The hardest part is waiting to give hints...but that'll have to wait for a couple days at least  Does this mean a new round of guesses is coming after the hints?  Sure...I don't see why not...I'm not winning the prize, so I've got no dog in this hunt! LOL Unless there's serious objection from anyone... Not so much a hint just yet, but I will say one person was pretty close... |

So, this is the first hint...and it isn't really much of a hint, but it'll narrow it down some...and someone might of course nail it today. The weight of both pieces is actually equal to my chronological age (note that I said chronological and not maturity level!  ). I'm pretty sure my profile only shows the month and day of my birthday, not the year... |

I didn't see this thread before the hint so I'll take a couple of guesses.

That is definitely not a legitimate hint  I think I'm going to stand pat with my three guesses  |

Guess another 3 times, Tommy. If you would have picked the right number, the contest would already be over! OK, good point ... based on the young pup in the avatar picture, I will go with: 27.5 29.0 31.5 |

Guess another 3 times, Tommy . If you would have picked the right number, the contest would already be over! OK, good point ... based on the young pup in the avatar picture, I will go with: 27.5 29.0 31.5 One thing I've had going for me...for quite awhile...is I don't look my age...and according to my wife, I don't act it either... LOL So, I meant to post this other "hint" this morning...so, Tommy and oregon your guesses from today won't count against you. Hint #2 - the weight of the petrified wood (as well as my age) is within 16 of the average of ALL the guesses made up until the time I'm posting this... (We'll see who wants to do the math! LOL - Someone should get this today...) |

LOL - Someone should get this today...) Oh, now I got in big trouble once, guessing my boss's age... I aged him by about 10 years. We laugh about it now, but I never forget making that mistake! LOL Plus, there is a question nobody has asked--how old is your avatar picture? LOL Anyway, I hate math, so I'm just going to make three guesses... 40.4 43.3 46.1 Thanks for the fun contest! |

So, I meant to post this other "hint" this morning...so, Tommy and oregon your guesses from today won't count against you. I'm good thanks. I figure between my high guesses yesterday and low guesses today I'm about as close as I'm gonna get |

I will also say there's a tie right now...two people are both equidistant from the correct answer... |
