A little hard for you all. I couldn't get it.

It was puzzle time down the Pig and Bucket. "It's a real digital dilemma," remarked Bert as he supped his ale. Alf had the self-satisfied smile, he always wore when he was confident he had Bert over a barrel. Alf had drawn the equation below on card and given Bert the digits 1-6. Bert had to put two digits on each line, using each digit once and once only, to make a valid equation.

____ + ____ = ____


Using only the six digits and no further symbols, in how many ways can it be done?

Yes..do you have the ways?

of course

4 to the 1st power + 2 to the 5th power = 36

4 to the 3rd power + 1 to the 2nd power = 65

35 + 1 to 4th power = 6 to the 2nd power

Two Air Force pilots were flying off the cost of kuwait at 3000 feet altitude. They decided to place a little bet. One of them claimed that if he dropped a five pound steel ball from the plane six seconds after the other dropped a five pound sack of feathers, the stell ball would hit the ground first. Which of the two will actually hit the ground first?

Sorry you lose, since they were flying off the coast of Kuwait both items will land in the Persian Gulf.

LOL...I figured that the wind would blow the feathers to Kuwait and they'd land on the beach!
