I can't do a rubik's cube, but I can put together those wood puzzles in two seconds.
The mind is a terrible thing.

Is it Monday?

And BTW Mike, the real question is, who gives a sh!t who owns the fish?

Took a little work, but I got it. Unlike Scott, I had to use paper and pen.

Looks like cigar smokers are smart people. Like we didn't know that already.

Thanks for the puzzle.

Hmmm.

I'm more German than anything else.

And I love sushi.

But I don't own a fish!?

after about 45 min with pen and paper at hand I slowly worked my way through the riddle thanks for helping waste about an hour of my day.

I'm lazy. No.

I always found these things incredibly boring. I'm not a mathematical/logical mind really. I like shapes and can visualize most anything but I'm particularly good with language and my mind used to be like a gawdamned hard drive but I've been dealing with data corruption lately.

wow finally got it....my head hurts

Genetic Defect · 03-11-2009, 06:04 PM

unlike all the other smart people here I didn't get it.

jquirit · 03-11-2009, 06:32 PM

Drat.. made a mistake when it came to who had the cat.But at least I knew where I went wrong with this one!

03-11-2009, 07:03 PM

I never spent the time to figure out who had what. I went the route of who didn't have things. That seemed easier. I had only "Brit = Red" for the Brit. I stopped when I figured out the fish.
