I am a farmer who raise ducks and cows. The animals have a total of 9 heads and 26 feet. How many ducks and cows do I have?
Submitted by The BlueTie.5 ducks, 4 cows.
Deduction: you have 9 heads, which means you have at the very least 9 * 2 = 18 feet. That means you have 26 - 18 = 8 feet unaccounted for. The 8 feet come in 2 pairs which must belong to cows. Therefore, 8 / 2 = 4 pairs the belong to cows. Now that you have 4 cows, you know you have 9 - 4 = 5 heads, which belong to ducks. To verify:
4 cows * 4 feet = 16 feet
5 ducks * 2 feet = 10 feet
total feet = 26

What lesson did your father teach you that still helps you in life?
I'm not sure I tried to ponder this question much as I helped my dad haul a living room set and two dining room sets around town for my mom and my sister. If anything, I think I remember every time I'm home is to always make the absolute best of my time here. My parents and my siblings are folks I see little of, being the oldest and the only one who lives more than 45 minutes away from the nest. I value all the time I spend with them, because I get so little of it.

Travelled, loved, made friends, answered qotd.
(seriously, why doesn't the qotd say 'Write your autobiography in 6 words.' I saved 8 words from being used. ha!)
Who was the meanest teacher you had in school?
My typing teacher*. He refused to teach me anything useful. It infuriated me until I found out that after the first class, he had nothing to actually teach.
*Yeah I took typing in high school. Lamest class I ever took and the grade wasn't worth the effort.
