    Kennedy half dollar coin in a coke bottle.

    I did this prompted by a challenge in the early eighties. I put a half-dollar coin in a classic coke bottle. Sorry about the picture quality.--- In-person the coin is real as is the bottle. To date- I have been unable to find if this has been done by another and if so I am interested in how they...

    Scam Callers.

    I am a fan of playing with scam callers but I don't seek them out. Today I got a call that told me I was entitled to 1.7 million dollars. So I called them back and listened to their long pitch. My response was that 1.7 million was WAY too much money for me to deal with. I asked them how many...

    Simple Math Puzzles

    I have always liked this kind of stuff and tend to solve a Sudoku puzzle when I wake up in the morning -kinda like some have a cup of coffee. (it gets the blood flowing to the brain as does stretching and exercising). I came across this simple puzzle/question on youtube and liked its simplicity...

    How do you deal with coins?

    We get coins when we break a dollar. --It's a mix of coins that is always less than a buck. I never like digging for a coin or two when spending paper money so I eventually end up with a pile of those things at home. Some years back I took $1700 worth to my bank to turn it back into paper. It...

    The forever quest to try to break a law of physics

    This one is especially clever IMO. I can sometimes spend hours watching these devices trying to figure out how they hide from the "law of conservation of energy" --If the device is enclosed from outside forces there will be no gain of energy.---No free lunch

    Putting things in a bottle

    I was always intrigued by ships in a bottle. It is a cool topic to research. Years ago I took on the challenge of putting a coin in a bottle. This is a classic 6.5 oz coke bottle. I put a Kennedy half dollar coin in it. It was not easy.

    When someone really stinks in public?

    I found out today. I was 15 feet from anybody in a supermarket today and got a whiff of body and urine odor that had a sharp tinge that makes one gasp. The person in front of me at checkout (gender not known) spent way too much time with the credit card machine and I had to back out of the aisle...

    What can go wrong today?

    Today was cold again like the last couple of weeks. The temp. was 7degrees and I went out to warm up my Dakoda. The doors were frozen again so I used a wooden wedge to open the drivers side. Got it running to warm it up and came back inside. When I got back I found the doors locked. I guess my...
