 Done a good practice on the Le Stregthe (Witches dance). My goal is to memorize the whole darn thing.

It seems that the other bloggers have nothing better to do than discuss my blog. I guess I should be flattered as they have nothing much to say on their own.

I'm taking Friday off work. I'm not one of those people that self adulates by taking my birthday off as a work holiday. I think my dear mother and dad deserve all the praise. I booked it some time ago thinking I might catch up with my darling L but it turns out she is busy with ministry at her Catholic church. No problem, I'll probably catch up with her the weekend after.

So is time travel possible? I think that God who is outside of time can see the future and reveals it to some people. This of course doesn't mean he determines the future. We are all still culpable for our own actions. As for us? If there is some tricky way of travelling through time it is most probably through 'worm holes' where gravitational forces touch. But it it would be very difficult to do and I don't think anyone on earth will spend the money required. We are too busy building weapons to kill each other!

Aliens? Unless they have mastered something like a wormhole in gravity I don't see how they can travel the immense distances given that the maximum speed we can travel is 300,000 km/sec. 

Don't forget that some Catholic priests were paedophiles as were/are many state school teachers and American Boy Scout leaders.

Answer Key and Explanations

1. B) 33 (The pattern is to multiply the previous number by 2, then subtract 1. 17 × 2 - 1 = 33.)
2. A) Deaf (Light is the sensory input missing for a blind person, just as sound is the sensory input missing for a deaf person.)
3. B) 3 (The rate is 1 cat catching 1 mouse every 3 minutes. Therefore, 100 cats working simultaneously will catch 100 mice in 3 minutes.)
4. C) M (The sequence skips two letters each time: A [bc] D [ef] G [hi] J [kl] M.)
5. C) Brass (Brass is an alloy made of copper and zinc. Copper, iron, and tin are pure elemental metals.)
6. C) 6:00 (Rotating the entire physical clock face 90 degrees clockwise moves the hands and numbers together. The hands remain relative to each other, so the clock still visually reads 3:00, but the spatial orientation mimics 6:00.)
7. B) False (Just because some glubs are blubs does not mean the specific glubs that are flubs belong to that group.)
8. B) 6 (This is a 3x3 magic square. Every row, column, and diagonal adds up to 15. 8 + 1 + 6 = 15.)
9. B) Abundance (Scarcity means a severe shortage, while abundance means an overflowing supply.)
10. A) 3 (In a standard four-in-a-row net, alternating squares are opposite each other when folded. 1 is opposite 3, 2 is opposite 4, and 5 is opposite 6.)
