I will assume that I should ask the next one. An easy one but I want both correct answers. I have a log of wood eight feet long. I cut it exactly in half. I then cut those two pieces exactly in half. I then cut those pieces exactly in half. How long is each piece of wood?
What was it that William the Bastard did that was described as his 'cruelest act and a stain upon his soul'? Am looking for what he did, the name commonly used to describe what he did as well as to whom he did it.
