When I was a little kid, every inexpensive motel in the Midwest had several of those… in my memory mostly painted minty green, but some this color.
They were old, sometimes rusting or peeling a bit… but they rock a little, and when you reach the requisite weight you can make them bounce. When I figured that out, I loved them.
But yeah… We were taught to put a towel on them before sitting.
Got to be the same artist as yesterd…. Yep… Linda Nickell.
I hadn’t seen her work before, but it reminded me of a time when artists Wayne Thiebaud and Richard Diebenkorn both taught at Cal Berkeley. Their styles were different, but sort of meshed well, and seemed to influence every art show I saw.
Everybody painted beach chairs, and landscapes with pale peach and sandy colors, very light blues and greens… big touches of white.
So I googled her… But nope, she’s in Kansas City.
So much for my ten minute career as an art critic.
But I don’t like it. If the maker of a math puzzle is too lazy to use parentheses, to show the actual intent, I’m going with what makes sense to me, which is 6 .
That was an interesting break. I’ve worked on items that were similar for repairing a C-spine. Again, it’s almost carpentry using braces and pedicle screws.
Claude’s been pushing the red button for more than ten years…..I know that sounds self-righteous and self-promoting, but as failed comic strip that never made it into print, we DID do some cool, different (I felt) stuff.
Amongst which was the red button running gag which sometimes were animated, like today’s
Took me a while to locate the start of the TWB RB strips, it might have taken a lot less time, if I’d looked at the copyright date on the strips I posted…. DOH!!
you’re sweet, but once again I assumed…..and I do apologize for having the temerity to assume that I had an original idea….I assure it was indeed ‘concurrent invention’— I had never heard of or ever seen ‘whiteboard ‘until this morning

You do NOT want to sit in those chairs on a hot day like we’ve had. Especially with shorts on!

No need here! We get those things washed up on the shore all the time!

Simplifying:
5 – 6 + 7 = 6
Precisely.
That’s what I got too…
–8
Because PEDMAS ends with addition before subtraction,
x= (20/4) – ((3×2)+7), or 5 – (6+7).
5 -13 = –8.
But I don’t like it. If the maker of a math puzzle is too lazy to use parentheses, to show the actual intent, I’m going with what makes sense to me, which is 6 .
Again, like with all of these, there’s no way to assign sets of numbers. Without any link,
These sorts of things are meant to be clickbait in (Un)Social Media (Especially Farce Book)

Yup!

I went and saw Minions Vs Monsters with friends.
It’s fun!
The Red button…
Red Button again….
Claude’s been pushing the red button for more than ten years…..I know that sounds self-righteous and self-promoting, but as failed comic strip that never made it into print, we DID do some cool, different (I felt) stuff.

of course, if “The Whiteboard’ has been doing the red button bit for eleven years, then I apologize for my arrogance
Roger (The Racoon in ‘The Whiteboard’) first encountered the ‘Red Button’ back in 2012-05-03.

But.. As I’m thinking you hadn’t read the strip from its inception back in 2002, concurrent invention is also a thing 😉
‘Doc’ didn’t animate any of his, so be as arrogant as you like! 🙂

Great button-pushers think alike. Yours are always amusing.
