Wait......I think I figured out the problem. Math used to be awesome. Yeah I came from that crossover era where we had to know Math(s) and be able to solve things. For example: A farmer buys a flock of chickens and keeps them in a barn. So they have something to sit on he puts a frame in the barn with 3 rungs. 3 chickens sit on the bottom rung, 3 sit on the middle rung and another 3 sit on the top rung. How many chickens does the farmer own? point to anyone who gives the right answer I was given. |

However many chickens constitute a "flock". |

No I'm afraid not the "right" answer. Keep guessing. And Infinite, if you lost a finger you would have SEVEN left and TWO opposing thumbs! |

9 seems like it should be the right answer, but I've grown cynical in my math, so that seems too easy. And Infinite, if you lost a finger you would have SEVEN left and TWO opposing thumbs!
HA! |

Your Sith insight serves you well but 9 is the WRONG answer sorry. |

I'm terrible at math, but I'm going to say definitively, that the answer is: "Who gives a flock?" |

No more guesses? Ok, the answer is the farmer only owned the THREE chickens on the bottom rung as the other six were on HIGHER PERCHES (hire purchase   ) I am not kidding this was the answer we were given in the lesson and the teacher told us not to take everything so literally and think about things differently. |

Yeah. So I was right. It's, "Who gives a flock?". I would have spanked that teacher with a ruler and said "and that concludes today's lesson". |

We actually had chalkboards at my school and they had big 3ft long rulers which were around 3 inches wide, we were very tempted to use one of those on the teacher. |

Should have done it. You should have seen some of the stuff I did in school. One time another student was distracting me from my work on purpose, so I threw his desk into the wall. And by into I mean one of the legs punctured the wall. His desk just stuck there on the wall about 5 feet up. I used to set off stink bombs in the cafeteria during breakfast so it would stink for the whole day. I had a teacher actually shove me once because I was questioning what was being taught and got away with giving him a gut shot in return because it was self defense and the whole class saw it. I used to make fun of the vice principle's car and wife to his face. Good times. I chilled out a lot after 5th grade. |

I'm so glad to hear you have calmed down Darth. When I say "we" I meant the class in general, normally I wouldn't contemplate doing anything as drastic as that, I am a Jedi after all. (And I'll take Logos' comment to mean both! ) |
