Sudoku Puzzles

question for you all - my son has just been confirmed colour blind - do any of the guys (usually guys I believe) suffer from this incurable condition and what, if any, problems has it brought them? Or does it just mean he should avoid interior decorating as a future career?!!

Fiona - On the electricity riddle I never sent you a message with my answer, so I knew you were referring to Kathy of MD who got it right! When I have time I try to figure some of them out, but I just wait for your answers the next day & "grade my own paper" as we sometimes used to More...

Hi Dixie! Where in Florida are you? It's 91F here at my house right now.

Yesterday I was buying a large bag of Purina dog chow at Wal-Mart for Athena the wonder dog and was about to check out. A woman behind me asked if I had a dog.

Good one Dorthea but I think I'll give that diet a miss, though a 50 lb weight loss would be great!!!

Love your sense of humour Dorthea

Dorthea, thanks for the big belly laugh!

I nearly fell out of my chair laughing, Dorthea. That was one of the funniest things I've heard in a long time. And I may use it the next time a checkout girl asks ME that question (a regular occurrence).

Afternoon All....Glad the storm has blown out for now...still overcast and seems we will be headed toward some very high temps in the next couple of days. There is a saying that 'If you don't like the weather, just wait a few minutes and it'll change' which seems to be true around the world More...

Good afternoon to all! Nice work on that vase, but who took the stopper out that was trapping the Genie?

Regarding colour-blindness. When I was a schoolboy, one of my heros; a friend of the family; was colour-blind. He was a professional photographer who produced the most stunning monochrome (b&w) pictures I have ever seen. He never took colour p[ictures because of his 'handicap'. More...

Fiona my son is colour blind and the only troubles he has had were 1. cannot be a pilot and 2. I once made the mistake of playing golf with him and used an orange ball as a provisional. Asked him to pick it up when my original was found, he just could not see the ball in the grass when he was standing next to it.
Apparently the green/orange combination is the most common.
