I just met with some of the decendents of the original land owner. The youngest seems to be approximately my age. I took him to the cellar hole. He never knew it was there. He's got historical maps of the property and is going to try and figure out what it was. I gave them 3 bricks that i assume were chimney bricks, so they could have a momento. Good day for all.

Hope you find some good stuff WD. On the Pro, I know how knew this but those iffy signals like high with a low tones together could be some buttons. Like 84-46 for example.
 

SIMON!!, Did you hide my other house shoe? da345da6eb7c44704ad1f9ea1c76a724.webp You can't have nothin nice around here.:laughing9:
 

Here is a simpler one-

Suppose you are cooking and you need exactly six cups of flour but you only have two measuring cups. One measure measures four cups and one measures nine cups. How can you use them to get the needed six cups?

What??? L.o.l...Trick questions today...
Measure four cups from the nine cupper's four cup mark. Or , two and a half dumps of the four cupper.
(Or . Trade one of the cups for the needed flour.:icon_scratch:)

Can't really guess. You need exactly six cups while you can only measure nine and four. No tricks- I pulled this out of real life.

Ooops. Measure six cups with the 9 cup cup. (Measuring cups are marked. Calibrated by cups and portions of cups...)

Good thing I have a headache to go with math today.

Now. Two pats left on the table.
Three pats left in the woods.
That's five lefts. How can they make/be a six right????
 

Measure 6 4-cups giving you 24 cups. Subtract from that 2 9-cups which would be 18 cups. This leaves you with 6 cups.

...and now you are cooking. :icon_scratch:

But there is a simpler solution. Releventchair was on the right track, he just didn't press the "equals" button on his calculator. :dontknow:
 

And Mr WD wonders how I can make such a mess in the kitchen. LOL! That was fun!

Alright. Duckshot's ducks are hot in the oven and it's time to make Grandma's secret gravy recipe. We need six cups of flour-

First I fill my nine cup measure and pour out four cups into the four cup measure leaving me with five cups in the nine cup measure. Then I pour our four of the five cups remaining in the nine cup measure into the four cup measure leaving me with precisely one cup in the nine cup measure. Now, I pour that one cup from the nine cup measure into the four cup measure leaving me with precisely three cups of empty space in the the four cup measure. Then I just fill the nine cup and subtract three cups using the four cup measure which has one cup in it.

As Grandma says, "Soup's on!" :laughing7:

Geesh if I did it that way, I might only make half the mess. Lol
 

Fixing roast beef, with potatoes, carrots and onions tonight in the pressure cooker. If you all hear a loud boom, it might be my house.
