Did Wyatt leave Boston on a train traveling 65 mph and pass Lia on a motorcycle going 55 mph and, if so, who got to Raven’s bungalow first and is the blow-up doll unisex?:rotfl:

You lost me at “test”. My brain instantly shuts down. Some sort of reaction that started back in high school. 😉

I need more caffeine before I even think about reading these questions. But if Wulf is alone in his bungalow, can I keep him company?

Saw RSATs, thought of my upcoming LSATS, and went into the “rocking in a corner” panic mode.
Then I saw the word “orgasm” a couple times and snapped out of it! :wigglebrow:

Suzanne says:
LOL. You guys crack me up!
Danni, this is a spoof of an actual LSAT question!!!! (Which means I actually have the answers, Alyssa, so I’ll post them tomorrow and you can tell us how you did!) My husband just bought some LSAT prep books because he’s insane and thinks an engineering degree and an MBA aren’t enough.

OK, I’m working my way through these. But here’s a question. Are they playing musical bungalows? In other words, is it possible that a different person or people would be in the second bungalow in question #2 than #1?
This is very serious business.

Suzanne says:
All right, Alyssa!!!
All of the originally stated rules for the bungalows are in place except when the question includes an exception to the rules, such as in #5.

Alyssa says:
Okey dokey. I think I’ve got it. Don’t look if you want to come up with your own answers. (I can’t swear I’m right, but . . .)
1: D
2: E
3: E
4: D
5: A
I sure hope I’m right! Otherwise, I’ll be a bit 😳

Hi, guys.
My brain doesn’t seem to be working at all today–not even at my supposedly “good” time of the day, evenings and nights.
We’re in holiday mode here anyway, celebrating Victoria’s birthday. Uh no, not the one of Victoria’s Secret. The one who would have been :shocked: at such questions and the goings-on: Queen Victoria of the 1800s!:talktothehand:
