I thought I would kick off the Christmas season with a proper limerick: 26 Shopping days to go . . .

There was an old elf named Bing

He was good at only one thing

He was clumsy with tools

And broke all the rules

But boy could that son-of-a-bitch sing.

Lawyer Says Client Is Not That Guilty

There once was a turkey named Dunn

Thanksgiving, for him, wasn’t fun

He was the main source

Of dinner, of course

And when it was through, he was done.

“When Thanksgiving is misty and murky

And you’re indoors all happy and perky

There’ll be people to greet

Lots of goodies to eat

But just spare a thought for the turkey.”

“The turkey did not turn out fine.

So I thought I would break out the wine.

By dessert they were wasted

From the wine that they tasted

And they all thought the dinner divine.”

“Two Convicts Evade Noose, Jury Hung”

11/16/2021 Mindbusters   Leave a comment

I needed a break from writing today and decided to offer something a little different than the usual.

I posted this quiz for the first time in 2008. No one was able to answer all of the questions then, not even me. Some are very easy and some are very difficult, hence the name. My best response back in the day was 21 out of 25 correct answers. Have a go at it and see how you do. I’ll post all of the answers in a few days. That will give you a little time to work on it. Have fun . . .

Each number corresponds to a common phrase.

Example: 12 = I. in a F. Answer: 12 = INCHES in a FOOT.

26 = L. of the A.

7 = W. of the W.

1001 = A.N.

12 = S. of the Z.

54 = C. in a D. (with the J.)

9 = P. in the S.S.

88 = P.K.

18 = H. on a G.C.

32 = D.F. at which W.F.

90 = D. in a R.A.

200 = D. for P.G. in M.

8 = S. on a S.S.

3 = B.M. (S.H.T.R.)

4 = Q. in a G.

24 = H. in a D.

1 = W. on a U.

5 = D. in a Z.C.

57 = H.V. 11 = P. on a F.T.

1000 = W. that a P. is W.

29 = D. in F. in a L.Y.

40 =D. and N. of the G.F.

64 = S. on a C.

13 = D. in a B.D.

52 = W. in a Y.
