I Bet You’ll Get It - No Peeking!

 

I am only sharing this with my smart friends.   I could not figure it out and had to look at the answer.  If you can figure out what these words have in common, you are a lot smarter than I am.

 Are you peeking or have you already given up?

 Give it another try . . .

 You will kick yourself when you discover the answer.
 Go back and look at them again; think hard.

 

 



 Answer:
 In all of the words listed, if you take the first letter,
 place it at the end of the word, and then spell the
 word backwards, it will be the same word.

 Did you figure it out? Even if you didn't, don't worry.
 Just share it with other people and stump them; then,
 you'll feel better, too.

 


 

The mind of 6-year-olds

 

A 1st grade school teacher had twenty-six students in her class.  She presented each child in her classroom the 1st half of a well-known proverb and asked them to come up with the remainder of the proverb.  It's hard to believe these were actually done by first graders. Their insight may surprise you.   While reading, keep in mind that these are first-graders, 6-year-olds, because the last one is a classic!

HEMA is a Dutch department store. The first store opened on November 4, 1926, in Amsterdam . Now there are 150 stores all over the Netherlands. HEMA also has stores in Belgium, Luxemburg, and Germany. In June of this year, HEMA was sold to British investment company Lion Capital. 

Take a look at 
HEMA's product page. You can't order anything and it's in Dutch but just wait a couple of seconds and watch what happens.

This company has a sense of humor and a great computer programmer.
