Cympil Posted July 11, 2007 Report Posted July 11, 2007 You are lost in a forest.The forest is between two villages.In village "A" live only liars-they always lie. In village "B",people always tell the truth.You want to go to village "B".Then you see a man from village A or B.You can ask him only one question.Which question will you ask him to know for sure where village B is?

Which way is your village?"
Blank Posted July 11, 2007 Report Posted July 11, 2007 "Hello there you fine young fellow, i was wondering if you could tell me... Which way is your village?"But that wouldn't prove anything - if villager A pointed to village B, how would you know if he was lying or not?I'd ask an obvious question, like "What colour top am I wearing?".
Hamburger Pimp Posted July 11, 2007 Report Posted July 11, 2007 Whoever you asked, they would tell you the way to Village B, which is what you want.It's not rocket science.
Cympil Posted July 11, 2007 Author Report Posted July 11, 2007 Whoever you asked, they would tell you the way to Village B, which is what you want.It's not rocket science.Correct answer..Try this one..A woman was a window washer.One day,she slipped and fell off of a 40-foot ladder onto a hard concrete path.She didn`t get a scratch.How could this be?
Dave Posted July 11, 2007 Report Posted July 11, 2007 Correct answer..Try this one..A woman was a window washer.One day,she slipped and fell off of a 40-foot ladder onto a hard concrete path.She didn`t get a scratch.How could this be?She was on the bottom run?
Cympil Posted July 11, 2007 Author Report Posted July 11, 2007 She was on the bottom run?Correct! Are these too easy?Ok,another one...Two mothers and two daughters go to a pet shop and buy three cats.Each female gets her own cat.How is this possible?
Mr Darn Posted July 11, 2007 Report Posted July 11, 2007 Correct! Are these too easy?Ok,another one...Two mothers and two daughters go to a pet shop and buy three cats.Each female gets her own cat.How is this possible?coz one of the mothers is the other mothers daughter?
Hamburger Pimp Posted July 11, 2007 Report Posted July 11, 2007 Are these too easy?Yes.Unless you're Blank.
Cympil Posted July 11, 2007 Author Report Posted July 11, 2007 coz one of the mothers is the other mothers daughter?Correct!What has cities with no houses, rivers without water and deserts without sand?
Mr Darn Posted July 11, 2007 Report Posted July 11, 2007 Heres a math one for you...A man walking his dog on the road to, erm, Bedlington (hehe! see what i did there?) Meets a woman. this woman had seven (7) daughters traveling with her, whom had three (3) brothers, who had 2 sons each (the brothers did) These sons were also traveling with the group. each of the group had 2 pets each with them. three (3) of the daughters had ice creams, one was licking it slowly, the second biting chunks out, and the third ate hers in one mouthful. Now, 1,How many Animals were traveling to Bedlington in that group?And 2, which one of the three daughters eating ice-cream was married?

Hamburger Pimp Posted July 11, 2007 Report Posted July 11, 2007 Actually, if it was a married woman from Bedlington, the wedding ring probably came off the moment they left the town.Eh?Eh?
