I would have liked this better if the first part were parallel to the second. "Practice" is clued well, but "theory" is not as solid. E=MC^2 is the most famous correlary of Einstein's theory of general relativity, but is not a theory in and of itself, and more than F=G1*G2/d^2 is Newton's theory of gravitation.
Gee, I wish I was a smart as you. I suppose I must have traded semantics against making an easy to understand teaser.
No matter what the other comment may be, I enjoyed this teaser and derived the pleasure from it as it was meant to provide. I feel no need whatsoever to logically dissect it and suggest any other manner in which it could have been improved upon. Good teaser just the way it stands!
Mr. Ix-- I liked your teaser just the way it is. Don't worry about the pretentious Dr. Norcekri.... truely intelligent individuals don't need to dissect other's achievements just elevate themselves.....
Great Work!
Great Work!
Thanks you two,
It was a shame that there is not a "sarcasm Icon" available to me as I would have added several to my response to Norcekri

Mr. lx - Believe me, I know how you feel and I am sure many others who have found comments from someone here are feeling the same way. Several of us are watching the various comments and they all tend to rip apart the teasers and suggest a multitude of ways to improve upon them or outright say they are plagiarized. Sorry to comment here, but I felt it appropriate. I did really enjoy your teaser and would not have changed a thing on it!
Your Most Welcome Mr. Ix....I enjoy your teasers, and always read them when I find them....Keep up the great work!
Very good teaser.
to hard for my little brain. But from the comments I am sure it was fun for braingles smarter poplulation.
Whatever thee outcome, this Teaser did exactly what its category requires. The clue used to create a Common Saying was great. Practice, and no work. Yet, trying to act as if, I thought of boiling and rest with the info. Great Teaser. Keep them coming.
Never would have gotten that. Well done. Thanks for posting.
