Are you a genius?

Hi every one. Try and work this out. To start the month right figure out the word concealed in the following poem. By selecting the right letters you will come up with an appropriate word. My first is in silly but not in fool. My second in pupil but not in school. My third in read and also in write. My fourth in glimpse and also in light. My fith in ten but not in three. My last in glad and also glee. My whole a season of the year. That's clue enough to solve it here.

The four humours

The theory about the four humours was important in medicine.
The four humours were body liquids blood, phlegm, yellow bile and black bile. These were connected to the four seasons.
Yellow bile= summer
black bile= autumn
phlegm= winter
blood= spring.

Hippocrates said if someone had a fever in spring then they had too much blood and they had to 'Bleed' the patient.

A review of simpson's HIT AND RUN!!

Simpson's hit and run is a challenging game with its 7 levels with mitions and races on involving chases and lots of other things that I enjoy. I think the hit and run part of it is a good idea because if you are in a group you can say theta when one of you gets bused that its the next persons go. The levels have the different character's in them like in the first level it is Homer the second level is Bart the third level is Lisa the fourth is Marge the fith level is Apu the sixth level is Bart again and the seventh and final level is Homer again. I think that this is one of the best games I have played on and is rated seven and over. I think this gome is a four star game.

Greek food

Lamb is the most popular meat. It is roasted whole at Easter, weddings and other festivals.
On some islands goat is enjoyed more even though it takes longer to cook.
Fournos means both bakehouse and oven. The bakers oven used to be shared by everyone in the community. Most Greek bread is a cream colour. The usual shape is large and round and is cut into thick slices.
In Greece the herb Basil is used on religious occasions. Men wear the leaves in their hat bands when they go to church on Stavros day ( the day of the Cross) on 14th September. A sprig is offered to any visitors as a sign of welcome and friendship.
Some Greek honey has a nutty flavour. Some smell and taste of wild thyme or citrus blossom. Others smell of chestnut blossom. Honey is often drizzled over Greek yoghurt.

Pluto peeped at the girls through the hedge and saw how lovely Proserpina was. He thought that Proserpina would make him happy so he pushed his way through the hedge making the girls jump. Proserpina dropped her flowers and didnt move an inch. Pluto picked her up and drove away. Pluto stabbed the ground with his fork and the earth cracked open and they went to the Under World.
