What the %*#@ is this???

Well depending on the bear it could be black, brown, or white. Then again there is a thing called a BLUE BEAR, which has a blueish/ grey tint to it... __________________ 1 3 5 7 9 --------- WHELMING ------------------ §=-Sp34dFr34k-=§ __________________ the bear's white; you're at the north pole. how about this: in a small village in the middle of nowhere, three innocent prisoners are sitting in a jail. One day, the cruel jailer takes them out and places them in a line on three chairs, in such a way that man C can see both man A and man B, man B can see only man A, and man A can see none of the other men. the jailer shows them 5 hats, 2 of which are black and 3 of which are white. after this, he blindfolds the men, places one hat on each of their heads, and removes the blindfolds again. the jailer tells his three prisoners that if one of them is able to determine the color of his hat within one minute, all of them are released. otherwise, they will all be shot. none of the prisoners can see his own hat, and all are intelligent. after 59 seconds, man A shouts out the (correct) color of his hat! the question: what is the color of man A's hat, and how does he know? ------------------ strength and honor __________________ The odds are overwhelming __________________ quote: Originally posted by target: the bear's white; you're at the north pole. how about this: in a small village in the middle of nowhere, three innocent prisoners are sitting in a jail.

There is 10 open bags of gold bars. each bag has over 100 bars. one of the bags is full of fake bars. The fake bars weigh less then the real ones. There is a scale. Find the least amount of times of wieghing is needed find out which bag is the fake one. ------------------ ~Reality is an illusion~ Am I a Moderator yet =) heehee __________________ A truck travels 15 mph for the first half of the distance of a trip. The driver wants to average 30 mph for the whole trip. How fast must he travel for the second half of the trip? __________________ hmmm... is it possible? i mean say the trip was 30 miles so avg 30 miles an hour u get to end in 1 hour so if u take 15mph then to reach half way u need 1 hour thus u can't have avg 30 miles in 1 hour... maybe i have to think a bit more on this problem...

A mother and father have six sons and each son has one sister.

An ambulance came and took to boy to the emergency room. A surgeon rushed in to the ER, took one look at the boy, and said, "I can't work on him - that boy is my son!". Assuming the boy's parents were not divorced, what relation was the surgeon to the boy? __________________ THe kid has 2 daddy's and it is his father. __________________ quote: Originally posted by Jeffbx: [b]...

That is the right answer. __________________ Clueless got it. The surgeon is his mom. __________________ that is one of those gender-stereotyping exercises. most people automatically assume that the surgeon is male, when actually the surgeon is the child's mother. __________________ yea the divorce thing gave it away but i have done many of these so even without it is not too hard.. __________________ This is a Classic: 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 using four striaght lines go through all the 0's ------------------ ~Reality is an illusion~ __________________ The 4 lines are connected.
