    A farmer who had 11 cows died. He left I son half of the cows, another son a quarter of the cows, and his third son a sixth of the cows. They did not know how to divide the cows up without killing them, so they asked the farmer next door to help them out. He did, and all the cows were divided up in the correct manner. How was this done ??

    As for the quize above - it was sent to me by a friend - answers intact. Personally I only knew the answer to one. # 2. Which state...... Comming from the midwest area - I could vision the diferent lakes and states in my mind\'s eye.
  4. davecathy wrote at Jan 18, 2006 at 00:52 o\clock:well, just for the record, the other farmer lent them one of his cows, so they had twelve, and could split them up into those fractions. Then there was 1 cow left ovee, so the farmer took it back.

    According to the CIA , Britain is an island off the coast of N.W. Europe, slightly smaller than Oregon.

    Small is beautiful, specially where I live, on the coast.

    I can see the sea from my bedroom

I\'m envious - of sorts - your decription of your home land sounds very nice. I think waking up every day to the sights and sounds of the sea would be very nice.
