It was a beautiful sunny morning. The air was fresh and a mild wind was blowing against my wind screen. I was driving from Bangalore to Brindavan Gardens. It took me 1 hour and 30 minutes to complete the journey.
After lunch I returned to Bangalore. I drove for 90 minutes.

You have poor decision making skills when it comes to driving destinations. That is how I explain that you chose to go to Brindavan Gardens for lunch. Then again, you live in Bangalore, so there's clearly no accounting for taste. As for the driving times, one would likely expect there to be some variation in times due to traffic fluctuations, etc. The fact that both trips took you EXACTLY the same amount of time is rather extraordinary, but likely a chance occurrence. But that would first require the readers to realize that 90 minutes and an hour and a half are exactly the same amount of time. I infer that you were hoping for someone to try to explain a discrepancy in the times, if they didn't realize this fact, but it's much more difficult to explain how they ended up being the SAME.

Three friends namely George, Michael and Robert are friends.
George is a widower and lives alone with his only daughter who takes care of him.
Michael is a bachelor and his niece cooks for him and looks after his house.
Robert is married to a charming lady called Christina and they live together in a large apartment in the same town.
Christina suggests that all of them could stay together in a single house and share monthly expenses equally. During their first month of living together, each person contributed $1025. At the end of the month, it was found that $4068 was the total expense so the remaining amount was distributed equally among everyone. The distribution was such that everyone received $8 each.

Not so long ago, I came across a very disturbing scenario, which for a few minutes shocked me.

What I saw was adults holding children, waiting their turn. The children are handed (one at a time), to a man to hold them whilst his female compatriot shoots them. Normally when children are taken away from their parents, they usually start to cry. This man was so caring that he would try to stop the child crying before his colleague shoots the child.

Can you explain what is going on?
