Trivia Challenge
This residence has 147 windows, 412 doors, and 28 fireplaces.
It takes 570 gallons of paint to maintain its exterior. What is it?

I have no idea.... anyone???

It's the white house, I'm almost sure, i remember reading something about the 570 gallons in a tidbits newsletter.

Thanks, that does make sense though. I was thinking a hotel or something but thought it had to be more complicated than that.

Did you help Jennifer with her homework "logic puzzles" too? I think I remember you answered one of them. Definately not my cup of tea, I suck at them. Mark's good at them but not me.

Thanks for the help Allie.

I don't know if it's considered cheating but if you google that sentence you posted the White House does come up ss the answer.

Don't you love Google?

I figured the white house, I just didn't think I was right. Way to show me up Allie.

Debbie's a cheater! hah, I'm going to remember that next time though.....

I didn't even think about googling it, I just figured somebody here would have the answer. Someone always does.

I just can't believe it has that many rooms and bathrooms. People are living in he*l holes, trying to make it and they get that many rooms? Doesn't make sense to me, but that's a whole different subject <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0">.

Thanks for the answer.

Sorry, that was me. I jumped on the comp. upstairs really quickly while I was doing laundry.
