This one is always fun:

A contestant in a famous TV show is asked to point on one of three boxes. One box contains a prize. The contestant points on one of the boxes. The host then opens one of the boxes he did not point on, and it contains nothing. The contestant must now choose which of the remaining two boxes to open. In order to have the highest probability of winning the prize, should he open the one he pointed at, or the other one?

</font>


The secret here is in the choice of words. Notice that the contestant is pointing on one of the boxes. If the contestant wants to win a prize, he should now choose the box that he is not standing on. If he chooses to open the box that he's standing on, he will die from falling off the gigantic prize box, and win nothing.

(Yes, I read the rest of the thread before posting that.)

Just for Noble Outlaw's sake, I would like to point out that blujay's post was in fact a joke, not a riddle.

Heh, heh, heh.

Seriously though, anyone else got a riddle? Or should I take a shot?

How do you put 6 dots into 7 squares and still manage to fill every square?

Well boy that's an easy one. After you draw the six dots, you take a pencil and fill in all the squares.

You didn't say the squares had to be filled with dots. [http://forums.massassi.net/html/smile.gif]

You put six dots in each of the seven squares? (As in, a total of 42 dots)

The correct answer is; don't cut in line!

Never mind, finish your riddle and I'll go next...I think Evil_Giraffe has got it.

who has 5 hours? you should really point out the person, rather then saying the misguided "he".

Ignore this if you weren't refering to me...


Riddle:
=======

If you have two clocks, one which has stopped and the other which is two minutes fast, which is the more accurate and why?
2004-07-30, 12:57 AM #157
The one that stopped will be EXACTLY on time two times a day.
