Anticipating rapid growth during 2011 and 2012 caused by a planned increase in website content and stepped-up marketing efforts, Hermann Hearsay today announced the purchase of new high-powered Toshiba laptops for our entire staff.  Each computer will have the new Microsoft Windows 7 operating system, the latest version of Intel processor chips, cutting edge McAfee security protection, limitless memory, etc.  You name it, our computers are going to have it!  We're also going to install invasive "cooking" cleaning software from CCleaner.com on each machine as well as the latest "troll tracking" software available from StatCounter.com.  "Cookie Monsters", trolls and hackers beware!  We are going to protect our company owned computers and bloog sites, and we are going to advise our loyal readers what they can do to protect their personally owned computers from over-zealous and misguided competitors!

Riddle Of The Day - "Bags and Beads" - Wednesday, 2/23/2011

I hadn't posted a riddle in many days when a loyal reader called to say that she missed the riddles.  She enjoys the challenge of solving puzzles and riddles.  So, as long as I have just one reader who enjoys the daily riddles, I will continue to publish them.

This riddle is dedicated to our good friend, Sharon.  And it's a really tough one!  The solution to it is very ingenious!  Sharon, if you solve it, let me know!

"Bags and Beads"

You are given 5 bags. There are 10 beads in each of the bags. In four of the bags, the beads each weigh 10 grams. In the remaining bag, each bead weighs only 9 grams. All the bags and beads look identical. You must find out which bag has the lighter beads. The problem is that all the bags look identical and all the beads look identical. You can use a scale, but it has to be a single-tray scale, not a two-tray balance scale. Also, you may use the scale only once. How can you find out which bag has the lighter beads?

(For Solution see Comment Section.)

When I think of so many of our political "leaders", the following quote comes to mind:

“Sometimes I wonder whether the world is being run by smart people who are putting us on or by imbeciles who really mean it”  ~ Mark Twain

Bible Verse Of The Day - Galatians 1:13-16 - Wednesday, 2/23/2011

For you have heard of my previous way of life in Judaism, how intensely I persecuted the church of God and tried to destroy it. I was advancing in Judaism beyond many Jews of my own age and was extremely zealous for the traditions of my fathers. But when God, who set me apart from birth and called me by his grace, was pleased to reveal his Son in me so that I might preach him among the Gentiles, I did not consult any man, – Galatians 1:13-16

As Paul is recounting his past as a Christian bounty hunter he turns everything on its head by verse 15. He talks of the God who set him apart from his birth! How can this be? Paul is looking at his history now from a new lens: the power of the cross. The shame of his past now becomes the qualifier for his future. The gospel gives us a new perspective on our yesterdays, which creates the roadmap for our tomorrows.
