I am way over 35 and I have no idea what ir means. By the way it is exactly 41.6 degrees right now. Odd?

Sing a song of sixpence a pocket full of rye,
Four and twenty blackbirds baked in a pie.
When the pie was opened the birds began to sing,
Oh wasn’t that a dainty dish to set before the king?
The king was in his counting house counting out his money,
The queen was in the parlour eating bread and honey
The maid was in the garden hanging out the clothes,
When down came a blackbird and pecked off her nose!

Here's a clue: 1,000 divided 24 = 41.67

That and some rye should help you out!

1000 / 24 = 41.6

“Four and twenty blackbirds baked in a pie” from the old nursery rhymne, “Sing a Song of Sixpence”.

Sing a song of sixpence a pocket full of rye,
Four and twenty blackbirds baked in a pie.
When the pie was opened the birds began to sing,
Oh wasn’t that a dainty dish to set before the king?

The king was in his counting house counting out his money,
The queen was in the parlour eating bread and honey
The maid was in the garden hanging out the clothes,
When down came a blackbird and pecked off her nose!

Hmmm...I was going to say over 45 but didn't think that would be correct. Maybe I was wrong.

Sing a Song of Sixpence

Sing a song of sixpence
A pocket full of rye
Four and twenty blackbirds
Baked in a pie

When the pie was opened
The birds began to sing;
Wasn't that a dainty dish,
To set before the king?

I click "view replies" before posting, I see you have been enlightened many, many times already, so I'll not add to it.
