Well DONE ... Counselor !

Angela: As a duly appointed officer of the Court in NJ I need an interpretation please? May I bend your ear for purposes of you perhaps defining and explaining the NJ code? As it pertains to contests and sweepstakes? "solemn Timmy look" In an announced contest, is it fraudulent to declare one person the winner if they were not , or didnt actually win?? Like throwing the contest? How about if the person (Sandi) in question... if they are fantastic and super fine? What if your madly in love with them? What if they have made you terribly wonderfully contented and happy? What if they are yer wifey who is a really sharp cookie? Yes? Sigh... ok ok (I tried Sandi) (turns to the spouse person) Then my darling Sandi, compatriot, pal, friend, lovebunny and lifemate... unfortunately your outta luck Sweetie : P I love you anyway, Sandi J : ))) (turns back to Angela Angela) Angela.... is it possible to put you on retainer for these situations when I err bigtime? See I am this unrepentant redneck type guy who gets in mischief alllll the time and a good defense attorney would be a definite asset : ))) **rummages.in his pocket and fanny pack (aka "man purse").for financial resources.. . -umm I think I have a dollar fifty three cents, -two marbles, -my well worn rabbits foot, -a Portland State University Wrestling Schedule (wallet size) cirica 1986 doncha know..... OH ! -And a used sharpie marker (black of course). -And a 2 inch wide roll of my trusty clear packing tape (never leave home without it) Is that enough? I could ask my lovely wife Sandi for a loan....yeah yeah thats the ticket. Or.. HEY...Maybe this could be a "Timmys Internet posting el cheapie retainer.....or maybe it could be a budget bargain basement *part time... retainer? Oh I know I am not even close financially but you have to admit it was a novel idea : P Hey I hadda Ask Das Vidania Timmy Ray : ) PS Congratulations Angela on winning

Great Job Angela - please select a prize from behind one of the two doors that Carol Barrel is standing Door number ONE - a one pound bag of granulated, caffene rich Dunken Donuts Coffee, purchased through the mighty connections of the E through the S yada yada.. yeah anyhow : ))) Door Number TWO - A crisp Five dollar Bill (ooooh big spender) Let me know okay? Thanks to everyone for playing that was more fun than tossing rocks at the neighbor kid !! Timmy Ray Answer ONE Tomorrow or the Future --- Answer TWO The Servant committed the crime. Let's assume that Servant is telling the truth. It means that Manager and Musician are lying. But then none of them committed the crime. Let's assume that Manager is telling the truth. It means that Musician is guilty. But it makes Servant's statement true, which is contradictory. Let's assume that Musician is telling the truth. It means that either Manager or Servant is guilty. Also, Servant is lying. Hence, Manager is not guilty. So The Servant committed the crime. --- Answer THREE: What is the name of the girl from Java? Wee Pee, nicknamed Cold Viva, is the girl from Java. Using method of elimination, following can be deduced: Age Nick name Country Old Viva 22 Mai Tai China Cold Viva 21 Wee Pee Java Gold Viva 19 Free Lee Taiwan Bold Viva 20 Wing Ding Japan Told Viva 18 Yum Yum Korea Fantastic Job Angela, let me know which prize you prefer (actually if your smart you will choose the five bucks as I already offered you the coffee... : P that way you could glom both ya know?) But you are edumacated and you already had that one figured out : ) Chao Timmy Ray

Since Angela already answered the first one (correctly, in my opinion), I will answer the second. No yelling at me 'cause I'm Timmy's wife. I didn't know he even posted these until I saw it myself . Teaser TWO A detective was investigating a crime. She interviewed the Musician, the Manager, and the Servant. Here are their statements: Manager - "The musician is guilty." Musician - "The manager or the servant is guilty." Servant - "If the musician is innocent, the manager is guilty." Two people were lying. Who commited the crime? If the manager was guilty, then he would have been lying, but BOTH the Musician AND Servant would have been telling the truth. If the Servant was guilty, then ONLY the Musician would have been telling the truth-both the Servant and the Manager would be lying (or, at least, not telling the/a truth). If the Musician IS innocent, AND the Servant is LYING, then he'd say the Manager is guilty. If the Musician is innocent AND the Servant is telling the truth, then TWO of them would be telling the truth (the Musician and Servant would both have implicated the Manager). Therefore, the Servant is guilty. I tried my best to explain why I think it was the Servant. Hopefully, I did it correctly. In any case, my head nearly exploded. Since I still have a half day's work left, I didn't think that'd be a good idea, so I'll stop here. Love you, sweetie. -Sandi

ok -- so i got one out of 3 -- it was early hahaha -- somedays, all day IS early roberta
