(10-7) x6 – (9-8) = 17: Wednesday, March 31, 2010
So last night, my friend Jon emailed me his answer to the equation …
“this works…(10-7) x6 – (9-8) = 17″. Leave it to Jon … I know he worked relentlessly on this to come up with an answer … and he did! Well done …. I mean it Jon M, you’re the only 50+ year old I know that can do still sixth grade math!
I also got another reply this evening from another one of Al’s teachers:
“(10×7)-6 divided by 8, plus 9”.
So it can be done! … and now that I look at it … how freakin’ simple!
I got a chance to cook on the new stove today! Sher roasted a small turkey breast and when I got home I made the gravy …. Yummy, tasty Turkey gravy! I spent most of the rest of the evening with corresponding emails and cleaning up some loose little ends of work here and there. Kind of relaxing.
Sher and I have been talking about slowly shutting down some of the projects we have going. One of those things may end up being our radio show and the website that goes along with it. We’re not in hurry to do it … but I think it’s time to start “lightening the load” a bit.
It’s a shame, because it’s one of the things I really enjoy doing. I’ve worked with radio for a lot of years (most of it volunteer) and love it … but it is sooooo time consuming. We haven’t really come to a conclusion as exactly what we’re going to do … but somethings going to happen
. We’ll see what happens … maybe some one else will want to run.
So many things to do … so little time to do them. Boy, has that taken on new meaning these days … no really, I mean that. It seems that there are more and more causes I want to get involved with, and less and less time to be involved. Funny how that happens.
I have been doing little bits here and there on my database project …. But over the last two or three weeks, I just haven’t had a chance to set aside a chuck of time, to make some of the larger changes or additions … actually, part of it messed up right now and in need of being re-worked but it’ll have to wait for the weekend.
Hmmm … feels good to say that!
Well, that’s it for this evening …
