At Coney Island (the amusement park in Ohio) over Memorial Day weekend I saw a changing station in the men’s bathroom. A clever fellow had scraped off some letters to make the changing station read, “Turd Station”. What was the original name of the changing station?
During lunch hour a group of boys from Mr. Bryant’s homeroom visited a nearby grocery store. One of the five took an apple.
Jim said, “It was Hank or Tom”. Hank said, “Neither Eddie nor I did it.” Tom said, “Both of you are lying.” Don said, “No, one of them is lying, the other is speaking the truth.” Eddie said, “No, Don, that is not true.” When Mr. Bryant was consulted, he said, “Three of these boys are always truthful but two will lie every time.”
Tom took the apple Jim was telling the truth Hank was telling the truth Tom was lying Don was lying Eddie was telling the truth (three telling the truth and two lying)

Braille was based on a tactile military code called night writing, developed by Charles Barbier in response to Napoleon’s demand for a means for soldiers to communicate silently at night and without light. In Barbier’s system, sets of 12 embossed dots encoded 36 different sounds. It proved to be too difficult for soldiers to recognize by touch and was rejected by the military.
