Feline Fun

There are four (4) cats in a boat, and one (1) jumped out. How many cats are left in the boat?

Solution: None, it is clearly said that 4 cats in a boat, one jumped off, since cats and humans are all copycats, the rest 3 cats and anyone who are humans also jumped off the boat.  We care about the moment, thus there in zero cats left in the boat.

Debbie and Bananz have correct answers.

The rest are well reasoned, and I enjoy the fun discussing this with you.  Thank U for the participation!

Happy Sunday 2 U all!

U R The Best!

A Message for Soul Dose (A Copy of Doraz’s Post)

Soul Dose has been fighting an illness, and she is feeling lost right now. She has exhausted all of her options in South Africa, where she lives now with her family. In my opinion, she needs to seek a charitable foundation in this world of ours, that will take on her illness…and find some answers for her. Her family resources are limited and almost depleted. If ANYONE knows of ANY PLACE that can HELP ,Soul Dose PLEASE go to her blog, and pass it on. I am going to start looking on the internet for her to see what I can find. YOUR LOVE AND COMPASSION IN THIS MATTER IS DEEPLY APPRECIATED.

SOUL DOSE

This post is entriely copyed from Luisa Doraz

(see link at : http://dorazsays.wordpress.com/2010/02/27/a-message-from-souldose/) in efforts to help Soul Dose, a new blogging friend who needs support.

If you know any charity or organization that might be helpful for this blessed person, please visit her blog and offer her the needed information. thank U in advance.

I am very foreign about such stuff, thus I have applied Doraz’s words so that NO mistake is made.

Do U Think Stones Have Spirits?

living seeds, like living thoughts or ideas, grow and expand life.

Stones won’t grow, they are detached and rather independent, they could be ultilized to make beautiful houses, but stones accomplish little when it comes to growth. If you plant rocks, your garden reman sterile and unproductive.

Thoughts change  the world.

Do you think stones have spirits?

What is your opinion of rocks or stones in comparison with plants in nature or ideas in human minds?

Thank U for visiting Jingle, Happy Saturday to U all!

😉 😉 😉

English translation by zhouzhzh:
Title: A Beautiful and Mysterious Place
Music by XU Peidong
Lyrics by PAN Qi
Performed by ZHANG Yan

There is a beautiful and mysterious place
Where the Red River flows above the sky
Thousands of elephants are mountains
Flying dragons are rivers
Green waves roll across the forest

The sun is our goal
The moon is our hope
They bring happiness & auspice to all ethnicities
The sun is our goal
The moon is our hope
What a beautiful place
What a mysterious place
It is my lovely hometown, hometown

There is a beautiful and mysterious place
Where the Bronze Drum echoes the ancient love
The Zhuang Brocade weaves out the wonderful hope
The new songs fly all over the land

The mountains are our backs
The rivers are our wings
They carry the affluence of Zhuang & Yao villages
The mountains are our backs
The rivers are our wings
What a beautiful place
What a mysterious place
It is my lovely hometown, hometown

Driving on the highway

To Spend the day,

Thinking about attractions

And map directions,

No need to worry about

Deadlines,

Simply get out

With loved ones.

GPS will show you the way,

It is time to relax at a beautiful bay,

Credit cards will help you pay

So that you have genuine fun

Under the winking sun!

Do you take family vacations?

Do you have a special story to share?

Check it out and enjoy the fun!

What Is the value of x?

Someone r bored, I am kind of bored 2, let’s solve  some math problems:

#1:

square x means multiple x twice, if x^2=9, then what is the possible value of x?

#2:

absolute value means the absolute value of positive 5 and negative five are both equal to 5.

for example, if |x|=5, then x=5, -5.

Now, I have a harder question:

if |x+1|=1, what is the value of x?

Answers:

#1: x=3, -3.

#2: x=-2, 0.

Good Luck, math fans!

I value your efforts, cheers, 😉 😉 😉
