In other words, same old rubbish. -1. On a standard 8x8 chessboard, how many different squares of any size (from 1x1 to 8x8) are there? -2. A Frib is neither a Loji nor a Mith A Twog is a Dork or a Nurf A Gluc is neither a Caln nor a Josh A Shen is a Loji or a Nurf A Korl is neither a Dork nor a Nurf A Brut is a Caln or a Josh A Frib is a Josh or a Nurf A Korl is a Josh Who is which? -3. Ten men live in a street. A B C D and E live at numbers 1-5 and F G H I and J live at numbers 6-10, but not necessarily in that order. The houses are arranged so: Code 1 2 3 4 5 10 9 8 7 6 The man next door to the man opposite I is E F lives three houses away from G H lives opposite C If C is not central, then A is B lives three houses away from C If F is not central, then I is D lives opposite G The man next door to the man opposite A is J C does not live at number 5 Who lives where? -4. FARM is the shortest word that will provide the letters to make AM, FAR and MAR. In a similar manner, which is the shortest word that will provide the letters to make STRIDE, TAX, MOUSE and BOARD? -5. " A life is like a garden. Perfect moments can be had, but not preserved, except in memory. LLAP" was the final tweet of whch actor? -6. Which number comes next in this series and why:? 100, 121, 144, 202, 244, 400 -7. Napoleon may not have designed the coat he wore but he did ---- - ---- -- --. -8. "Don't ever stand up to be counted. Someone is bound to ---- your ----" Last edited by Urban Worrier; 07/16/19 04:38 PM. To waste one second of one's life is a betrayal of one's self. I wonder what's on television...?

We are told that a Korl is a Josh, so a Frib is a Nurf, a Twog is a Dork, a Shen is a Loji, a Brut is a Caln and a Gluc is a Mith - on the other hand a nurf is surely a nurf already! (I thought this might be all about some word play groaners such as LojiShen, but if so I have missed them...) Life is what happens while you're making other plans.
