Okay, you know how people, especially teens, are “Rebelling against the norm?” We are told to be our selves, not told what that means. I am going to try to explain what I think is going on here. It always makes sense in my head, but when I try to tell someone, I can’t explain it. So please, bear with me. Continue reading
The Aswer to Einstein’s quiz is in!
Well, it isn’t October, but I think I shall review.
Einstein’s Intelligence Quiz
Einstein wrote this quiz last century. He said that 98% of the people in the world cannot solve the quiz.
- There are 5 houses in 5 different colors
- In each house lives a person with a different nationality
- These 5 owners drink a certain type of beverage, smoke a certain brand of cigar, and keep a certain pet
- No owners have the same pet, smoke the same brand of cigar or drink the same drink.
Here’s the question: Who owns the fish?
- The Brit lives in a red house
- The Swede keeps dogs as pets
- The Dane drinks tea
- The green house is on the left of the white house
- The green house owner drinks coffee
- The person who smokes Pall Mall rears birds
- The owner of the yellow house smokes Dunhill
- The man living in the house right in the middle drinks milk
- The Norwegian lives in the first house
- The man who smokes Blend lives next door to the one who keeps cats.
- The man who keeps horses lives next door to the man who smokes Dunhill
- The owner who smokes Blue Master drinks beer
- The German smokes Prince
- The Norwegian lives next to the blue house
- The man who smokes Blend has a neighbor who drinks water
With these 15 clues the problem is solvable.
Now, if your going to do the quiz I suggest you get a piece of paper, section off five squares across, and four squares down. In the top row of squares, write in the nationality. In the second row, write the beverages. In the third row, write the cigars. In the fourth row, write the pets. Read through the list and cross out the items that do not belong. Now you will have to read through the list several times and it may take a few pieces of paper; but it’s nice to know that you are in the two percent that can do it.
Spoiler alert!!! The Answer is directly below. Don’t you dare click on the ‘Read More’ button! Answer below.
Please comment and tell me your answer and how long it took.
my philosophizing post. Number One
Well it’s been a while. I’m going to post those pictures of the answers for the quiz sometime soon, but until then I’m going to do something I haven’t done before. I’m going… to philosophize. There, I said it, I am a philosophizer of sorts. I don’t make a philosophy I just think really, really deep, like whether human nature is good or evil. Lets break it down a little more: are you looking at this from an atheistic or christian point of view? Now you may not think that matters, but it does. An atheist believes that mankind is evolving, and part of that evolutionary step is that humans are ‘evolving’ into better creatures which means that we will eventually evolve out of evil and into some sort of ‘better being’.
Christians and other religions believe that man has a sin nature, that we are not going to turn into beams of light and float around the galaxy like a better version of Q from ‘Star Trek’ . Not that his whole entire race was really better. In fact, I would say that the race Q was worse than what we are now. Anyway, we also believe in a life after death, evolutionists do not. We believe that there is a god, they do not. A good book to read about that subject is a book called ‘A Conflict Of Visions’ by Thomas Sowell. It’s hard to keep interested in since it was written to big corporation rich people. (I don’t remember the actual term but that was basically it.) The book goes into the two different types of world views, those being the constrained and the unconstrained visions. The constrained is the christian world view and the unconstrained is atheistic.
You may recall that the American Revolution was based on a constrained vision, they wanted less power for those with power. Like the saying goes, power corrupts, absolute power corrupts absolutely. When you have a king or emperor or even a president, there’s no way to stop human nature, whether you think that human nature is good or bad is up to you. I leave you with these answers of mine.
So I believe that humans:
- Have a sin nature.
- Are not getting better.
- Did not, are not, and will never evolve.
- Are not related to monkeys.
Leave a comment, or not. It’s your choice, but please do something.
Lazy day log * Picture Heavy* (I always wanted to say that)
7:00: Got out of my loft bed, couldn’t sleep, (My allergies were bad this morning) stubbed my toe on a book shelf. (I am going to do this allot) Ate biscuit’s and gravy for Breakfast, let Kahn out back. (By this time it was 7:30ish) I heard Kahn barking at something. Normally, I wouldn’t do anything but his barking sounded different than usual. I stepped out back to see what he had found. As I approached, I saw he was very exited about something. Continue reading

Don’t Worry, Be Happy!
I don’t know why, but today feels like a good day. I woke up this way and intend to stay this way through the whole day. I just hope that I won’t be able to be put in a bad mood by those who aren’t as fortunate as I to wake up in a good mood. It’s kinda funny actually; I don’t no why I’m writing this post anyway. It’s not like I’m posting about anything in particular, but to post about how good I feel. About this point my sister, Birdwhisperer ,would post some sorta video that has something to do with being happy. It’s harder to find a song about how happy in the way that I feel, but I found one, so here it is…
So as I listen to this song, my dad is eating all of the green Apple Jacks™ out of the container; I know, it’s weird, but hey, thats my dad.
Goodbye
Hurray! Summer is almost over! I don’t like Summer; Fall is okay but I like Winter, and I don’t like hot weather. I like cold, snow, rain, and I don’t like Allergies. Let me clarify: I have seasonal Allergies. Spring, Summer, Fall, and Winter are the seasons I have trouble with. Here is a list of allergies of mine.
Spring and Summer Allergies
- Pollen from every kind of grass, especially Timothy Grass.
- Pollen from every kind of trees, especially Oak tree’s. That’s all we have in our backyard, other than the three Dogwood Trees.
- Pollen from every kind of flower, which is really bad because I like flowers. Continue reading
Now That’s good Music.
I noticed awhile ago that I have a different taste in music than most others, sure I like a couple songs that are more modern than most of the ones I like. I do have slightly odd taste of music, well, maybe not as odd as I thought, but still a little odd for my age. I suppose rather than just saying how odd I am I could just tell you what kind, huh? Well here are my favorite songs and singers.
Frank Sinatra: New York, My way, Chicago, Something Stupid, Bad Bad Leroy Brown, Mack the Knife, I get a kick Out of you, Moon River, What Now My Love, For Once in my Life, Summer Wind, They can’t take that Away From Me, My kind of Town, Fly Me to the Moon, The best is yet to Come, Come Fly with Me, (One of My favorites of all) That’s Life, Ring-a-Ding-Ding, Coffee Song, and For Once in My Life.
Glenn Miller: Chattanooga Choo Choo, In the Mood, American Patrol, and Pennsylvania 65000
And now for the more modern songs
I like A-ha’s version of Crying in the rain, I don’t watch the video, it’s just weird.
The proclaimers: 500 miles, I’m on my way, and whole wide world.
Michael Bublè: Summer Wind, Haven’t Met You Yet, Feeling Good, Come fly With Me, Sway, For Once In Life, Fever, Crazy Little Thing, Call Me Responsible, Everything.
Pretty much anything Celtic thunder Does.
Bill Withers is pretty good.
I suggest looking up the songs if you don’t know them, anyway, I think that’s it. If you like any of them just tell me, leave a comment. Bye y’all!
The, “I can’t think of a name that describes this post” post name
My Mom went to the Rescue squad to cook Breakfast for a group of people who actually were there after the funeral of there father, I ended up coming along just to help, actually, my French toast was a hit and only a few remain, anyway. When we finished cooking and the group was eating, I was siting at a table in the kitchen with my sister and brother.We somehow ended up on the conversation of what songs to be played at my sisters wedding, on then it just got a little weirder and ended up on the topic of what songs would be played at our funerals. The list is kind of funny, maybe a little odd, I mean they are after all songs that were talking about playing a our funeral so here is a list of what I can remember. I suggest that if you don’t now the song to look it up rather than just say, ‘I wonder what that is?’ here it is, the list…
the Bucket song list
My way by Frank Sinatra
Green Fields of France by Celtic Thunder
Blue Skies by Willie Nelson
We all go together when we go by Tom Lehrer (Optional)
The wedding list
This is the way it would work out. At Colleen’s wedding I am told I will get up and start by saying something like “I dedicate this song to the groom” And then start singing Willie Nelsons song “To all the girls Ive loved before” And Then say that I was joking and start singing ‘Blue Skies’
Anyway, I think thats it for now, Bye!
