girls on a bus

There are 7 girls in a bus.
Each girl has 7 backpacks.
In each backpack, there are 7 big cats.
For every big cat there are 7 little cats.
Question: How many legs are there in the bus?
This is a real math problem so don’t say that a bus has no legs. And there is no driver.
The answer will […]

jetpacks

I spent the weekend in Mussandam, Oman last week making jokes about the only way to get to Mall of the Emirates without complete and total aggravation would be by jetpack. We even went so far as to start a company with a board of directors to develop said jetpack and make it all happen. […]

excuse me while I finish up

I have been terrible at this whole “website” thing for some time now. Site launch, travel, finishing up, packing up, etc, has gotten in the way. I promise more frequency and a redesign is coming soon, but for now, here’s the latest news for Chris DiClerico.

she calls it ‘hump island’

My friend Crissy and her friends call it ‘Hump Island’, but I think the idea of this little game is far better than just a fantasy for your sex drive. Here’s how it goes:

frankenstein’s toe

So I showered today. Not quite the ordeal I expected. I cut the ziplock part off a sandwich-sized ziplock bag and taped it around my foot. It worked for a while, but water eventually leaked in. Here’s a picture of the showering rig. Next time I’ll use more tape.

Afterwards, I re-dressed the wound. It was […]

toe flap

Last night, in the middle of the night, after too many drinks and too little adult supervision, I decided I had stewed in the jacuzzi for too long and it was time to call it a night. Some of our motley crew had already passed out and some had gone home. Mike, Crissy, and I […]

Everyone should know by now that you can use a Google search to do math calculations. Simply type an equation into the search box such as “4 * 4″, hit “Google Search”, and the resulting page shows the result: 16.

What I didn’t know, but stumbled on tonight was that Google Suggest in the Firefox toolbar […]

rock paper scissors

I’ve always though about where and how the game Rock Paper Scissors came from. I wish I thought about it enough to write the passage you are about to read.
I got this in an email today, as a attached image (weird). I’ve re-typed it here for your reading pleasure:

I understand how scissors can beat paper, […]

superdaad

A rare gem of an article on the cover of Emirates Today this morning: SUPERDAAD!
A one-legged father-of-78 is preparing for his next two marriages as he closes in on his target of having 100 children by 2015. UAE national Daad Mohammed Murad Abdul Rahman, 60, has already had 15 brides, though he divorces wives to […]

concoction

Instant coffee. Non-dairy creamer. Artificial sweetener.
I feel like I am going to turn into Mr. Hyde if I drink this bubbling concoction. But I am going to drink it, if just to avoid going all the way downstairs and dealing with the moron convention behind the counter of the canteen.
