Simple... Like the above question asks.
How do you pronounce Louisville... You know, the capital of Kentucky. 😉 😜

Autumn... September...
Actually, mid-May to mid-June is rather awesome...
10 minutes ago, Jauronimo said:Living in Texas has flipped this question on its head for me. Although I still have the instinct and feel the pressure to make the most of a fleeting summer, summer is the new winter. You mostly stay inside and ride it out. Spring is actually awesome, all two weeks of it, unlike that disgusting few months of frozen mud we called Spring in WNY. Fall is like the peak of WNY summer down here which is great except the amazing weather lines up with a busier time of year work wise. Winter is typically a non-event, save for the occasional national emergency if we get a millimeter of snow. I'm gonna say September.
3 seasons way up North:
Winter
Mud
August

Is the capital of Kentucky pronounced Lu-is-ville or Lu-ee-ville?

Let's ask those who live in Carmel, California.
Uh, how about we ask the people in Carmel, Indiana, that would be more acceptable.

I say CAR-mel corn.
But I also say CARE-a-mel apple.
It’s a stupid word and I hate the Germans for inventing English.
Your German animus is not bona fide and should contain caveats because surely the consensus doesn't agree with you.
😏
Ergo, your German hate is simply wrong... lol

With every turn of the timer, you spent two seconds +/- That’s not EXACTLY 15 minutes.
I smell what you're sous veedin'!
AND sand isn't even! Anyone check the relative humidity & ambient temp around those minute glasses?😉

Start them both at the same time without the egg in the water.
When the 7 minute glass is empty, flip the 11 minute glass (which has 4 minutes left on it) and drop teh egg in the water.
When the 11 minute glass is empty, flip it over and cook for 11 minutes in addition to the 4 minutes you've already done.
That'll do!
Yet, without having to wait 7 extra minutes to drop egg:
Start both glasses as you start boiling the egg.
After the 7-minute glass runs out, turn it over to start it again.
Four minutes later, when the 11-minute hourglass runs out, turn the 7-minute glass again.
Wait for the 7-minute glass to run out, which will take another 4 minutes and get you to exactly 15 minutes of boiling time.

Unless you start at the North Pole... Your campsite is on the North Pole.😉

For one thing your at the wrong campsite
Nope. Take a look at Simon's picture... There's only one place on earth that has bears AND you'd be back at your own campsite if you followed those directions...
If it was frozen though. 😉

No cheating either:
🤣

Ok Mr.Smartypants @BringBackFergy & my math guru @Mike in Horseheads... Have at it!
If you have a 7-minute hourglass and an 11-minute hourglass, how can you boil an egg in exactly 15 minutes?
😄

I left my campsite and hiked south for 3 miles. Then I turned east and hiked for 3 miles. I then turned north and hiked for 3 miles, at which time I came upon a bear inside my tent eating my food! What color was the bear?

What's a pirate's favorite letter?
A red house is made from red bricks. A blue house is made from blue bricks. A yellow house is made from yellow bricks. What is a green house made from?

An easy one:
The water level in a reservoir is low but doubles every day. It takes 60 days to fill the reservoir. How long does it take for the reservoir to become half full?

My father showed me something about that a long time ago. Don’t you turn the pack upside down and there’s a little guy in the camel’s body?
Sorta...

How many e's appear in back passage?
Like @Simon said... Walk around corner (turn back around) and stay at the oasis if you're in the desert... lol

I’ll stick with my answer. The bulb that is hot to touch but off is switch one. The bulb that’s on is switch two and the bulb that’s off is switch 3.
Yup! Now solve the desert test above. 😉😜
-
Just now, BringBackFergy said:
Are they regular light bulbs or LED? If regular, turn one switch on for three minutes, then off. Turn the next one on and leave on. Keep the last one off. ??
I thought of that! 😆... I smell what you're grillin'!! 😉
Incandescent.😏

My father smoked Camel regular cigarettes for years... He always asked... You're lost in this desert with the camel... What do you do to survive?
