lol I know, it was a tough one. Knowing the answer didn't make it any easier - I was like, ''why is it #4?" Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image!
I am sorry. I must be explaining myself wrong. The sun sets on the west coast of America over the Pacific Ocean, not in the east over mainland America, right? Right. If that is as far as the eye can see.

At most, only one of these statements can be true, because if two were true they would contradict one another. Suppose 5 is true. But in that case it would contradict itself, so 5 must be false. Suppose, then, that 4 is true. If all the others are false, there's no inconsistency with what 4 asserts. Suppose that 3 is true. That means that 3 is asserting that 2 statements are true. But that's impossible, because they would be making contradictory claims. Similarly for 2 and 1. Therefore, 4 must be true, and the rest false. Right?
why must people proceed to stack things in front of and around fire extinguishers ? it beguiles my mind to think how completely clueless they are and how far away from them i would want to be in an emergency situation.
I guess for the same reason we don't all live underground to avoid asteroid impacts. Or stop building cities on dormant volcanoes. Events may be catastrophic - but if they're not imminent, that correlates with low relevance to every day life.

I learned to play chess almost sixty years ago. My dad was teaching my brother - who was two-and-a-half years older - so of course little brother had to play too. We didn't have a chess set so Dad cut out cardboard squares and wrote on them P, R, Kn, B, Q and K. He used to give us a chance to win by pointing out our bad moves and by playing without a queen. Later on, he bought a wooden set but one of the pawns got lost so he whittled a new one. He and my brother played every Sunday afternoon for thirty-five years until he died. My brother still plays on Sunday afternoons with one of Dad's old friends. My brother got pretty good to the point where Dad couldn't beat him very often. I, on the other hand, never improved much. But I did do some wood-carving; one time, a friend lost a pawn from a set that he had bought in Mexico, so I made him a new one; it was better than the one that Dad made.

Flat cardbord chess pieces woud add a measure of difficulty to the game… but that type of chess set was very benificial to me in my very first game.!!! Back in my teens me an a school buddy was roomin together an he ask if i knew how to play chess an i said no - an he kinda snickered.!!! The next weekend i went back to my hometown to see my girlfrind… an while i was thar i got a cheep plastic chess set an learned how to move the pieces an got a general idea of how the game was played… an then when i went back to the town i was workin in i ask my roommate to teech me how to play chess… an he didnt realy want to an besides he said we didnt have a bord or chess pieces… so i suggested that we draw a chess bord on some cardbord an write the names of the chess pieces on bits of paper an play wit that… an he agreed.!!! He went over it wit me how the pieces moved an then the game began… he moved fast an i moved slow… he even started readin a book while we played… an then after a while he started payin attention an put the book down cause he was in serious trouble… but it was to late… he lost… an immediately wanted to play agan… but i said no… i just wanted to learn how to play... an kinda snickered… lol.!!! I also hung the “chessbord” on the wall of my side of the room Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image! I never whittled a chess piece but i did whittle a knife once.!!!
