Am I the only person who took the puzzles seriously? Oh well...
Is that the same as this?
3 guys go out for pizza'
was a nice spinach, sundried tomato, olives and feta one.
On payment, each puts in $10.00 and gives $30.00 to their waiter.
Waiter returns with $5.00 change and the guys take $1.00 each and offer the remaining $2.00 as a tip to the waiter
therefore each guy was happy with their $9.00
Well if 3 x 9 =27 + 2(waiter tip) =29.
What happened to the other $1.00?The $9 represents each person's contribution to the $30 handed over, minus their change of $1 each. In other words, the $9 is their share of the total price of the pizza plus their share of the tip. Therefore, the $9 includes the tip already, so it's incorrect to add the $2 tip to the 3 x $9 ($27). You should only add the change, which is three dollars and so adds to the correct total of $30.
I haven't figured out Steve's puzzle yet.

seven if you count the police "witness".
Why the quote marks, Dave?

I asked him your question.
I didn't have a question.

Which you said correlated with Dave's case.
where?Scroll up page 14 to where you quote about 100 words of Dave C's viewpoint, and then state: "I agree".
-
Because its my case.
Which you said correlated with Dave's case.

Which song do you mean, Danielle? The LND one??

Actually I think it is related to s59 in concept as he tried to say he was being corrective.
And lost.
I don't think you're helping Dave C's case. In as much as this became a "section 59" issue, he did himself and the anti-"aniti-smaking bill" side no favours.

Look Dave, I can see you're really upset about this. I honestly think you ought to sit down calmly, take a stress pill, and think things over.
