For those of us who have too much time on our hands....

http://www.mentalfloss.com/blogs/archives/13451/1/

Today's challenge is to go to the above "mental floss" site and enter the "mental treasure hunt" challenge. As my title suggests, this is something for those of you who have too much time on your hands.

Each day there are posts with clues that ask the question, "one of these things is not like the others" and it's up to you to decide which one isn't like the others. This whole thing is fully explained at the "mental floss" site, so go, read, do.

Why?? Well, if you visit the site daily, decide which item/book etc is different than the others, keep track of your answers and then at the end of the week answer the trivial question using your clues from each days treasure hunt, you will win, WAIT FOR IT..............WAIT FOR IT............your choice of any book, t-shirt etc. from their website store. Now I tell you, is that REAL INCENTIVE or what?? So GO, READ, SOLVE, DO, WIN.

I expect one of my readers to be THE WINNER, so don't let me down, folks. I know I have the most intelligent group of readers in the blogisphere, so "go gitum". GO Team GO!!!

I await the announcement that you have won and expect a picture or at least a link to what it is that you chose as your prize.

Am holding my breath here, so go, girls and boys, men and women,

Mary
