How'd you do?
**While there was only one commenter for the test...I know that there are a few of you out there who choose not to comment for some reason. Sorry you missed out on the super cool "prize"**
And the super cool "prize" goes too....(drum roll please...)
Marissa who is way smarter than me...she correctly answered 3 out of the 5 questions.
CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!!!
#1. You are participating in a race. You overtake the second person. What position are you in?
ANSWER: You are in second place.
#2. If you overtake the last person, than you are?
ANSWER: You can't overtake the last person...the last person is the LAST person there is!
**The third question must be done in your head...no paper or calculator!**
#3. Take 1000 and add 40 to it. Now add another 1000. Now add 30. Add another 1000. Now add 20. Add another 1000. Now add 10. What is the total?
ANSWER: 4100 (really...check it with a calculator)
#4. Mary's father has five daughters: Nana, Nene, Nini, Nono. What is the name of the fifth daughter?
ANSWER: Mary (but...Nunu is a really great answer too.)
Bonus Round:A mute person goes into a shop and wants to buy a toothbrush. By imitating the action of brushing his teeth he successfully expresses himself to the shopkeeper and the purchase is done. Next, a blind man comes into the shop who wants to buy a pair of sunglasses; how does he indicate what he wants?
ANSWER: He just opens his mouth and asks for them...it's that simple!

Did you see the Lunar Eclipse...
I was excited when, on my way home from school tonight, I noticed the moon.
I had heard that there was going to be an eclipse this evening...but I would have totally forgotten about it if it weren't for my chance glance into the sky.
Anywho...it is pretty neat, I hope you all have/had the opportunity to check it out.
I was just excited that it wasn't one of those astronomical events that occur at some gastly hour in the middle of the night and even though you would love to witness it there is no way your thirty-something year old body can stay up that late, and forget setting the alarm to get up because once the thirty-something year old body is sleeping it really likes to stay that way for as long as possible.
I had a brilliant (read psychotic) idea when I arrived home. I grabbed the camara and attempted to take a photo of the partially eclipsed moon. But...alas I achived no success. It is currently colder that the Antarctic outside and I couldn't stop shaking enough to keep the moon in the view finder...let alone push the dumb button while keeping the camara still. I have resorted to just watching the "action" out the front window from the comfort of my nice toasty house.
While the lunar eclipse is not rare...it is still pretty interesting.
