Peckhamgatecrasher Posted December 24, 2008 Share Posted December 24, 2008 If LuvPeckham's body has 8 pints of blood and he slits his wrists horizontally, how long will he take to expire versus if he slits both wrists vertically and sits in a warm bath (while pondering on Archimedes)?

Tony.London Suburbs Posted December 24, 2008 Share Posted December 24, 2008 3 people have a meal and afterwards give the waiter 10 pound each, the waiter keeps 2 pounds and gives them 1 pound each back.so all three have paid ?10 less the ?1 refund each.Thats ?27 accounted for plus the ?2 that the Waiter kept 3x9=27, 27+2=29, where is the 1 pound left over?
