So there
Ok folks, apparently I hadn't anticipated the time it would take to get everything packed for semester break after returning from the visit with the grandparents. Hence no post. I'm leaving here shortly (which means this computer is going to have to be packed up), but I'll leave you this tidbit as your...
Thought for the Day
(Grandma said this was from a 1979 reader's digest, I believe.)
Ole Santa's pack held 30 toys
Made by his elfin crew;
And though none made the same amount,
Each elf made more than two.
The elf named Cher made one more toy
Than the elf, who dressed in reds,
But Cher made one less Christmas toy
Than the elf who made the sleds.
Spry Johnny Elf made racing cars;
Five toys were made by Jane.
The elf who dressed in yellow suits
Made each and every tram.
The elf who always dressed in green
Made one-third as many as Sue.
Cute Marcia Elf was dressed in orange,
And one elf dressed in blue.
The elf who made the spinning tops
Made the most toys of them all.
Another perky, smiling elf
Made each and every ball.
Ole Santa's pack held 30 gifts
All tagged for girls and boys.
From the clues that you've been given,
Now tell who made what toys!
First one to comment on the solution wins a virtual pat-on-the-back from yours truly.
P.S. For those of you who may have listened to my mp3 stream of my piano playing, it will most likely be down for the next month, or at least until I can figure out how to stream past my router at home.
