10 little contractors

A question like this is an indicator that you are bi-curious. Allegedly.Illegitimus non carborundum est! -
Once upon a time there was a certain ten contractors whom were paid five peanuts in the morning then five peanuts in the evening .
However one day, their Agent told them that they were now to be paid six peanuts in the morning then four peanuts in the evening.
The contractors grew very cross at this, and started to screech.
Upon hearing this the Agent offered the rather cross contractors four peanuts in the morning , one peanut at noon then five peanuts in the evening.
Upon hearing this the contractors were once again happy and went back to making merry clicking noises upon their keyboards.Last edited by AlfredJPruffock; 31 July 2008, 15:24.Comment
