What is it?

Got a question from "fur" (jennifer), anyone has any clue, plz tell me!

Paul Harvey RIDDLE: When asked this riddle, 80%
of kindergarten kids got the answer, compared to
17% of StanfordUniversity seniors. What is greater
than God, More evil than the devil, The poor have it,
The rich need it, And if you eat it, you'll die?

Because Nothing is greater than GOD!

It's interesting how as people get older, they get fixated on material things, and becomes less apt to think creatively. This is definately a good excercise for thinking out-of-the-box. I gotta admit I had difficulties with it also. :)

behind the fridge

have been thinking of having my own blog page for a long time. since 99, i've been writing, posting, changing my icq info. sometimes, i stopped because i didn't feel like writing. anyhow, here i am again, blogging here instead of on info. hopefully i can keep up because this is a little sketch book of my daily life. maybe, somewhere, somehow, someone might come across this and realize that we are not alone.
