Galaxy Nexus Watering Hole

Add my daughter to that list. And add an entire bottle of baby powder to the list of things she has emptied in her room (at least that smells good. Two weeks ago it was the whole container of fish flakes) The day before that she snuck out of the tub and brought her stuffed killer whales and dolphins into the tub for a swim. Smeared an 85 dollar bottle of night cream on all the bathroom surfaces. Poured a brand new bottle of shampoo into the tub, squeezed a tube of diaper rash ointment onto her bed. And this was all in the last two weeks. I'm sure I'm forgetting stuff too.

Oh dear, your daughter is a little monster!! I don't think your wife was very happy when she saw her night cream on the bathroom surface.

Yeah, I was also like that. When I was 2, I shoveled the entire fireplace out into the living room sofa, then created "smoke" signals by pounding my hands onto it. They had to replace all the furniture, and paint the walls to fix it :D

My mom is loving every story about my daughter, because she just says, "It couldn't happen to a better person :rolleyes:

He is the neat one. Doesn't like to get messy or dirty. Super smart, sometimes too smart for his own good ;)

My youngest is the bruiser, he's rough and tumble (I LOVE IT) and the only one who comes to greet me at the door every day when I get home from work. It's about time I got one that favored me, my other two are Momma's all the way.

3 guys walk into a motel. The manager says it will be $30 for one room. So they split it 3 ways...$10 each. They walk away and head for the elevator and go to their room. The manager then realizes that he overcharged them by $5. He hands the bell hop $5 and says to take this back up to the 3 men. On his way up the bell hop can't see how to split it $5 three ways. So he keeps $2 and tells the men they were overcharged by $3 and he gives each one $1.

Before their refund they each paid $10 equaling $30.

Getting $1 back they have now each paid $9 equaling $27.

The bell hop kept $2.

What happened to the last $1?

I like this one, but it can be maddening when you are focused on the $30 they originally paid as being relevant once they got the refund ;)

Yep. Good brain teaser for about 5 seconds. That's why you've got to read things slowly and for detail.

Probably would have been more challenging if I hadn't been studying Calc 3 for the last 12 hours.

I always look at it from the standpoint of the original $30.

Each man has $1 ($1 x 3 = $3).
The bellhop has $2.
The hotel clerk has $25.

$2+$25+$3 = $30

Or, after the $3 refund, they paid $27: $25 to the clerk and $2 to the bellhop.

Nice puzzler, halon. I can tell I am tired: the misdirection caught me for too long. Well, that's my story...

Man, I'm still digging those "Avengers" wallpapers. Thought I'd throw up a screenshot. That clock widget is pretty sweet too. Been tired of BW for a while now. Nice and refreshing.

Dreadnatty,

I am still not able to see the picture... I am really interested in how your setup looks with the wallpaper and clock. Mind re-posting?
