debris4spike: (James - thinky thoughts)
I have extra hours at home today as I was evacuated from part of the hospital - contractors drilled through a gas mains ... and as I was due to chaperone in a clinic this afternoon - a clinic now abandoned, I am here and can spend some serious pc time ... even though I should be ironing!

So, before I do that I thought I would do a meme I snagged from t[livejournal.com profile] teragramm  and [livejournal.com profile] slaymesoftly-

62 Q&A )


~~~~~~

Remembering 9/11 ... for me I still remember with shock the person who told me to go and turn on the TV ... and the image I saw of the burning building, made worse a couple of minutes later by seeing the second plane hit.

May those who died RIP, and those who suffer and mourn find comfort today .... And one day, I pray, that man will learn to live with his fellow man.

Here is a great set of riddles - Have fun!



1. A murderer is condemned to death. He has to choose between three rooms. The first is full of raging fires, the second is full of assassins with loaded guns, and the third is full of lions that haven't eaten in 3 years. Which room is safest for him?


2. A woman shoots her husband. Then she holds him under water for over 5 minutes. Finally, she hangs him. But 5 minutes later they both go out together and enjoy a wonderful dinner together. How can this be?


3. What is black when you buy it, red when you use it, and gray when you throw it away?


4. Can you name three consecutive days without using the words Wednesday, Friday, or Sunday?


5. This is an unusual paragraph. I'm curious as to just how quickly you can find out what is so unusual about it. It looks so ordinary and plain that you would think nothing was wrong with it. In fact, nothing is wrong with it! It is highly unusual though. Study it and think about it, but you still may not find anything odd. But if you work at it a bit, you might find out. Try to do so without any coaching!

Do I now admit I only got 2 of them!!!
