JustARandomPanda Posted September 1, 2014 (edited) Wanted to do something fun. So this thead is for a Taoism Giveaway. I'll let this run until 12 pm PST (2400 hrs) Sept. 5. I'm going to have Amazon ship a brand new copy of the following book to whomever wins. I'll even have it shipped internationally should someone outside the U.S. be the winner. The only exception being if that person lives somewhere that Amazon doesn't deliver. Embryonic Breathing by Yang Jwing-Ming So here it is: Think of a number between 0 and 200. The person closest to the number I'm thinking of will win the book. Post your guess. The winner can PM me once it's over for his/her shipping address. edit: revised date Edited September 5, 2014 by JustARandomPanda 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Perhaps that is another discussion... ∞ Yes, that's another discussion. That's the number I was initially going to use but then I was afraid that I might win.

Apech Posted September 1, 2014 does that mean he's sitting on top of the world with a rainbow round his shoulder? Oooops sorry I thought the first comma was a decimal point!!!! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Marblehead Posted September 1, 2014 Oooops sorry I thought the first comma was a decimal point!!!! Are you sure it was actually you thinking? And where is this "I" that you speak of? "Sitting on top of the world" - that's a great Bluegrass song, also done in other genres. How many more numbers are there that have not been selected yet? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Daeluin Posted September 2, 2014 0 My first thought was... oh, between 0 and 200 doesn't include 0 and 200. My second though was... oh, 0 is between all of 'em. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
