At that time you light the second end of the fuse of 2 hours. 1.5 remains on this fuse. This fuse will now burn in exactly 45 minutes |

Katie | Friday, November 03, 2000 - 01:02 pm  A little boy, Good enough Spam. Same idea |
Katie | Friday, November 03, 2000 - 01:04 pm  You have four unmarked bottles of pills each containing 100 tablets. One bottle of pills is poisoned. The good pills weigh exactly 1 gram a piece. The poisoned ones weigh exactly 1.1 gram a piece. You also have use of a scale, but can only use it one time. How can you determine with certainty which bottle of pills is poisoned? |
Katie | Friday, November 03, 2000 - 01:06 pm  SEND + MORE = MONEY Each letter in the above equation stands for a different number, and each time the same letter appears, it is the same number. What is the only set of numbers that makes this equation correct? |
Spamgirl | Friday, November 03, 2000 - 01:08 pm  9567+1085=10652 take 1 pill from bottle 1, 2 from 2, 3 from 3, 4 from 4, weigh them... if the poision is in bottle one, it will weight 10.1, 10.2 for bottle two, etc. etc. |

Spamgirl | Friday, November 03, 2000 - 01:12 pm  woo woo gotta go, keep puzzling! |
Katie | Friday, November 03, 2000 - 01:14 pm  Henry Miller and his wife, Ann, were teaching at the same college. Henry was a philologist and Ann a physicist. They were also joint treasurers and as such had control of the college's funds. At a recent annual audit it was found that a considerable sum was missing. Henry and Ann were interviewed by the police, then allowed to go home. The next morning the housekeeper arrived as usual. Finding the door to the bedroom closed and getting no response to her knock, she opened it and discovered their bodies, together with a typed note: "This was the only was out for Ann and I." The police officers were calling it suicide until one shook his head in disagreement. What aroused his suspicion? |
Katie | Friday, November 03, 2000 - 01:15 pm  Six glasses are in a row. The first three are full of juice; the second three are empty. By moving only one glass, can you arrange them so empty and full glasses alternate? |
Katie | Friday, November 03, 2000 - 01:17 pm  Rearrange the letters in the words "new door" to make one word. |
Katie | Friday, November 03, 2000 - 01:18 pm  What number when multiplied against itself will result in a number which includes the numbers (1 - 9) in foreward order, and then descending in order from the 9? (i.e., to get the number: 12,345,678,987,654,321) |
Leap | Friday, November 03, 2000 - 01:18 pm  Henry would not have used incorrect grammar in the note. Therefore, Ann must have written the note. |
Leap | Friday, November 03, 2000 - 01:19 pm  New door = one word |
Katie | Friday, November 03, 2000 - 01:19 pm  Where did the common "military salute" get its start? |
Katie | Friday, November 03, 2000 - 01:21 pm  Leap close on Henry and right on one word |
Leap | Friday, November 03, 2000 - 01:22 pm  the square root of that number which is I think 111,111,111 |
Spamgirl | Friday, November 03, 2000 - 01:22 pm  he wouldn't have written "ann and i", so someone else wrote it one word 111,111,111 had something to do with knights |
Spamgirl | Friday, November 03, 2000 - 01:23 pm  and isn't "the only waY out", not was?? |
Leap | Friday, November 03, 2000 - 01:24 pm  Henry was a linguist, he would have said, Ann and me, not Ann and I. |
Spamgirl | Friday, November 03, 2000 - 01:25 pm  i have to leave in 5 minutes! hurry! hurry! |
