Buford and Festus got themselves jobs in a sawmill.
The first day at work, Buford lost a finger in the band saw. (Luckily he started with six fingers).
I suppose that raises the age-old question, "If your glove is so big that it keeps falling off, does it still fit like a glove?"
While you're pondering that, let's go back to the sawmill . . .
The boss told each of them that he needed a large piece of wood cut into 16 equal smaller pieces.
The original piece of wood measures 8 inches by 8 inches by 8 feet long.
What are the fewest number of cuts that they can make and accomplish this goal?
