Ha ha, awesome.

*Fifteen people are trapped aboard a ship that's going to sink in exactly 20 minutes. Their only chance for survival is the five-person life raft stowed on their vessel. To make matters worse, the waters around the ship are teeming with man-eating sharks, so swiming to safety is out of the question.
A round-trip to the nearest island and back to the boat takes nine minutes on the raft. How many people will live to see dry land...
please answer that
Kit:
I wonder if Frank made it.
jm:
wow its amazing they should exicute order 66 with a lot of clones XD
Phil:
Awesome find. Its always interesting to find older pictures of the way something will work in the future, and then compare it to what actually ended up being the case.

Wow, that wasn't a question I ever expected my mom to ask. Must be a completely, totally different Katya.
Still a great interview. I usually don't give Beefeater much of a chance, but 24 actually sounds nonboring.
twitter.com/robmarais:
What a delightful read on what goes into my next favorite gin. Classic Beefeater has been my mixing gin for eons. I'm intrigued by 24, all the more so by learning of Payne's care and craft in creating it.
sushiesque:
Not that I noticed. But I was getting over a hideous cold and not particularly interested in the beverages.
quinciana:
Katya's Mom just wants to know whether this is the blogger who would know whether gin was served at Fuzzy's wedding in Maine.
Bryana Dunn:
Every doodad is a doohickey. Half of all thingamajigs are doohickeys. Half of all doohickeys are doodads. There are 30 thingamajigs and 20 doodads. No thingamajig is a doodad. How many doohickeys are neither doodads nor thingamajigs?

Even as an insufferable teetotaler, I found this a wonderful read.

Beefeater:
Hanky Panky is an amazing cocktail. One of my personal favourites. My recipe of choice looks something like this.
2 PARTS Beefeater London Dry Gin
2 PARTS Italian vermouth
2 DASH Fernet Branca
SHAKE All ingredients over ice
STRAIN Into a chilled cocktail glass
SQUEEZE A freshly cut orange peel on top
Awesome Video Tutorial on the cocktail: www.beefeatergin.com/mixology/video.php?video =Hanky%20Panky

You should know that this blog is one of the first sites to come up in a search for the terms, "harvard square" and "crazy people" (I was seeking a couple specific crazies). While I may not have found what I was looking for, I am digging your blog.

Pippa:
A couple are driving home in the dark when the car breaks down, the husband decided to walk to a petrol station for help that was a few miles back, so he locked all the doors,windows and boot. On his return there was a stranger in the car and his wife was dead,there was no damage to the car at all.what happened?????
James Price:
Yeah I found this out the hard way. The people who work at the Library of Congress were none too nice about setting me straight. Most of the people that work there do not want to be bothered, I think. The people that registered me and got me my car (of which there were three) were super nice. But everyone else is either mean or indifferent. I shouldn't have even gotten the reader ID (which you supposedly need to even read anything at the LOC) because I've yet to be stopped and asked for it, even at the "researcher only" entrance! Weak.

Dear sushiesque - is there any way I can contact you offsite to ask for permission to use one of your photographs?

1. no; I was with my parents, and they had their own agenda.
2. I couldn't find it, but I didn't look too hard. I do hope it has not been felled.
bonus: there was an unusual quantity of big green snails clinging to little rocks in freakish clumps.
Gabriel Mckee:
Awww, jealous-- I love Harkness. I rather want to go back there sometime soon. Two questions:
1. Did you go to Sarge's? I rather want to go back there, too. (It's where I bought my first Ace Doubles!)
2. Did you see the tree with the boob?
three men go to a hotel. The clerk charges them $30.00 for a room. Each man pays $10.00 totalling $30.00. The clerk later discovers the charge was $25.00 for a room. He gives the bellhop 5 - one dollare bills to give back to the men. The bellhop pocketed two dollars and gives each man back one dollar each. But that means each man paid $9.00 each totalling $27.00 and the bellhop kept two dollars. That adds up to $29.00 dollare. What happened to the other dollar.
Help, I need an answer!
Posted by: LISA | 13 December 2004 at 08:17 AM
Well, LISA, it helps to put the problem in the form of a simple algebraic equation. If you do this, you will find that there is no "other dollar", because we are no longer talking about a room charge of $30 - it is $25 instead. Each man paid $9, adding up to $27: subtract the $2 "tip" from this and you get $25. This is demonstrative of how what seems to be the obvious way of doing things can sometimes be very wrong, and that children need to be taught critical thinking skills. Grammar, spelling and punctuation are helpful as well.

HERE IS A RIDDLE: WHY WOULD PEOPLE CONTINUE TO ASK FOR ANSWERS TO RIDDLES ON A WEBSITE THAT DOES NOT ANSWER RIDDLES AND HAS NEVER DONE SO?
Posted by: oh for god's sake | 28 October 2005 at 02:20 PM
Answer: because people don't actually read web pages, they just use search engines to get to them. hence my text-heavy, effete, abstract website was the #1 site on Google if you typed in "dancing the crip walk" because I mentioned it like once.
In sum, the average person is no more intelligent than the average search engine, and views the latter as a slightly more experienced friend who holds the answers to the universe. you should see the live feed of search strings which they project on the wall at Google.

You know, normally I'd make a snarky comment about how no one is answering riddles here, but the fact that you said that you need an answer to a riddle and then *answered the riddle* just fucking blew my mind. I think I've become enlightened.
Posted by: unsinn | 12 December 2005 at 12:28 PM
Nevermind, I just noticed you were answering a riddle from an earlier comment. This also blows my mind.
