I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
And Jessica's right again! I hate logic problems.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Funny thing is, the two-weighing solution will also work with nine pennies.
The puzzle says eight pennies to trick you into thinking in terms of powers of two.

ION, as a good FauxGrandma, I am helping FauxGrandSon with fundraising for the choir tour by buying two pies, one of which can go in the (my!new!big!) freezer so I'm not sitting in front of the tv with a fork in each hand. One Key Lime and one cherry. Nummy nummy.
Annoyingly, a third of my freezer is taken up by the ice maker I don't intend to use.

Yep. "Who was doing quality control? Did their test cases cover the possibility of one of the coins being lighter?"
I was so glad that MSFT stopped using those sorts of logic puzzles when I went through interviews with them.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Thanks for nothing, man -- I already didn't have a sandwich for lunch and probably won't have a sandwich for dinner!
