so i am contrib, so i shall celebrate this historic day by declaring a major historic break through and a few problems

Historic Break through:
I DECLARE THIS DAY AS "UPLOAD MY PICTURE DAY!!!"

Problems:
(VERY VERY VERY VERY VERY VERY.... EASY)
Anna has 1337 marbles (holy crap that's a lot of marbles). She is coloring them such that the first one she colors is pink the second one she colors is yellow and the third one is pink and so on. But, even 22nd marble, she colors it a bright red. What color will her 789th marble be?

789=35(29)+19

since every 22 the colors switch around (i.e. even marbles become yellow and odd become pink) then after 35 of these switches we have the same set up as we started with, and since 19 is odd the color of the marble will be yellow.

bad physics. Relearn. Now.

I already did.

With the new quote-simulation program (read my post on james4l's blog) I can slow my computer so much time goes backwards!

Just enter it for a thread with 1 trillion posts.

Time will flow baackwards.

Only 19.99! A 5000000 dollar value!

You can go backwards in time

Unfortunately, you'll have to stay there, because you can't go forward.

Nope it's 227 now. I should create some kind of anti-F5 button, so I can DROP a blog's views

LOL at your #2...

1. By Perelman's proof, the Pionxare Conjecture is corect
2. No. The task of solving these problems has been proven to be NP, but not be P.
3. Apply an absolute zero Fourier Transform. Then, the velocity of every particle is 0. By the Fourier Untransforming Thereom, the velocity is f(R^3), where f is the Busy Beaver function (Zeb)
4. Yes. Consider the nth derivative of f(pi^e), where f is the busy beaver function. It must be an integer if pi^e is rational. But, it is positive and less than 1. Therefore, pi^e is irrational. Using the transcendality-irrationality bridge thereom, pi^e is transcendental.
5. This is a direct consequence of Zeb's conjecture.

How did you get into my blog?

IMO 2593 Problems:

Day 1:

You have 15 minutes.

#1 Prove the Poincare Conjecture.
#2 Is P=NP?
#3 Determine the velocity of every particle in Earth.
#4 Is pi*e a transcendental?
#5 Objectively show that the continuum hypothesis is true or false. Justify your response.
