You've got to come with some harder ones, J--these are entirely too easy.
Especially the last one.
"You've got to come with some harder ones, J"
Oh, this is Gary's quiz -- if I post a quiz for a free meal I'll include solving Fermat's last theorum as one of the questions. ;)
Yes, Jay, I meant to type "G."
I like Fermat's Theorem, and had solved it when I was in 1st grade, although I didn't realize it until I starting dating.
I am currently attempting to prove that every number that exists, including the non-existent ones, is contained in Pi.
I keep running out of paper; otherwise, it's going well.
I also believe that the inverse square of the sum of all primes is itself a Fibonacci subset of Pi, but I am struggling with this and I am not certain why.

Don't bother, I did that last week while doodling during a phone call.
Sadly, I think I threw out the proof along with my letter from Publisher's Clearinghouse (I may already be a winner!).
BTW, Gary tells me that the contest is still open, so let's see your entries!
#1 - blushing
#2 - obese?
#3 - Strawberry
#4 - lasso a bale of hay
#5 - tuberculosis
#6 - rare pennies
#7 - pints of beer
#8 - buttermilk
#9 - flirting
#10 - I have no idea...a moose?
#10 - how about a gun?
Guys,

#1 - blushing-- CORRECT
#2 - obese?-- WRONG
#3 - Strawberry-- CORRECT
#4 - lasso a bale of hay-- WRONG
#5 - tuberculosis-- WRONG
#6 - rare pennies-- CORRECT
#7 - pints of beer-- CORRECT
#8 - buttermilk-- CORRECT

Six out of Ten is great, Doug! We have four to go. Let me give some hints and others are welcome to join in on this:
#2- Nostradomus
#4- a sport
#5- forward and drawkcab
#10- mini-ride
I'll leave this up a few days longer, and best of luck to all, and to all a Good Day! GS
Here's my list from Friday:
1. fear of blushing
2. unable to afford medicine
3. strawberry
4. go hunting
5. tuberculosis
(Okay, so it's not what you were thinking of, Gary, but at least give us credit for having an almost correct answer. The bill we're referring to is SB08-044, which would require tuberculosis testing for all college students upon enrollment.)
6. pennies
7. pints of beer
8. buttermilk
9. flirted with girls, danced to pop music and wore "improper" clothing
I, likewise, am stuck on #10. Grr...
Okay, Gary, I think I've got #5: English-speaking proficiency. (SB98)
#2 - 85% of the world population may be reading the National Enquirer?
#5 - dyslexic?
#10 - a clown car?
Doug,
You are such a winner! (I'm ok--you're ok attitude--positive, huh?) Anyway, you got #5 right with the answer aixelsyd. I'm sorry; that was dyslexia. That leaves 2, 4, and 10 for the taking! New hints--Nah! Have fun. GS
I'm totally down to guesses now. I can't find a dang thing out there.
#2 - 85% of the world population may be (your hint was "Nostradamus") afraid that the world will end soon?
#4 - I know Huckabee fired over the heads of reporters when he was out hunting...
#10 - did the guy have a model train set or something?
