Maryland CCW Seminar, April 22nd

[John H. Josselyn-Legislative VP]

Weekend Project & Change of Pace

For those who enjoy math and riddles:

13-8-2+5-5-1+24-20-3+79-53-9 = ?

1. What does the equation represent?
2. What is the significance of the number “1”?
3. What is the significance of the number “4”?
4. Why is the number “4” twice as significant as the number “1”?
5. The number “18” is an important number; why is it missing from the equation?

Give this some thought - the answers are as simple as they are surprising.

Answer the questions correctly and post them on this thread (to eliminate any question as to who solved the riddle first) and you win a free box of pistol ammunition (your choice of caliber, type and brand) on me. Answers must be posted by midnight Monday May 1st.

The answers will appear in the May 2nd AGC Legislative Report.

Simple? Yeah, I'd be surprised if they were simple.

Guess I gotta tune in, I'll never get it.

How about if we get to ask a few questions......

For example (as an example ONLY; if you agree to answer any questions to give clues then I might not want this counted against us!)

1. Would you have to be an AGC member to know the answers?

2. Are the equations related to the seminar, ccw in general, this particular thread, Md politics, how many pimples are on a 12 year old's face.....I think we would need at least some point to begin with.

Your choice as to whether or not you want to provide some direction of course......but I think more people would participate if they at least had an idea where to start.

Oh, for the record, I hate math and riddles.

Spot77's Questions

How about if we get to ask a few questions......

For example (as an example ONLY; if you agree to answer any questions to give clues then I might not want this counted against us!)

1. Would you have to be an AGC member to know the answers?

NO

2. Are the equations related to the seminar, ccw in general, this particular thread, Md politics, how many pimples are on a 12 year old's face.....I think we would need at least some point to begin with.

YES (to all but the zits)

Your choice as to whether or not you want to provide some direction of course......but I think more people would participate if they at least had an idea where to start.

This is going to be difficult to answer with giving away the answer. A curse upon thee Spot: May you always own too many guns to clean in only one day!

Here goes:

The equation is the problem, but it is not an insoluble riddle. It is easy to understand, but difficult to solve. If you understand the equation, you will see the problem. If you can identify the problem, you can work on a solution. If you work hard on the solution and succeed, good things will follow.

Oh, for the record, I hate math and riddles.

WE AGREE ON SOMETHING! But this is a lot more entertaining than trying to figure out why the DNR won't allow you to hunt deer with a mortar during muzzleloader season!

 

[Semper Vigilo]

You sure about the mortar thing?

So much for hitting it, gutting it, and punting to the bed of the pickup in one shot.

I suppose that the Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch is right out then. Anyone got a recent copy of the Book of Armaments?

That's the nicest thing anybody has said to me all year! I'd have to think really hard to count them all up, but I think I'll need that curse to put me over the edge.

Oh c'mon! THAT would be hilarious.....:House Bill 1234 "Hunting with Small Explosives"....can you see Chairman Vallario trying to keep a straight face while we testified in favor of that?

Ceasefire Md's opposition testimony, "The state of Texas has seen a 2,000% increase in drive-by mortar attacks since passing similar legislation in 1792. These rapid fire, highly concealable death machines are the weapons of choice for homicidal middle aged white men intent on murdering the young babies of Baltimore City! These weapons of mass destruction are easily available through the gun show loophole and can be bought for as little as $4.99 each...the mere cost of a tall Starbucks double espresso mango-vanilla latte"
