Hey hey, look who's back.. ..hmm, i think that 1 week break was a needed one...And this sounds pretty fun and simple as winnie was able to give her answer.. ..i'm not guessing, but my original guess was supposed to be yenom (spelled backwards).. Anyways, IMO, the answers given by others should be counted, angelatby, as there was no indication if the answer(s) is/are supposed to be a "thing", or something "sacred" or "abstract"...Only after it was made clear that it was a "sacred thing", did it become clear....Or for those who guessed the closest one to the correct answer, they'll get extra points, how's that??.. On that note, IMO, the closest answer was given by Linus --> "Love"..
well there are only 7 sacraments and this awards 9 points so let's see... Im liked by some and hated by some. Some misuse me, some abuse me... some treat me like never-ending Baptism Confirmation Communion Marriage Holy Orders (ordaining priests, bishops, pope, etc) Confession Anointing of the Sick (last rights) Best bet is marriage, you could argue it being communion - liked/hated by some (the taste of it), misuse (some receive it when they're not worthy to), abuse (some people do... i hear it's a sin beyond the authority of priest to forgive), never-ending ("you will never be hungry again" words from the man himself)

Fare Calculation 12th QUESTION (27th JUN 2007): [FONT=Verdana, sans-serif]Three economists and three mathematicians were going for a trip by train. Before the journey, the mathematicians bought 3 tickets but economists only bought one. The mathematicians were glad their stupid colleagues were going to pay a fine. [/FONT] [FONT=Verdana, sans-serif][/FONT] [FONT=Verdana, sans-serif]However, when the conductor was approaching their compartment, all three economists went to the nearest toilet. The conductor, noticing that somebody was in the toilet, knocked on the door. In reply he saw a hand with one ticket. He checked it and the economists saved 2/3 of the ticket price. The next day, the mathematicians decided to use the same strategy- they bought only one ticket, but economists did not buy tickets at all! When the mathematicians saw the conductor, they hid in the toilet, and when they heard knocking they handed in the ticket. They did not get it back.[/FONT] Why?
The mathematicians did not get their ticket back because the one knocking at the door was one of the economists, not the conductor!!! The economists took their ticket and repeat the same trick in another toilet!
right Linus! this one is a favourite joke during my uni days. except in our version it is the engineers versus the mathematicians. in this case though, the economists was the one who knocked on the door and asked for the ticket. and with the stolen ticket hid in another toilet. when the real conductor came along, for sure the mathematicians will get kicked off the train. kih kih kih.
same answer.. the economist r the one who knock on the door n took the tix.. they r gonna hide in another toilet waiting for the conductor
Not naughty lah.. ..no lah winnie, no need to "kill" me; if so angelatby will have to look for a commentator replacement..hehe j/k..just having a bit of fun to lighten up this thread....i tease and "shoot" for fun.. ..yeah, with Linus answering all these questions and riddles, who needs to figure out the answer(s)...The next time there's another riddle or puzzle, just look up and follow his(Linus') answer and just say "Ditto!!"...
Yes & yes Yes, and indeed you might need to take over when im not around, somewhere next month Yes too, Linus is smart, no doubt
