tigrenokWe had arrived in Ikea about half an hour before its closing. A lot of people were already standing in the lines to the counters, and the other were coming to joint them, and almost every second man was with a (or two:) fur hide.
- Was it a global mortality of large animals which had occurred in the surrounding mountain forests? Or is it a good discount in case? - I asked.
- Why do you think at once about a good discount? - Andrey took a side of the local Lords of theFlies beasts Ikea.
- Because in the peacetime so many people couldn't decide together to run for fur hides at the same moment. Especially when the winter is almost over. Hence, if so many people are carring this fur, then it must be a great discount.
My inner intuition did not fail me: the hides were at the price of 69 francs instead of 169. So why don't buy the product at this price? How much did it cost a couple of days before - 169 or 70 - I can not say, because I have never been interested in the fur prices.

By the way, if the shop logic in the fur question is absolutely understandable, what I can not explain is the logic of local governors and their rules, prohibiting work on Sundays. After all, most of the people do not work on Sundays: it's a time to relax and take a walk through different shops. So on this day stores could get their best revenue. And it's posible to give to shops employees a different day off instead of the weekend. It can even be not so bad: people have time then to go to their bank, to visit a doctor, or to do other important things without any forced day off in the middle of their working week. And, of course, to give to the employees an opportunity to earn extra money on these Sundays, the weekends profit would exceed all extra costs anyway.

By the way, the logic of some individuals still goes beyond an possible imagination and fantasy. I had already told in one of my earlier posts about a man with stunning claims, as "Jenny, why don't you say hello to me ?!"
All possible explanations and objections, that I have never been Jenny, were covering by this monsieur with just one question: "Do you know John Doe?" Hence, after receiving my affirmative answer, thisgentleman from Paris comrade made an instant conclusion:
- So you are Jenny!
And, please, do not call this logic like spontaneous and sheer. Such kind of logic is quite another matter. For example, it helps in a test of kids development to push a rectangular prism through a round hole instead of a square one, and even to put quickly all given object into the house, simply removing its roof. The mission accomplished, doesn't it? Well done! So what are your claims? And if it was a truely answer to the given task, and not to the task the authors of the question were thinking about, it's already a problem of author of the task, and not of the person who was working hard to solve it :)

As it's well known from "Heart of a Dog" movie by M.Bulgakov, poor Isadora Duncan didn't have 7 rooms, and she had to cut her white and fluffy rabbits at the bathroom. Then I thought about another question: whom do the characters of the authors from other countries mention as the examples?
Recently, I have got an answer to this question. In order to learn English I read "Runaway" by Alice Munro. The main character of the trilogy - Juliet - entered into an argument with her mother's minister of the importance of religion and faith. And whom he had brought as the example to Juliet? Henry Ford! What is the logic, and why it was Henry Ford - none has realized, including Juliet herself.
By the way, a little bit about the logic of the art called "movie". Not so long time ago I watched the movie named "Criminal talent". The movie is pretty good, in the sense that it tightens and doesn't let leave until the end, and the psychological component, on which this film is based, is not bad either. But the plot itself ... What does the author used to smoke?! The group of detectives is going to find a dangerous girl-fraudster, and at the same time the group doesn't include any woman? Would you like me to tell you that's going on after? Or it's clear, that this Fröken fraudster, under the pretext to change her clothes, run away? I got this as a very possible kind of development immediately,and not only because it wasn't even the end of the first part then, while the team of experienced investigators were as surprised, as somebody pulled of an empty hat a pair of rabbits, which Isadora Duncan had left alive at the lack of time.
Well, let's suppose that these invistigators were in hurry and coundn't find any of woman working at their department, or all of ladies has disappeared at once in an unknown direction. But why they didn't cut off the loud music at the entrance to the department, and didn't look for the second exit, which was not very hidden behind a rack hanging on the wall? However, if they had done this, the film would have been much shorter.

And fanally, if I have already started writing about the logic of the art, it is impossible to ignore such a great exammmmmmmmple:
