L.T.Q. #6
________________________________________
Against his better judgment Captain Frank attended Art Bragg's annual Christmas party. Captain Frank sat in a corner trying to be as inconspicuous as possible, when Art trapped him in one of his many tall tales. "Why yes," began Art, "even my days as a younger man were filled with adventures. That beautiful white rabbit skin and that 14 point moosehead on the wall are both from animals that I shot when I was just a lad of 12. I got them both up in Canada during my July 4th holidays. Two summers later I shot this beautiful bear you're sittin' your feet on." Captain Frank realizing that Art was just getting started, got up and said, "Art, excuse me, but I can't take your bull any longer." Why did Captain Frank say this?

L.T.Q. #7
________________________________________
Duncan Drivel had a collection of rare bird calling records which he wished to sell. He sold half of his records plus a half record more to Professor Bumble. then he sold half of what was left and a half record more to Whislin Willy. At this point Duncan had one record left. How many records did Duncan have originally?
________________________________________
Two other questions come to mind.
1. What are Professor Bumble and Whislin Willy going to do with only half a record? Is it the top half or bottom half? Or maybe the left half or the right half. And won't it destroy the record player to try to play only half a record?
2. What is the title of the record Duncan has left, and why did he keep it?
Which brings a third question to mind: Who is the biggest turkey of the bunch?

Answer 1

Dude, all your questions are open ended. I am neither a counselor nor an advisor. So, I better get myself out of here.

Answer 2

#1 - don't know about the email part. As for the tea, she knew it was the same because it was cold.

#2 - Probably a variation on the "was hiding in the wheelwell of a plane, froze to death and fell out" story.

#3 - don't know about Part 1. Part 2 sounds a bit like a chess match, although in chess the king is never actually "attacked".

#4 - the postman is the only male of the 3.

#5 - no idea.

#6 - Unless the rabbit is albino, its coloration wouldn't have been white in July.

#7 - He originally had 7 records.

#8 - 18 bumpers. Two for each of the middle 8 cars, one for the last car, and one for the first car.

#9 - The horse is already at the end of his rope. He's five meters away from the post, and the hay is only one meter behind the post (six meters behind the horse). Easily reachable.

#10 - A train track will be laid right by/through the property.

Answer 3

1)The computer is not packed away. You don't send paper cards through there and you don't send e-mails on paper cards.
There was a piece of the fly still in her tea from when they tried to get it out.
2)He was dropped off of an ice cream truck driven by a psycho killer.
3)He jumped onto the horse when he went by.
They're the ones that told her to kill him.
4)The milkman was a man, the killer's name was bill, and the doctor and lawyer are women.
5)She put on sun block or forgot tot turn over.
6)"Why, the bull is in the other room."
7)He had 7 records to begin with. 7/2=3.5-0.5=3/2=1.5-0.5=1
They are going to use the 1/2 records as wall decorations for a the DJ booth at the club. The name of the one he kept was Darude's Sandstorm~The Original. And the biggest turkey is the person who can't answer any of these questions.
8)18 bumpers hit~There were 10 cars. The front of the first car and the back of the last were not hit, but everyone in between was. That's 1 each for two cars and 2 each for 8 cars. 8x2+2=18.
9)There's another bale of hay in front of him.
10)The Moscow Sea is not on Earth.
