Mental Nuts-- Can You Crack 'em? - Page 32

In your defense, you did call this a mental nuts thread.

Mental Nuts is taking a few days off to deal with some pressing issues IRL.

7 111
5 101
4 100
0 000
... ...

The answer is that each number only changes a single digit from the previous number.

And for bonus points, what is this pattern called, and what is it used for?

That did literally make me snort with laughter.
A real in-and-out snuffly-grunt.

It's not even that funny.
But it really hit the spot right then and there.
Thank you.

classicman · 02-15-2012, 02:44 PM

Figured this was a good place for it.
I couldn't find anything with a squirrel and a tree

footfootfoot · 02-15-2012, 03:29 PM

Well, the thing is I have to find some full time work asap, as we are headed into foreclosure right now and are about 2 or 3 months behind on all our utilities. That is the big mental nut I need to be cracking right now.

Things are grim, but not yet dire. Plus I am still living in crazy town, I'm gonna leave out some of the latest stories in order to protect what little remains of my so called sanity.

I'd be willing to scan the entire book and email the file to anyone who'd like to take this over.

Sundae · 02-15-2012, 03:43 PM

Shit, Foot.

I always feel I win in the pity stakes because I only work part-time and not by choice.
And I'm nearly 40 and live with the 'rents and not by choice.
And I have no partner to share things with... ah, who knows there.

But I am supported.
I have no further to fall.
And I have no dependents; it would distress me enormously, but Diz could be adopted or even put down if I reached the end of my resources. I'd fight it of course. Still, you could never even reach that possibility about a child.

I feel for the desperation you have.

classicman · 02-15-2012, 08:46 PM

Damn fff... so sorry to hear that.
Is there any help for you in this latest bank/mortgage settlement?

glatt · 02-16-2012, 07:07 AM

Foot! I'm sorry to hear this. Please ignore my earlier coughing fit.

Clodfobble · 02-16-2012, 02:40 PM

I'm sorry, foot. I wish I had work to send you. If you don't have anything else to do all day anyway, maybe you could go to small businesses and convince them to get a website done by UT, and then be his remote photographer for these places? Sales commission plus photo pay, eh?

footfootfoot · 02-16-2012, 03:14 PM

Thanks folks. That would be sweet, Clod. I actually spent a lot of time last year with SCORE researching a business plan like that. For various reasons (I think my surgery) I dropped it.

At some point I realized I am completely burnt out on photography, and want to do almost anything but that.

I may work up a whine thread. I have emailed my new resume to 3 places I'd like to work (so far) and had a f/u call with one and was very warmly received. I need to keep my positive mental attitude and keep calling.

Let's write a sitcom. I have ideas!

I'm burnt out too.
