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?

Probably Vox is sick of people giving shit about lame QotD... This sounds like "Voxers! Just get over it!"
Next week, we might have cross word puzzle. The following week, we might have sudoku.
After failing to make s'more pie, I am nervous while hearing the noise from a borrowed ice cream maker...
Am I ready to accept a failed chocolate sorbet?...
Right after my recital on August 8th, I'll just cook massive Korean food which I am pretty darn good at!
How do you address some late night "noise" to your next door neighbor?
I happen to be still awake 2:50 am last night - or this morning - and I heard a female's moaning.
It was from the next apt house building, but can't tell if it's from up stairs or down stairs. My guess is upstairs.
It lasted about 15 minutes with a couple of breaks. Her moaning had really nice build up and crescendo con molto expressivo. Even some strange texture as well...
Anyway since our buildings are close enough to amplify any kind of sound between.
I've had several nights not being able to sleep whenever the tenants of this building hang out late at night. There's this one girl who has insane laughter and it can be too loud to sleep.
So how do I address this issue?
For some reason, I feel like the one who doesn't get laid for years should shut up because this only expresses jealousy? Hmmm...
"Oobleck" is a mixture of water and cornstarch that resembles a goop more than a liquid, but place it on a baking sheet on top of a subwoofer and the results are mind-blowing. Who needs CGI when you have oobleck?
From Grey's Anatomy (season 2)
Dr. Burke:
He said he wasn't the most talented student at the music school. But, he said what he lacked in natural ability he made up for in discipline. He practiced all the time. All the time, he practiced. I wasn't like you. I wasn't the most talented student in the school. I wasn't the brightest. But, I was the best.
I know it's corny, but it's a good inspiration.
"I asked to get the spelling of his name and told him I’ll be doing a press release on this," Ovetz said. "And I asked him, "What if the sticker had said, Yes to Empire, would you have still ticketed me?’ "
According to Ovetz, Officer Mitchell responded: "I don’t care if you’re a Star Wars fan, or not."
Professor Robert Ovetz was driving through San Francisco on the morning of June 30 when he saw the lights of a police car behind him.
Ovetz pulled over.
"I asked him why he was pulling me over. And he said because of the bumper sticker on my back window."
That sticker says, "No to Empire," in large bold letters, and on the bottom in very small letters, "www.thenation.com," Ovetz notes. It’s a bumper sticker from The Nation magazine.
"How could it be illegal for me to have a bumper sticker on my back windshield?"
"It’s obscuring your view."
"You’re just trampling on my free speech rights."
"No sir, I’m just doing my job."
That ticket cited part of the vehicle code that prohibits driving a car if the "driver’s clear vision" is "obstructed by snow or ice" on the car windows.
I was laughing AND screaming while watching this.
Show us something in your house from the 1970s.
Nice try, Vox! I, myself is from 70's.
Not that my Vox doesn't have enough junks, but I want to start collecting quotes and keep them in Vox.
“Three is a good number for writing,†he added. “The third person breaks any tension, and there’s always someone who can pick up the slack.â€
In the general category of Guy Skills, I'm decidedly mediocre. It is not merely that I don't fix the plumbing or rehang the door; I am befuddled by anything more complicated than duct tape. And even duct tape is a bit intimidating.
But I'm a good navigator. My brain is crammed with little magnets that tell me the direction of true north. By studying the landscape, finding the sun in the sky, examining the moss on trees, and judging the rabbit pellets and bear spoor by temperature and mouthfeel, I can reliably find the nearest Starbucks.

I can't find the clip from "Amelie", but here's the quote from the film.
Nino is late. Amelie can only see two explanations.
1 - he didn't get the photo.
2 - before he could assemble it, a gang of bank robbers took him hostage. The cops gave chase. They got away... but he caused a crash. When he came to, he'd lost his memory. An ex-con picked him up, mistook him for a fugitive, and shipped him to Istanbul. There he met some Afghan raiders who took him to steal some Russian warheads. But their truck hit a mine in Tajikistan. He survived, took to the hills, and became a Mujaheddin. Amelie refuses to get upset for a guy who'll eat borscht all his life in a hat like a tea cozy.
This is my main thought too regarding "not practiced calls", but now I have a theory.
I think there's this secret underground men's society.
When men tell women they will call, but actually don't, this society pays those men.
Maybe it's just a few bucks per "not practiced" call, but men make awful lot of money from that, I think.
The society leaves money under their... beer bottles? Not sure about that part? Between underwears? Between condoms?

It's not really BS, but it made me get through some gagging gig tonight.
So this Dutch pianist who moved to West Michigan was giving a concert and filming for DVD too. It was mostly full of musac. He was actually a good pianist, but he just has terrible taste.
Anyway, he picked some american patriotic music including America the Beautiful.
I HATE that piece. I really do.
While we were rehearsing it, this gay violist whispered to his stand partner
"OMG, my nipples are hard...!"
So from now I'm gonna call that song a nipple song.
