This is a question my 8 yr old grandson had on his homework tonight. I got a call from my daughter.

If Tyler had soccer practice 2 days ago and has practice again tomorrow, what days of the week does he have practice?

The day it is now is not known.

I think it would be Monday and Thursday. On Friday everyone wants to leave school early for the weekend. The day the question was ask was on Wednesday.

It's a trick question. Everyone knows that Tyler doesn't play soccer. :roll:

Duane,

It is probably good he doesn't, because I make no claim to being smarter than a fifth grader.;rasta;

Buster,

My math may be a bit fuzzy here, and I have a "little" difficulty remembering things. I just don't remember any 8 year old kids in my fifth grade class. ;rasta;

I ain't saying they were NOT there, I just don't remember them.

Must have something to do with my CRS.

But EVERYONE knows that Tyler has his piano lessons after school, on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. He doesn't have time for soccer. Besides that, Tyler doesn't even like soccer. (Hmm.... he doesn't like playing the piano either... maybe he's been skipping his piano lessons to go practice soccer, because he really DOES like soccer.)

Like I said, it's a trick question...

It's got to be one of Papee's trick questions.
