Well OK here's my 16 things

 

16 Things

 

1 – I learned all I ever wanted to know about War at the young age of 19, in 1952 in Korea,

 

2 – I tell all of our grand kids that I’m 39 years old…but they stop believing me after about the 2nd grade. (Do they have to teach them arithmetic so young?)

 

3 – When I was younger we had an uncle, Uncle Maurice. He brought his camera to every family gathering and made everyone smile for a photo. Lately everyone in the family is calling me “Uncle Maurice”

 

4 – My first experience with Photoshop was the 06 version. Then I graduated to 07, now I’m using CS2 and still trying to learn it.

 

5 – Clara and I have 9 Daughters, no sons, just beautiful girls. These girls so far have given us 22 Grandchildren.

 

6 – We currently have 8 Grandchildren in the 10 and under age group.

 

7 – 7 years ago, we found Santa Claus’ phone number and one of the Grandchildren has called him each year, and invited him to our Christmas Eve Party. And he has shown up every year, just for a short visit, it’s after all his busy night. He always has something in his bag for each of the squealing kids.

 

8 – As part of this Christmas Eve party, Clara has all the Grandchildren gather around a cake with candles and they sing Happy Birthday to Jesus.

 

9 – I started to work; it doesn’t seem that long ago, as a Letter Carrier for the U.S. Postal Service. I was promoted to Supervisor and I retired as a Station Manager.

 

10 – My life as a retiree now revolves around photos, cutting grass, Photoshop, woodworking, my new Sony DSLR camera.

 

11 – Clara is very busy baby sitting, baking birthday cakes (Spiderman; Winnie the Pooh: etc. I serve as her assistant and try to keep kids out of her way.

 

12 – I like little math tricks. All the older grand kids know how to multiply any 2 digit number times 11. 7 year old Joshua is our whiz, he can do it faster than I can.

 

13 – We always did things around the dinner table to teach the kids, like learning the capitals of the states. I was trying to learn all I could about color and I told the girls why the sky is blue. A few weeks later one of the teachers asked the class that question and Jean was the only one who knew the answer. That made me move up several points in her eyes.

 

14 – I can’t stand most seafood. I never eat shrimp or clams, about all I can handle is Tuna and haddock, preferably blackened.

 

15 – My one regret is that I didn’t finish college. Marriage and children got in the way of that when I got out of the service. I was fortunate though in that in my generation just a year or so of college gave you a leg up on the other guys.

 

16 – Well anyway 9 girls and 22 grandchildren later all we have left at our house is a 2 ½ year old female Yorkie that we call Zoey. She’s not real pretty but we love her just the same.

 

When I was a yoot, my math teacher had us do a research project. The topic I fell into was mathematical prodigies. There was a time when they would tour the country and make money doing math shows. I learned that while some were genuine idiot savants, some were charlatans who had learned some nifty math tricks.

 

We were tasked with giving a presentation, so I of course picked the most amazing trick and got it down pat. I brought in my dad's calculator (calculators were rare, and my dad's was literally the only one around that could display enough digits), and had someone raise a two digit number to the fifth power. Then they'd tell me the number, and I'd tell them the two digit number.

 

For example,

 

45*45*45*45*45 = 184,528,125

 

They'd tell me 184,528,125 and I'd tell them 45 after an appropriate pause. Say, 5 seconds. Actually, they'd tell me the number, I'd write it slowly on the chalk board as if I were trying to get it right, then tell them the number right away.

 

The class tested me again and again. They couldn't believe it. The teacher thought I had a plant, so she worked the calculator herself.

 

Then she demanded how I did it. I refused to tell her until she'd promised to give me an A. Then I took her out in the hall and told her. The next day she came in and did it.

 

In the course of my research, I also learned to "cast out nines" and to tell if a three digit number is divisible by 11. This last thing I still do whenever I see a license plate (in Texas, they generally have three digit numbers in them).

 

Good times.

 

BTW, if you want to see the trick, click here. I'm keeping it hidden so that you can think about it before you learn the answer.

Fast Math Tricks - Multiplication of Two Digit Numbers - Quick Mathematics Tips for Everyone

Boston cream pie, made by my dad and me ^_^

 

Even though it's a cake, not pi, you can still do math tricks with it. Just make sure the disappearing act happens over a healthy period of time (er, did I say healthy? I meant safe, as in "before the others can get to it").

Figure eight as double four

Figure four as half of eight

If you skate, you would be great

If you could make a figure eight

That's a circle that turns 'round upon itself

 

1 x 8 is 2 x 4

4 x 4 is 2 x 8

If you skate upon thin ice

You'd be wise if you thought twice

Before you made another single move

  

1 x 8 is 8, 2 x 8 is 16

3 x 8 is 24, 4 x 8 is 32

And 5 x 8 is 40, you know

6 x 8 is 48, 7 x 8 is 56

8 x 8 is 64, 9 x 8 is 72

And 10 x 8 is 80, that's true

  

11 x 8 is 88, an' 12 x 8 is 96

Now here's a chance to get off

On your new math tricks

'Cause 12 x 8 is the same as 10 x 8

Plus 2 x 8

80 plus 16: 96

  

1 x 8 is 8, 2 x 8 is 16

3 x 8 is 24, 4 x 8 is 32

And 5 x 8 is 40, you know

  

Figure eight as double four

Figure four as half of eight

If you skate, you would be great

If you could make a figure eight

That's a circle that turns 'round upon itself

  

Place it on it's side and it's a symbol meaning infinity

Figure eight, as double four.

Figure four, as half of eight.

If you skate, you would be great,

If you could make a figure eight.

That's a circle that turns 'round upon itself.

 

One times eight is two times four.

Four times four is two times eight.

If you skate upon thin ice,

You'd be wise, if you looked twice

Before you made another single move.

 

One times eight is eight, two times eight is 16

Three times eight is 24, four times eight is 32

And five times eight is 40, you know.

 

Six times eight is 48, seven times eight is 56,

Eight times eight is 64, nine times eight is 72,

And ten times eight is 80, that's true.

 

Eleven times eight is 88, and twelve times eight is 96.

Now here's a chance to get off on your new math tricks:

'Cause twelve times eight is the same as ten times eight

Plus two times eight:

  

One times eight is eight, two times eight is 16

Three times eight is 24, four times eight is 32

And five times eight is 40, you know.

 

Figure eight, as double four.

Figure four, as half of eight.

If you skate, you would be great,

If you could make a figure eight.

That's a circle that turns 'round upon itself.
