I own the fish.



PS - I'd like to discuss the "98% of the world" claim at dinner tonight.

Einstein's Riddle!

There are 5 houses in 5 different colors. In each house lives a person with a different nationality. The 5 owners drink a certain type of beverage, smoke a certain brand of cigar, and keep a certain pet. No owners have the same pet, smoke the same brand of cigar, or drink the same beverage.

The question is: Who owns the fish?

Hints:

* The Brit lives in the red house.
* The Swede keeps dogs as pets.
* The Dane drinks tea.
* The green house is on the left of the white house.
* The green homeowner drinks coffee.
* The person who smokes Pall Mall rears birds.
* The owner of the yellow house smokes Dunhill.
* The man living in the center house drinks milk.
* The Norwegian lives in the first house.
* The man who smokes Blend lives next to the one who keeps cats.
* The man who keeps the horse lives next to the man who smokes Dunhill.
* The owner who smokes Bluemaster drinks beer.
* The German smokes prince.
* The Norwegian lives next to the blue house.
* The man who smokes Blend has a neighbor who drinks water.

Einstein wrote this riddle early during the 19th century. He said 98% of the world could not solve it. Its not hard, you just need to pay attention and be patient.

the problem is worded incorrectly. for it to make sense, it should read:
Day 1: "I lie on Monday OR Tuesday."
Day 3: "I lie on Wednesday OR Friday."

Richard is a strange liar. He lies on six days of the week, but on the seventh day he always tells the truth. He made the following statements on three successive days:

Day 1: "I lie on Monday and Tuesday."
Day 2: "Today, it's Thursday, Saturday, or Sunday."
Day 3: "I lie on Wednesday and Friday."

The Question: On which day does Richard tell the truth?

next?

I'm sometimes white,
But I'm usually black.
I take you there,
But never bring you back. What am I?

the detective comes in and pushes play. the tape immediately plays the "suicide note" without having been rewound first. the tape would have had to have been rewound to get back to that spot. because you can't rewind a tape when you're dead, someone else must have done it. therefore, it must have been a murder.

also, the tape would have continued to record because the dead man wouldn't have been able to push stop.

a detective found a dead man sitting at his desk with a gun in his hand, and a tape recorder was on his desk...the detective came in and picked up the tape recorder and pressed the play button...he heard "i am sick of my life. i have no purpose to live" and then a gunshot.

the detective instantly knew it was murder, not suicide. how?

i looked up the answer because it was all i could think about and i have too much work to do. that is one of my favorites so far, though.


Next:
An island and the letter "t" have something in common. What is it?

If you subtract 1, then it's 6 and no longer 7.

when you subtract 1 from it.

When is 7 half of 12?

A word I know, six letters it contains. Subtract just one, and twelve is what remains.

i love chocky

i have a huge crush on jay lynch

i eat my sleepies in my eyes

i got it right

i hate you.

Continue the series: o t t f f s s _ _ _

yeah, I did...oops..

oh okay - i understand that now. your first and last example confused me though (you skipped a step: 3 is 5, 5 is 4).

Ok, what I was alluding to is this riddle where one can reduce anything to 4. So 11 is 6, 6 is 3, 3 is 4, and four is cosmic. Or 100 is 7, 7 is 5, 5 is 4 and four is cosmic. 24 is 10, 10 is 3, 3 is 4 and four is cosmic.

N,T

the series consists of letters that are made using ONLY straight lines. (B, C, D, G, J - the letters that are excluded in the series, do not consist of ONLY straight lines).

Commonalities > Patterns

41 WOO!!! NEW RECORD!!!

carabyrd - i still don't get what you mean about 4 being cosmic. can you explain?

keith's riddle: the letter "e" (the most commonly used letter) is not used in the paragraph. as a result, the word "the" (the most commonly used word) is also not used.

What are the next two letters in the following series?

A E F H I K L M _ _

count the letters in the word and that is the number. But what I meant by four is cosmic is give me any number and I can make it to four.

Balllllsy guess RedOval!!!

This is an unusual paragraph. I'm curious how quickly you can find out what is so unusual about it? It looks so plain you would think nothing was wrong with it! In fact, nothing is wrong with it! It is unusual though. Study it, and think about it, but you still may not find anything odd. But if you work at it a bit, you might find out! Try to do so without any coaching!

It's a fish.

from The Lord of the Rings, said by Gollum (I don't remember the answer to this, but I remembered it being a good riddle):

Alive without breath;
as cold as death;
never thirsting, ever drinking;
clad in mail, never clinking.
Drowns on dry land,
thinks an island
is a mountain;
thinks a fountain
is a puff of air.
So sleek, so fair!
What a joy to meet!
We only wish
to catch a fish,
so juicy-sweet!

a shadow?

I'm the part of the bird that's not in the sky. I can swim in the ocean and yet remain dry. What am I?

that's right - why?

what do you mean by four is cosmic?

11=6
12=6

oh, and four is cosmic..

Coffee Mug.

Complete the last two in this sequence:
1=3
2=3
3=5
4=4
5=4
6=3
7=5
8=5
9=4
10=3
11=?
12=?

correct!

(comment #28)

IF said sage (X) were wearing a white hat, then one of the blue-hat sages (Y) would have seen a white (X) and a blue hat (Z). If this were the case, then Y would have been preparing for Z to stand up and say "I'm wearing a blue hat!" if Y himself were wearing a white hat. Since Z did NOT hypothetically shout this out, Y would have stood up and said "I'm wearing a blue hat!" and been correct... but this did not happen.

As a result, the only way that neither Y nor Z would have known for sure which color their own hats were is if the hat of said X sage were blue. Since Y and Z didn't speak up, X was able to deduce that he must have had a blue hat on.

yeah why?

yeah why?

why?

Blue hat.

The three wisest sages in the land were brought before the king to see which of them were worthy to become the king's advisor. After passing many tests of cunning and invention, they were pitted against each other in a final battle of the wits.

Led blind-folded into a small room, the sages were seated around a small wooden table as the king described the test for them.

"Upon each of your heads I have placed a hat. Now you are either wearing a blue hat or a white hat. All I will tell you is this- at least one of you is wearing a blue hat. There may be only one blue hat and two white hats, there may be two blue hats and one white hat, or there may be three blue hats. But you may be certain that there are not three white hats."

"I will shortly remove your blind folds, and the test will begin. The first to correctly announce the colour of his hat shall be my advisor. Be warned however, he who guesses wrongly shall be beheaded. If not one of you answers within the hour, you will be sent home and I will seek elsewhere for wisdom."

With that, the king uncovered the sages' eyes and sat in the corner and waited. One sage looked around and saw that his competitors each were wearing blue hats. From the look in their eyes he could see their thoughts were the same as his, "What is the colour of my hat?"

For what seemed like hours no one spoke. Finally he stood up and said, "The colour of the hat I am wearing is . . ."

Your breath.

NEXT

you can hold it without using your hands or arms. what is it?

some whole irony = wholesome.

a riddle in honor of KPG:

take away the whole and some still remains. what is it?

17!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh, and I am not my own editor...

40 is the record.

for a writer/editor, your grammar skills are unacceptable. it's "should have," not "should of."

ironic.

i wonder wut the record for most comments on an article is...

Ahh, man I completely forgot about that part, sigh I so should of included that...I hate editing this for length I always tend to cut out the really funny parts..

I heard he came to Stonehill because he's intrigued by stones and hills fascinate him, idk why they wouldn't include that in the article
