  • A little teaser for you?

    I am going to bed now but I leave you with this mathematical teaser. A little tougher than my previous three questions but I am certain one of you will get by the time I get up.

    ~*~*~

    A local farmer wants to buy new chickens, pigs, and horses. A new chicken costs 50 pence, a pig £3, and a horse £10.

    The farmer sends his son to market with exactly 100 pounds with instruction to buy exactly 100 animals, but in such a way that he has at least one of each kind of animal.

    The Question: How many animals, of each kind, must farmer’s son buy ?

  • Some more late night thinking?

    A few more easy ones and maybe later some a bit harder – mind you I say that and you guys normally get them within the first 60 seconds.

    Just three to start.

    ~*~*~*~

    Even if they are starving, natives living in the Arctic will never eat a penguin's egg. Why not?

    Why are 1990 American dollar bills worth more than 1989 American dollar bills?

    There is a house with four walls - each wall faces south.

    There is a window in each wall. A bear walks by one of the windows. What colour is the bear

  • Frank why would you say that?

    Captain Frank and some of the boys were exchanging old war stories.

    Art Bragger offered one about how his grandfather, General Braveheart, led his battalion against a German division during World War I at the Battle of Bulzhit. Through brilliant maneuvers he defeated them and captured valuable territory.

    Art Bragger went on to relay how at the end of the War his Grandfather was presented with a sword bearing the inscription

    "To Captain Bragg for bravery, daring and leadership at the Battle of Bulzhit. World War I. From the Men of Battalion”

    Captain Frank looked at Art Bragger and said, You really don't expect anyone to believe that yarn, do you?

    Why would he say that?

    First correct or most original answer gets 10 points - If it makes you think mark it interesting!!!!!

  • Look at the following: 1 + 23 - 4 + 5 - 6 + 78 + 9 = 106?

    Notice that the digits 1 through 9 are used in order to arrive at 106.

    Question for you is - using 1 through 9 in order, and using only addition or subtraction, create an equation that equals 100.
