Oh Joy - Story Problems
I hated story problems in school. Honestly, what was up with the train left here and the other train left here and how many apples did they each have when they met here? WTH. And this was supposed to help me in my life how? By the way, you know how people say, I heart you? But it's the picture of a heart. Is there anything for the word detest? If there is, will you let me know. Thanks In order to bring you a little bit of agony today, I'm going to give you a story problem pop quiz. I, at least, had a 1 in 3 chance of getting the answer right if they were multiple choice answers. So I will also give you those. See how nice I am. Problem 1A girl places an ad on a local site kind of like Craigslist. Hubby calls on said ad. Asks girl for directions. Takes said directions and off we go, into the wild black yonder. When SELLING an item, which of the following is true. A. Leave off porch light on very dark streetB. Live in an apartment with no easily seen house numberC.

All of the above Problem 2After driving around and finally seeing people talking outside where you can ask where in the hell you are, you find said apartment.

All of the above Problem 3You and your hubby are driving home from watching your granddaughter's dance recital. Since December in the northern hemisphere is the darkest month ever, you need to turn on your bright lights. Of course, Murphy's law says, another car will be coming towards you, so no can do.

You get done with your shower, willing you body to not "go", spot a spider right by the shower mat. Do YOU? A. Hurry and dry off your bodyB. Try to decide whether to kill the spider or head for the toiletC. Decide on killing spider first as he could hide and bite you laterD. Wish you would have picked the toilet firstE.
