How can it get any better than THIS!?

I'm thinking of a number between -14 and 21.3--first person to guess it wins a FABULOUS PRIZE!!

Pi squared.

Nope, sorry Diane and Kathy. And Steevil, you're not right either, but your answer is closest (at least in a conceptual sense) to the number I'm thinking of.

The Bo Derek number?

Nope, getting colder.

Or is that not a number?

Posted by: skinnydan at July 3, 2007 11:36 AM

How about 16?

Sorry Skinnydan and Sarah--neither one of you is even remotely close. Although 426 is indeed a number. Or a set of three numerals.

Can I take a second guess? How about six - the number of the wonderful, splendorific Oglesby clan!

I'm not averse to sucking up for ice cream.

Posted by: Diane at July 3, 2007 12:46 PM

And of course, I'm not immune to flattery. But no. 6 is just right out.

I'm telling you, folks, Steevil was sorta on the right track with his first guess.

How about the square root of -1, I always liked imaginary numbers.

Posted by: Sarah G. at July 3, 2007 01:26 PM

Pi squared? So this is really about non-traditionally shaped baked goods? Okay then - Bagel cubed.

Posted by: Diane at July 3, 2007 01:39 PM

Nope, Sarah, although your answer contains YET ANOTHER part of the equation. And Diane, your answer is fresh and toasty, yet completely wrong.

Posted by: Terry Oglesby at July 3, 2007 02:03 PM

The answer is one because it is the answer to numerous questions. Such as what is 1x1; the square root of one; one squared and the product of –1 x –1.
While it might not be prime it could be choice.

Wrong, Mister Smarty Pants College Professor! But it's close to the answer.
