people, causing traffic on the network. Those are the ones they evaluate and decide whether or not to block.

I'd hazard a guess that John is the only one at his work who comes here on a regular basis, so it hasn't caused much of a blip on their radar....
