It works better in German no doubt but it's still a good joke. I like that kind of sideways stuff. Stoned logic or whatever it is. In honour of thread did you know that one in five Brits can't swim... bit of a drawback for an island nation I'd say.

[color:#000099]I knew about the history of remedies/cure alls before the establisment of the FDA, but I didn't know that coca leaves are still in Coca Cola[/color].



When launched Coca-Cola's two key ingredients were cocaine (benzoylmethyl ecgonine) and caffeine. The cocaine was derived from the coca leaf and the caffeine from kola nut, leading to the name Coca-Cola (the "K" in Kola was replaced with a "C" for marketing purposes).

pie is a 3D object, so one cut per axis should do the trick. (there was no clause that every piece should have cream on it...)

Simple - make a x-cross(2 movements) and you got 4 pieces. Then, make a horizontal cut through the cake and you get 8. 3D cutting is required here which is the catch in the whole task.

Guess there are tons of heated discussion about these sorta things.
My best bet on that one is that the thingies keep their eyes open(duh, they lack eyelids), so even if they rest somehow it'd rather classify as trance or something of that sort.Yup, there's always a catch.
