Currently I am resting on my side
But soon I will continue my stride

Yet I am the greatest traveler of all

True or False -- One Indiana town is called Santa Claus?
Solution

Friday, December 23, 2011

I have, in a sense, everlasting life.
My brothers grow old and brittle while I stay ripe.
I am greatly appreciated and adorned with jewels,
and my head has a crown, it's beautiful.
For most of my life I have braved cold, or heat,
but where I am taken it's always warm,
But my fame cannot last.
The jewels are taken off, along with my crown,
and I am shunned until my successor arrives
in one year.

Last Week's Solution-$62. Work backwards, is the easiest way to get the answer.
If he has no money left over, then at the last store, he came in with $2. Half of 2 is 1, and he paid one dollar more than that, $2. Reiterating:
2 + 1 = 3 * 2 = 6
6 + 1 = 7 * 2 = 14
14 + 1 = 15 * 2 = 30
30 + 1 = 31 * 2 = 62.
$7.50 - $25 - $30 - $46 - $62
