Good for you, maddie!

How 'bout this one?

If you saw yourself in a mirror holding a letter d in your left hand, what would you be doing?

In each of the following sentences, you must switch the capitalized word with a word that means the same as it. The new word must sound the same as a word that would correctly complete the sentence. For example, if the sentence was "He REQUIRED the dough", "required" would change to "needed". The completed sentence would be, "He kneaded the dough".

1.He smelled the fragrant PADDLES.
2.It only held a MOUTHFUL of data.
3.There was a letter in the MAN.
4.The POST was very tasty.
5.He wrote on the STILL.

Near large shopping centre and school - THIS BLOCK MEASURES 50M X 32M X 18M - and would be ideal for the buyer who is looking for an unusual site to build a house. Would you buy this block of land?

You can't buy it, its a straight line. With only three coordinates it would be a triangle, which should have two sides that are more than the longest side, but with the numbers you give equaling two 50 M lines the land is that, just a straight line. Hey it looks like I did learn something from algebra!
