I live in Houston, Texas. Have seen something unknown lately at night in yard. Conjurs up thoughts of flying squirrel, although they are not reported to live in this part of the country. It is small, dark brown and seems to both fly and run. I did not see a long tail and it did not appear to be a typical rodent as it seemed almost "webbed" along it's sides. Any ideas?

Three guys are eating at a restaurant. When they finish, their tab is $15. They decide to split it evenly, so they each give $5 to the waiter. The waiter gives the money to the store owner, who happens to be a good friend of the three guys. The store owner decides to take $5 of the three guys' tab, so he gives the waiter five $1 bills and tells him to split evenly among the three guys.
The waiter is not very good at math, and also not very honest, so instead of figuring out how to split $5 among three people, he just gives each guy a $1 bill and keeps the other two for himself.
Now each guy paid $5 and got $1 back, so each guy effectively paid $4. There are three guys, so between thre three of them, they paid $12. The waiter has $2 more in his pocket. This adds up to $14. If the original tab was $15, then where did the remaining dollar go?

Lately when I look down from my brothers apartment balcony from the 18th floor, I get squeamish in the stomach because i am not enclosed in anything. It feels like my knees get weak. In Montreal, there is a rollercoaster called the Goliath. It goes up 153 metres slowly. I've went on it in June, but I couldnt bare the height. I am going back on it this Saturday, and I really want to go on it again, but I dont want to get to nervous because of the height. Please help me overcome this fear. Thanks.
