thank you wormhole
so NOW !!!
as i would expect from you !!!!

[Wormhole]

As often we all do, I feel my ego projecting. I bring myself back by asking a simple question:

What is my relationship with the present moment?

Then I am, again.

THANK YOU Rhythm, for projecting Love and Light on this current thread!

It's amazing how something can stare you in the face and you are unable to see it until it is pointed out to you.

In a classroom the children were learning simple geometry and the names of different shapes. The teacher then asked them to tell her the number of sides each figure drawn on the blackboard had.

In turn she pointed to a triangle, a square, an oblong and then a circle. The children shot their hands into the air shouting for the teacher to pick them and each one chosen gave the right answer - until she pointed to the circle.

There was a silence and then one child put her hand up and said that the circle had no sides. The teacher told her that she was correct and that circles, being round, did not have sides.

Little Alan thought for a moment then tentatively put his hand up saying, "I think a circle has two sides Miss." The other children laughed at this and the teacher, with a patient smile on her face said, "alright Alan, you come up here and point out to us, the sides that a circle has got."

Alan got up from his desk, walked up to the teacher and taking her pointer, turns to the class and says, "a circle has two sides." Then turning back to the blackboard, and placing the pointer in the center of the circle said, "here is the in-side," then moving the pointer to outside the circle said, "and here is the out-side."

As in this classroom, so in the world around us - sometimes the obvious has to be brought to your attention. A bit like the expression about not seeing the woods for the trees.

Sadly, even after it has been pointed out, some folk still can't see it. This in turn reminds me of another expression -
there are none so blind as those who will not see.

What you think is reality may not be the whole picture - try a simple experiment, spend a few hours with the sight from one eye blocked. Learn to come to grips with the lack of stereo vision, then, after you become accustomed to being one-eyed, remove the blockage and marvel at what you had always had, but had been taken from you for a short period of time.

How about a bit of brain exercise?

What do the following lines of letters have in common?

A H I M O T U V W X Y

B C D E H I O X

I O X

Now for one that's a bit harder - what do these numbers have in common?

1 2 6 10

4 5 9

3 7 8

Don't lose sleep if you can't get it. Just think of it as being an exercise in viewing the things we take for granted in a different light, or from a different angle.

Allow me to explain Dan's comment. I set him a problem a couple of weeks ago which revolved around marbles. It was a simple but diabolic problem.

I will now give everyone else a chance to solve it . . . . .

You have three cups labeled B/B, W/W and B/W.
There are six marbles. Three black and three white.
Each cup has two marbles in BUT, the combination of marbles in each cup is not the same as the label on the cup.
So, B/B doesn't have two black marbles and W/W doesn't have to white marbles.

Get the picture?

Now, you have to guess the least number of marbles you have to remove to be able to say what each cup contains.

As Dan will tell you, it's an exercise in frustration. How could something so simple be so irritating and beyond fathoming?

But I will tell you in all honesty, it is doable.

[Wormhole]

Each line of letters contains IOX
Each line of numbers = 18

[Wormhole]

Remove one marble from the BW cup, and the rest sorts itself out.

[rhythm]

Brinty can i be realy! realy !

Okay Wormhole, I'll start work on it after we get back from our monthly shopping expedition. But look a bit harder at the lines of letters and numbers.

[Wormhole]

OK, so the numbers are all included in the first ten. 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10

But is there anything else, besides my poor math?

Inch=Chin
Keen=Knee
Earth=Heart
Fringe=Finger
Satchmo=Stomach
Throne=Hornet


Throne=Hornet does not convert to a part of body

INCH = CHIN

KEEN = KNEE

FRINGE = FINGER

SATCHMO = STOMACH

So THRONE must be the odd one.

Sorry Wormhole, but you weren't to know that I do cryptic crosswords to relax and anagrams aren't too difficult to crack - most times.
