Correct :)

Here's another one:

Of all my siblings, which I have many,

I am the number, wise old twenty.

I always wear, my long thin hat,

And stand on one leg, I've never sat.

I'm last of last, and last of first

I'm last of the best, and last of the worst.

Who am I?

't'

Out of the eater

came forth meat,

and out of the strong

came forth sweetness.

A swarm of bees made their nest+honeycomb inside a lion's carcass.

Judges 14:18: "What is sweeter than honey? And what is stronger than a lion?"

I agree "t" works.

Is it possible to put water from two seperate buckets into one container large enough for both, and then accurately seperate the water in the larger container back into the original buckets from whence it came?

Why or why not?

Sure. Freeze the two buckets of water. Put the two ice chunks in a third container, and then return the blocks to the original buckets with extra whence.
